The gaming industry seems to be imploding intentionally for some reason.
There's money to be made ... It's why we can't have anything nice (and also why we have nice things at least at the start).

The obvious answer is that the economy is fucked, everyone is all in on AI, and it's starting to look a little shaky.
It's a bad look in general
Not saying that is not happening, but EA is not the gaming industry, they are just garbage for the most part.
So… there’s other dumb shit happening besides this. Xbox layoffs. Sony is destroying themselves….
