They had a real disconnect with the gamer community.
Way too overproduced, which means they’re spending more money on nonsense while driving away people who can see through it.
Honestly, no sympathy from me. Glad there’s one fewer company that’s just “checking boxes.”
Yup, at the end of the day, the community just wants content that glazes the games/devs they like and hates on the games/devs they don’t.
Doing anything else is going to make a lot of the community upset

Who’ll now provide shit takes so divorced from public opinion?
Sad to see. I didn’t love everything they produced but they still had winners. They kind if reintroduced me to the gang over at Dropout. I hope everyone lands in their feet, and it’d be nice to see some of then over at Dropout.
Should we be concerned ?
Absolutely not.
