Microsoft Closes Redfall Developer Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush Developer Tango Gameworks, and More in Devastating Cuts at Bethesda - Lemmy.World

Affected devs: - Arkane Austin (closed) - Tango Gameworks (closed) - Alpha Dog Studios (closed) - Roundhouse Games (absorbed into ZeniMax Online Studios) > These changes are grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games and beloved worlds which you have nurtured over many decades.

Attention laid off workers from the gaming industry:

I’m one hundred percent ready for working, complete games, that don’t require subscriptions, and can’t be bricked remotely. Make them, and I will buy.

I will buy your products. I will buy them instead of the product being churned out by the companies that cut you.

Laid off workers don’t have the ability to choose these options though. You’re talking about management/marketing decisions.
