One of my close friends, who holds a position as a lead technical designer at Respawn/Apex Legends, has been laid off. It's really unexpected, especially considering EA's consistently strong performance. Looks like this trend might affect many others soon.

I guess he's not In The Game anymore.
Game development lay-offs have been happening for a couple of months now. They overhired during Covid and AAA gaming is on a downward trend due to corporate meddling.Into- Mountaineering, running & Djent/Progressive music.
Anti- Lack of accountability. Censorship, fat acceptance, & current wave feminism. That's why I left the UK.

EAs consistent strong performance?
Is that a joke? They're voted the worst company in general year after year and almost always voted the worst video game developer as well. They consistently perform terrible.

Welp, at least non-compete isn’t an issue.
I only read thread titles and my own posts.

OP gauges the entire market based off a guy getting laid off a company that is in the dying console industry. Strong everything. Guys, better sell off your entire S&P Fund...quick!
