People believe that by celebrating or praising company layoffs, we are "defending sales" in place of "defending quality." Bitch, we ARE defending quality. The lesser sales happened because we CHOSE not to buy it, because of a noticeable drop-off in quality. And lesser sales are what most often lead to layoffs. We've repeatedly warned and told you guys this would happen. All of you arrogantly mocked "boycotts" and threw week 1 sales in our faces like it was some huge gottem, failing to see the forest for the trees. I don't know how else to put this, guys. If you still think it's complicated, you're just coping. When you make games that cater to 2-5% of the global population or to chase some imaginary "more diverse audience." When your games are made in whole, or in large part to spite 68-85% of the "gamer" audience... you're going to lose a large chunk of your consumers. Game developers are not the untouchable microcelebrities they seem to believe they are. Their arrogance blinds them, and they unironically believe there will be no consequences for them failing at their 1 and only jobs. They don't understand or care about the most simple, basic, fundamental arguments like "the customer is always right" or "reputation matters." And now they're paying the price.
