I don’t understand how so many gaming companies have gone out of business this past decade or been shuttered entirely, for example Hi-Fi Rush was one of the most popular games I can think of in the past 5 years, and just for doing well and being successful, everyone was fired. Ain’t that some bullshit? Now Ubisoft, complete failure of a gaming company in so many ways, doing absolutely horribly, their stock prices plummeting, they sound like a bunch of cringe lords especially the CEO completely blaming the gamers for having any sort of standards and not just buying their crappy products. Like, I’m sorry that we don’t want to spend 60 to $70 minimum on a game that barely even plays well and has almost no content, monetized to all hell… And you want us to be thankful for that? Like no. I don’t know how you’re complaining about that. That’s crazy to me…

But like, how are they still in business? Over 80% drop in revenue. How the hell are they not bankrupt?

    different countries with different cultures and priorities

    They’re mostly in France, yeah?

    It turns out that most European countries (and especially France) have actual worker protections, and you just can’t point and yell ‘you’re fired!’ at someone and do mass layoffs without, you know, doing them legally.
