The cycle of mass layoffs in game development isn’t a problem of the industry’s inherent “instability.” It’s a problem of exploitation.

      I’m trying my hardest to not buy any “AAA” game. The major corporations have lost me as a customer, I’ll only be buying indie games.

      … except monster hunter… It’s been part of my life too long and it’s one of like 3 game series I always play with an old friend lol

        I excuse only two produces of capitalism: chocolate, and Monster Hunter!

        Yeah capcom is one of those weird ones. Really aggressive monetization but god damnit the games are good.
