To the braindead idiots who are saying "but they told us ghost of yotei was a success",
EA laid off dice employees just a few months after battlefield 6 released and became the best selling battlefield game ever.
We've been known that making a profitable game is not job security in this industry anymore

Hermens Hulst/Nishino have been at best ineffectual at worst actively harmful throughout their tenure depending on how much power they actually have relative to Totoki.

There's no honor among thieves. ๐
A hacker sparked an uproar within the PlayStation 5 homebrew scene for privately reporting an exploit to Sony and cashing in on a $50,000 reward, rather than keeping it confidential for the community. bit.ly/4jHe1SQ
Destin equating a 60k buyouts and a whole ass studio closure to a 26 person layoff at SP should let you know just how committed to being disingenuous he is.
You can make a successful game and still face layoffs in this era

Metacritic and OpenCritic shouldn't count scores from outlets using a 5-star scale without half stars. A 3/5 to 4/5 represents a full 20-point jump, with no 7/10 (70) possible in between.
This is more problematic on Metacritic due to the heavy weighting of sites like Eurogamer.
