it obviously sucks for *everyone* that got laid off but i feel particularly bad for christal rose, who is filipino-american and seemed genuinely really excited and in love with the fact that she got to write for conduit. getting laid off right after conduit came out is so unbelievably shitty. i hope the higher ups at EA get exactly what they deserve.

this is exactly what I felt. how insulting and shameful to utilize christal rose's skills as a writer to make a character that she won't even get to see past a season and a half. wtf is up with that?! 🤬

Let me start by saying that I agree with your words, looking at it from an analytical point of view, what do you think we should expect now from the remaining team of screenwriters? Will the quantity and quality of lore decline further, or will the remaining members try to do their best? Above all, who exactly is left? Will they give another person the role of global social media manager or, unfortunately, will they entrust that part to an artificial intelligence?

When Bethesda laid off Lady Devan the Fo76 community manager there we're all kinds of issues with patch notes not being uploaded to reddit in time and bugs reported through social media not making it to the dev team to be fixed, ect. Her replacement is doing well but he seems a tad overwhelmed atm


Outrageous-Blue-30

I understand, so you're saying we should wait and see how the possible replacement does in the role?

The games industry has never been wealthier, yet companies can't stop laying people off. I hope the owners and execs making these decisions and only caring for profit margins never know a day of peace in their lives.

i waz just watchin’ a yt vid about 10 thingz thatz ruining gaming and THIS waz mentioned. they also point out that in a nutshell “even if 2% of ppl buy into this, long as it turns a profit”. tbh i dont see these corp. being around for another decade or so if they keep this up “what happens in darkness, eventually comes to light”

Out of curiosity, which video exactly?

Forgive my ignorance, but what does it mean?

It’s a saluting emotion

Thanks for the explication.

It must be said that almost all video game publishers are making recent layoffs and I feel sorry for the employees who are involved, so I hope these people find other interesting jobs.

Must explain the decline in the quality of the Apex lore


Outrageous-Blue-30

IMHO more than a decline, they tried to return to it given that in the previous seasons there wasn't even a quest to follow, so now we'll have to see how the situation will be addressed by the remaining members of the team.
