This is what happened to me. Employers across the board need to be aware of how harassment campaigns work and do better to protect their employees from them. These people should not have a platform to profit off of harassment.

every game learns to stop chasing reddit’s approval pretty quickly and once you understand how most players approach reddit. it makes sense.

One of the producers on Guilty Gear Strive said it was basically impossible to source player feedback on balance changes online because nobody had original opinions and would just parrot what the most popular content creators said and so they had to rely on data and I think about that every day.

TGA/GotY discourse always makes it clear that:
1. There is not a singular "video game industry" (and hasn't been for a while), but instead a bunch of disparate scenes that no one person could hope to cover entirely (or realistically care about), but
2. Most folks don't realize it.

furious at this, but not unexpected given how badly the devs were treated making RDR2
BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.
