Hero-of-Time Posted January 26, 2024 Posted January 26, 2024 Just one of many who have been hit by this. Going through the Era thread and seeing people there saying they've been given the boot, only for members to say things like "Sorry" or "All the best" is pretty rough. There's a good chance these people saying sorry were also praising/hoping for the acquisition to go ahead. You can't be pushing and praising for such a thing to happen and then act all sorry when these layoffs hit. A blind man on a galloping horse could see what was going to happen if the acquisition went through. 2

Complete tosh, he is probably getting a nice bonus after the firings for making the company more profitable. No doubt. It's bad enough that people are losing their jobs but it's even worse that some of these roles are being outsourced to cheaper, foreign labour. Would this still have happened if the sale didn't go through? We will never know but it's an awful look either way.

They claim they do, but that mask proper slipped once the victim was "That company who made that bad game I don't like". Edited January 26, 2024 by Glen-i 2 2
Dcubed Posted February 29, 2024 Posted February 29, 2024 (edited) Oh dang! That's huge news! Microsoft are crazy for letting them go, but they could theoretically work with them on a freelance basis still... or even work with Nintendo instead! Most importantly... THEY'RE FINALLY FREE FROM THE CALL OF DUTY MINES!!! Now... Can we please grant Vicarious Visions their freedom next? Edited February 29, 2024 by Dcubed
