Why would Covid delay game by that much after Covid?
Most companies froze during the start of COVID. During the first few months, we didn't know if COVID was spread through air or by blinking. Companies scrambled for WFH, trying to keep workers alive while other companies scrambled to create 6-ft distances. People died. Less people went out to buy things.
This went on for a full year at minimum.
You would think that software companies could switch really easy.
You would think so, but for an industry where almost all of the work is location-agnostic, they sure love forcing people to work in offices and cubicles.
