Every doom and gloom article about the terrible state of the industry neglects to mention that Easter European and Asian game dev are doing great. No mass layoffs, big sales, record profits. Everywhere best the West. Gee, what could be the difference...
In reality, western game dev is lousy with overpriced activists and diversity hires, neither of which generate positive value. Companies can't come out and say that they are firing mostly useless leftist retards, so the strat is to pretend that the industry is imploding and layoffs are inevitable. The woke journos can't report that all of their fellow travelers in game dev have failed, so the story becomes "whole industry in trouble". But all of it is disproven by the ongoing success of Asian and indie devs.
I mean, it's largely women to VERY effeminate men who it's hard to tell if they are gay or castrated causing this 'shitification' of the Western game industry.
Expecting them to take responsibility or engage in any self reflection has the same probability as ACTUAL blue whales walking on land. So they'll claim their incompetence is a 'sign of industry trends' meanwhile Steam/Valve has done nearly NOTHING for nearly 2 decades and just wins.
It's a funny dynamic. The higher ups, for obvious reasons, can't say "we're firing all the women and minorities". The women and minorities can't say "we're being targeted" because everyone will say why. So everyone is just choosing to ignore the elephant in the room lol
In a perfect world, Nintendo of America would be closing shop and all operations would be moved back to Japan. I look forward to AI translations being so good that they never need to hire a leftist activist to do any work for them again.
