This is just a hunch I have, but I'm pretty sure the reason why so many high-end and very well made indie games are starting to outnumber triple A games is because of layoffs like this. It's not like all these thousands of people would choose a different career just because they can't work on one specific company. And if we can get more games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, I'm all for it.
