the worst thing for me is. Imagine you lost a bunch of expert carpenters and you had to learn carpentry from scratch with no teachers, no youtube. That’s what the industry is currently doing. just getting rid of the folks who know the craft, and retaining the folks who know how to parasite

not a fan of remasters/remakes personally, but the business case is there. this is bad business and bad leadership, and once again it's video game workers paying the price for dipshit executive decisions.

Canning a studio because you put in an amazing studio capable of bringing back treasured IP to make "a God of War live-service game" and it failing because you failed to diversify.

I dunno, you can probably save more money firing the executives that made these decisions.

The "I should start my own game studio" thoughts are hitting extra hard today.

Be prepared to see this exact same post 37 times more this year. 😩

They're building a narrative to justify the planned layoffs post-launch.

i also want to clarify that she was not stating in the interview that Ai was a mean to dump people and to replace them by ai, « it’s a toolΒ Β» she said, not like the original post i retweeted stated.
Give her that one little thing, but yeah it’s damage control into an already damaging interview.

The most revealing part is that this one went public.
Most moments like this stay buried.
But for once, a larger audience got a glimpse of what could production staff might deal with every day. And some
noticed…

But, back to my initial point: if you keep in place a person responsible for a complete disaster, it tells you that something is culturally broken.

It was just a full-blown PR disaster.
Just raw, unfiltered corporate delusion.
No media training, no lawful evil polish.
just vibing with tech bros who were just thrilled to see someone pray in the same church of nonsense.πŸ™ƒ

She later relates to some jokes to the CEO about β€œneeding to make more money”
A part totally unrelated to AI, but the mindset is the same:
Shortcut obsession, zero depth of how and the means to achieve it, especially as a business dev.

Somehow, it’s perfectly symptomatic of the timeline we’re in.
Execs riding hype waves with zero understanding of it, let alone how game development actually works, just to lure potential investors with absolute nonsens.

I can’t wait for « Life is GeneratedΒ Β»

As a former dontnod employee, I loved when she proudly explained how they would dismantle what made the studio matter and one of its biggest strength: environment art.

A true visionary.

that phil spencer could make multiple billion dollar bets, fail all of them repeatedly and publicly, and not only keep his job but continue being β€œthe face” of the xbox brand is astonishing

Thx mate, actually it changes everything.
The quality of your work increases, behaviors and interactions simplified, and while insecurities still exists because of the volatility of the craft (as always), your are surrounded with the good support, so yeah, it’s definitely something to experience :)
