Oblivion Remastered studio is reportedly laying off 300 people
-
Par for the course after a release at many studios. The positions needed at various steps of production vary. Unless the studio is big enough to be working multiple projects simultaneously and can shift staff around to various teams, hiring and firing for each phase of production is normal.
If you want to employ staff that way go for freelance with a fixed duration contract and an increase wages to reflect the temporary nature of the work. This is how it works in the rest of IT, at least anywhere sane.

Yeah knowing when you’re going to be out of a job years in advanced would be so much better than this. You can at least plan around it if you know for sure this job is temporary.

Cool. Glad Microsoft was allowed to make that acquisition.

Make a game that doesn’t sell? Laid off. Make one of the best-selling games of the year? Would you believe it, also laid off.
It’s a waste to try, with these companies.
My ps5 primarily plays the same games I did on ps4.
We’re hitting a plateau where hardware isn’t improving the ux.
I fully expect within 10 years individuals will be able to use AI to build decent to good quality games in relatively little time.
In a similar vein I expect people will be able to generate their own media; specifying everything from the plot, actors, music, ip, etc.
These big companies replacing human talent with AI are just making themselves obsolete.

No one sits around a campfire telling stories to themselves. No one wants to have to put labour into their own entertainment time after work.

You vastly overestimate the ability of AI, vastly underestimate the complexity of making games, of both.

At this point, developers at such studios are basically on contract position instead of full time one. It’s sad

It’s not like Devs can afford to say “Hey, you! No, not you, the other one… hire me now!”
Well, if you’re ready to live without a backbone you got to be ready to take the hits and then not cry when you’re left used and abused

Nah. All you “AI slop” crybabies are severely underestimating where AI is going.

It needs to be illegal to fire employees who did nothing wrong like it already is in civilized countries

why would you want to play a game that nobody could be assed to make?

You play with yourself. /s
Either way you’re missing the point entirely by asking me my personal opinion.
I wish i could turn off inbox replies like reddit.
