Everyone tries to blame the suits, but the reality is that many game devs are incompetent. The ugly, amateurish, gay NPCs of Starfield are not the fault of some greedy MBA bro from accounting. DEI has polluted and diluted the game dev labor pool to the point where any compliant studio is no longer fit for purpose. It takes 5x the budget to brute force AAA western game dev now because you have to pay all of the female and minority dead weight. Commies want to blame the money men, naturally, but we had at least a decade of great games after the suits arrived. You think they want to pay a bunch of useless people? The "evil greedy executives" have been subjugated by DEI, too.
You're still in the trap by calling them deadweight. Deadweight implies neutrality. The issue isn't the lodestones and the dead weight, it's the million captains of the ship, all laser-focused on sailing it off a waterfall while you're trying to navigate choppy waters.

I'm guessing they can't even get startup capital without a minimum diversity score.
