Pretty sure its not Jim Ryan making the decisions. He’s already a figure head only.

What exactly is ‘late stage’ capitalism with these layoffs?

Is it wrong? First trust eroded, then retention and now the revenue.

This happened since there were shareholders :woman_shrugging: I thought this phrase was more about developments in the last 50 years with global operating companies.

Agreed, the comment doesn’t totally work.

I have no problems with laying off, with failed targets due to oversold achievement results

But the fact that the people laid off will not get the Sony retention payement that was provisoned during Bungie sales is the most capitalistic hypocrysis news of this year. In fact, the more people laid off, the more money is kept by Bungie management.

You just disappear to Gulag. No layoffs!

I read the article and was expecting some actual statistics of how many people were canceling but it’s just random posts from reddit

Regardless though, this company has a very tough time ahead of it

Do not dream, this kind of reaction is very overblown . Gamers do not care about social context as long as they have their drugs.

and that’s the problem because the drug dealer already delayed the goods until sometime next year. :joy:
