It feels like every game studio is laying off right now?

Right? Also I don't understand why people even try to make games anymore if the companies are just going to fire you. Seems like the entire industry would just quit making products.

Its because money men are involved. They're not places for artisans, game studios are more like setting up a heist team to sell as many copies and produce the minimum viable product with maximum razzle dazzle to empty the marks wallet as fast as possible.

It helps that idealistic enthusiastic young people keep wanting to make games for these ghouls.
