“That being said, I want to call out the way Unity chose to communicate these layoffs. Receiving a 5am email from ‘noreply@unity’ informing me that my role was being ‘eliminated’ and that I’d lose system access by the end of the day felt completely abrupt and impersonal. Unity must do better in how they treat their workers in hard times like this.”

Ouch

Thanks

Availability of Video Games (originally released before 2010) is approximately 13 percent, slightly above pre-World War II audio recordings (10 percent or less) and below the survival rate of American silent films (14 percent).

These are fascinating numbers, do you have a source?

I think you forgot the link text?!

There a more games released now than ever, there are also more coop campaigns than ever.

This site doesn’t seem to let me link to more specific filters but if you set release year to 2024 and choose a specific platform they list 214 PC titles, 128 Switch titles, 124 PS5 titles, and 97 Xbox Series titles from last year !

Edit: its a weird site, it wasn’t applying all the filters in the link it generated. So I’ve simplified the link and summarised the numbers.
