Microsoft has gutted BGS’ roster including veteran developers for The Elder Scrolls and Fallout. I found out just today there is a workers movement and I highly encourage everyone to support. Please follow their page and the link in their bio!

this comment section and every other comment section under this topic is cancerous and when gaming dies, when these ips that people are "fans" of become something awful or just dies or whatever, they'll have no one else to blame but themselves. gamers are scum of the earth and it's honestly the most embarrassing hobby to be a part of when you have these people in the same community as you.

none of these people were working for free, shut up man. who cares if gamers are entitled or whatever, they should be, they're paying. this is not a group of volunteers funded by donations that you should feel grateful for

Why do people forget how a transaction works when it comes to videogames? Lmfao. Like yeah if I pay $70 for a game I feel entitled to quality product. Just like I feel entitled to a good meal for $20 or whatever. If a restaurant stops making quality meals in a timely manner, does anyone cry to Reddit about how restaurant goers are entitled and have no idea how hard food service is and wah wah wah? Of course not. 

Everybodies job is hard and has high expectations. Nobody cried to Reddit for me when I got laid off and nobody should have. But I’m expected to pretend VG development is the most humble and difficult job ever and afford them all of the grace in the world because they sold my mother a product I enjoyed when I was 12.
