Larian Publishing Director Michael Douse called games industry layoffs an 'avoidable f*ck up' in a new interview, touting what he says is the Baldur's Gate 3 dev's healthy and sustainable work environment.
I swear this comment was a trolling attempt or one of the bloodsucking stockholder asshats that think linear growth is a bad thing.
Well luckily every game studio only ever makes successful games and Larian will never make a flop. Right?
Just like other great studios like CPDR. Or Blizzard… Oh…
I swear people are just idiots or have zero memory.
Except the companies aren’t doing layoffs because of a flop or a bad release.
They’re doing them explicitly because shareholder expectations of profit growth were not met.
