Here’s some cool chain reference for you. I found this in Groningen, NL.

Well, whiplash! Two days after successfully launching PAW Patrol: The Game, everyone at Originator Inc. was unexpectedly laid off by our parent company. I am now open to new opportunities, especially those that might allow for growth into engineering management. reubenbrenneradams.com

Working on a new piece; thinking about star thistles, how in the western US they are an invasive and noxious weed that readily takes over land that has been disturbed and degraded. or something.
Today we say goodbye to many of our friends and colleagues and to hundreds more across Xbox, including folks that have worked at Bethesda Games Studios for decades. When will this cycle of cuts in pursuit of ever-greater profits end?
In what is becoming a stressful annual routine, Microsoft has decided to lay off thousands, including MANY of us at Bethesda Games Studios. With over 10k developers already cut from previous rounds, those at the top have deemed that insufficient in fixing their mistakes.
imagine if they fired every band member every time an album came out

I'm very sorry to announce that I was one of the devs affected by the Obsidian layoffs today. At least for four years, it was a beautiful dream. If you need a writer with experience in everything from the fog of war to romance - especially if you're open to remote - please get in touch.
So, just to be clear, Asha wants 12% of the POPULATION OF THE WORLD to be on Xbox every day?? In this economy?? When Xbox hasn't even sold 200 million units across all generations? This is just embarrassing 🫠
Colin Spacetwinks@spacetwinks.bsky.social · last mo.asha sharma going "we want 1 billion players a day" a nice reminder that these execs are fundamentally incapable of understanding that their customers do not have infinite money or even just that time is finite. they just think you haven't been fed the right marketing yet to get you on board
I really appreciate the headline here. I think studies need to be done on the CEO brain, do they think we're all very stupid, or do they have no grasp of reality at all? My bet is on a mix of both.
Xbox's CEO wants its games to cater to 'more than a billion people each day', or 24 times more than the peak population of Steam, which is delusional
Alternate title: Does Xbox CEO Asha Sharma know what a billion is?

I and a good number of very talented game devs were laid off by Obsidian as part of the Microsoft sacrificial rituals this morning. If you or anyone you know is looking for a Senior Writer/ND with more than two decades' experience in titles like Dragon Age and Mass Effect, please let me know!
Well, I've been affected by the Bungie layoffs, and I guess I'm now looking for work. I'm a senior narrative designer on Destiny 2. I'm going to thread a little list of stuff I've done on the game; normally I go out of my way to avoid attention, but today I'd appreciate reposts.
Bungie folks impacted by the layoffs: please let me know if you see anything on our careers page that is a fit for you. I will gladly help with application advice and recommendations: www.cdprojektred.com/en/jobs
