The fact that business folks/MBAs cannot look more than a fiscal quarter into the future is one of the reasons we can't have nice things. We need to stop listening to these people. You want churn? This is how you get churn.

Id Software had basically its whole tech art and engine dev department killed. They were previously standing on their own engine Id Tech, now that institutional knowledge is busted and crew is told to move to fully AI-pilled Unreal. Devastating blow to games as technology and art form.

I can't help but feel that if these studios hadn't been acquired by Microsoft that they wouldn't be going through cuts this deep. They made great games with dedicated audiences, weathered decades, and could have adapted. But none of that had much to do with Microsoft selling Xbox or Game Pass.
