    They layed-off 300 of the studio that developed the remaster? What’s the fucking point of putting your souls hard work and effort if in the end they tell you to go fuck yourself?

      Seems like a trend among Microsoft-owned studios. Like last year when they decided to close Tango Gameworks shortly after they made Hi-Fi Rush… Which was another game they released with very little marketing or pre-release hype and still managed to be successful in spite of that.

      It’s almost like Microsoft WANTS their studios to fail.

        Why do people act like this is an issue with Microsoft studios and not with every single major game studio out there? They all do it

          Microsoft is brought up likely because of the attitude of the CEO.

          He is gone cray-cray on LLMs and is likely acting out and firing people just like that:

          Because your assumption that this is an issue with every single major studio is just incorrect

      And it’s a good sign that this kind of development isn’t financially sustainable, so I doubt they’re sitting back and drooling over the thought of doing more.

        No, what’s not financially viable is paying execs millions while laying off the people actually making the success.

          Of course it’s financially viable. That’s why they’re doing it, and they’ll keep doing it until we force them to stop. But they know we won’t do anything about it besides complain toothlessly on the internet.

      While it’s not quite the same thing the New Vegas modders are - as always - hard at work at the next best thing: https://www.moddb.com/mods/fallout-new-vegas-rtx
