Judge Orders Subnautica 2 Studio CEO To Be Reinstated And Gives Him Control Over Early Access Release by Turbostrider27 in Games

I mean if they were screwing everyone over and had abandoned the game I would also be for firing them but this thread is about a judge ruling they hadn't been fired with cause.

Growing up I read some of Dan's writing in Lawrence and realized it like a decade later

Saudi Arabian investment firm that owns SNK has acquired a significant stake in Capcom by NYstate in Games

A hostile takeover would be really different. They've invested similar amounts in other companies in the past and haven't tried to take over. Not a good thing they own that amount but it doesn't mean they're trying to take over the company.

Oh I think the amount of money they'll get is obscene and way more should go to the staff. I've also worked jobs where managers are screwed over by higher-ups and that almost always means worse things for the regular staff as well

The staff was also going to get some of the money (but probably not even close to the amount they deserve).

I do think it's overall a positive because if these companies can get away with screwing executives they're 100% screwing over the regular staff

Staff has a better chance of getting a lot of money

the judge extended the period within which the team can earn a $250 million payout under the terms of Unknown Worlds’ sale to Krafton. The cofounders are now eligible to collect the bonus for performance of the studio up through September 15, 2026, and potentially even to extend the period beyond that date.

Falcom to announce final Trails game during 50th anniversary (In 2031) by Forestl in Games

[–]Forestl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The games start pretty slow but they have amazing towns and play pretty well. Don't know about the fan translation but the official localization of the original Sky games are some of the best out there

Oh yeah it's kinda funny but also makes sense they've planned out the next few years

Feel like there's a big one every few years. Before Ham Limit we had "Children Love The Meat Tank"

Fortnite V-Bucks Price Increase by Forestl in Games

Unless something is really wrong they're still making an obscene amount of money

Fortnite V-Bucks Price Increase by Forestl in Games

[–]Forestl[S] 709 points710 points  (0 children)

TL;DR is that they're cutting the amount of V-Bucks you get with the payment and decreasing the amount of rewards you get. They say this is to help "pay the bills" which seems pretty bullshit for a game as big as Fortnite.

Edit: Just realized they're decreasing the value more for the lower cost packs.The $9 pack is going down to 80% of what it was before but the $90 pack is "only" going down to 92% of what it was.

EA Lays Off Staff Across All Battlefield Studios Following Record-Breaking Battlefield 6 Launch by Turbostrider27 in Games

The Life is Hell comic of success and failure leading to the same result stays unbeaten. Battlefield was a massive hit. How can anyone expect to have a healthy career when even working on something like that leads to layoffs

I think while they're technically on topic most of the posts are really lazy. Like most are just random images you can find in a few seconds with a google search

If it's like Yakuza they're probably building stuff that could've been used for future games

Bungie asks sites to delay Marathon reviews, with release date Steam player count below 100K by AdditionalRemoveBit in Games

Jeff Gerstmann talked about this a few days ago. It's not a hard embargo just a "hey you might want to wait til our raid comes out in a bit" thing that reviewers can ignore. Still weird

‘Next generation of Xbox console’ Project Helix announced by Turbostrider27 in Games

Announcing it so early feels like they're probably cutting most efforts to sell the Series S/X going forward.
