Yeah, I jumped ship to the government during COVID out of tech industry after a restructure of leadership and getting laid off.
I still get calls and offers from the private sector even with all the lay offs going on with very nice numbers. But I'm locked in for the end game, comfort and stability at this point.
Ho ass nikka shed tears on the TGAs when his baby daddy Kojima was beefing with Konami tho.Holy shyt......................
Sony moving like tencent.

Hey man, ain’t my fault dudes can’t keep their narratives consistent
Sony supposed to be the bastion of success and how to do it right.
In reality they moving just as bad as if not worse than some of the most hated corporations in gaming.

I agree that Sony is moving bad. But your first sentence is hilarious.
They are averaging almost one studio closure a year over the last decade.

They have canceled every project that isn’t a sure fire AAA cinematic blockbuster. Purged almost 80k employees. Crunch work conditions, and bad severance pay if any when they drop employees. Toxic culture at some of their best studios.
Imagine if they didn’t have legions of you stan’s to run defense

Microsoft didn’t get to be the richest company in the world by NOT making shrewd business moves. They don’t do ANYTHING that doesn’t make them money. That’s how business works. It’s not “bad” imo. Its capitalism, same goes for Sony, EA, Tencent, and everyone else.
Thing is, Microsoft’s money reserves allow them to be a little less shrewd than other companies. They can do things like gamepass, unions for workers, passion projects like Pentiment and Hifi rush, etc.
But if you check the online discourse you would think it’s all microsoft shytting on workers, canceling games, and closing studios. And sony is this righteous “for the gamers” company that does everything morally correct.
Even the games media was totally up in arms about the microsoft layoffs. Think pieces and cac tweets galore. The response to sony layoffs were comparatively very muted. Good guy sony always gets a pass.
