 ๐Ÿ”Behind the Scenes: The Industry's Ups and Downs๐Ÿ“‰

2023 has been a rollercoaster for the gaming world. Despite a treasure trove of game releases, the industry has faced its share of challenges. Bungie's recent staff reduction, primarily due to "Destiny 2's" dip in popularity, reflects a broader trend seen across giants like EA, Epic Games, Amazon, Unity, and Microsoft. The massive layoff at Epic Games, affecting over 800 employees, highlights the harsh realities of market saturation, investment unpredictability, and labor issues. Yet, there's a silver lining as some companies are stepping up to foster healthier, more sustainable work environments.
