“Convergence” Painting Episode 7 of The Last Of Us Season 2 in Gouache

Krafton Delays ‘Subnautica 2’ Game Ahead of $250 Million Payout The South Korean publisher announced last week that the CEO and founders of ‘Subnautica’ studio Unknown Worlds were departing, but didn’t say why

BREAKING: Krafton has delayed the highly anticipated game Subnautica 2 to 2026, potentially costing the development team a $250 million bonus.

The studio's leadership had wanted to release the game this year but were ousted by Krafton last week.

A wild story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

To everyone affected by the recent Microsoft (and other) layoffs, you didn’t deserve this. Let’s be clear: the state of the industry right now is not your fault. What we’re witnessing is the result of consistently bad leadership decisions, an industry that has exploited its workers for years, global instability we can’t control, and the crushing pressure of late-stage capitalism that values short-term gains over people. Your contributions mattered. Your work made a difference. And this layoff says nothing about your talent, your passion, or your worth.

The games industry is so fuckin cooked

People generally don't quite understand this yet but the impact of these layoffs from 2022 through today, even if they stop now to return to 2021 levels, are going to impact the games industry and games themselves as a medium for well over a decade. We've guaranteed games will be worse for years.

we are trying to convince him but he’s not very open minded atm

you got it

Peco summer

Thank you Joseph!!

The BRAWL² Tournament Challenge! The BRAWL² Tournament!We're kicking off another contest here at Polycount - The BRAWL² TOURNAMENT

New challenge on Polycount!
#polycount #gamedev

Expedition 33 was made thanks to a small internal team and a BIG team of outsourced devs. Most big games, and many small games, are made this way!
If you don’t know a ton about outsourcing in game dev, People Make Games has done a phenomenal job covering it

The lesson to be learned from the development of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is very similar to the thing you can learn from Baldur's Gate 3, which is that if you were exactly that group of people at exactly that moment in time doing exactly that specific thing, it'll work out for you.

Thank you!!
