This is the fundamental problem in the game industry. It became so profitable over the years it attracted the worst kind of people to lead creative endeavors.
Of course I‘m talking about scum from the finance world and big tech that we‘ve all grown to despise over the years. They don‘t know the consumer or the product. They‘re in it for the money and we can see that in mass layoffs, predatory monetization practices that make other entertainment industries blush and insanely bloated budgets for projects with no vision.
They‘re disgusting parasites. They‘re killing games and that‘s why I play so much more indie and retro games than AAA.
This is a fundamental problem with all industries. Management rarely has any idea what their industry is about and are just there to make numbers go up no matter what by pushing buttons/people.
Might be another time to push Elizabeth Warren’s Accountable Capitalism Act, in which workers of a company must vote in a show of support for a large number of chair members. That would likely help a lot of industries get perspective below the sacred MBA.
Oh she’ll be prefect then! She will spend a minimum amount of time pretending like she’s a gamer to relate to the gaming scene and then because she knows it all, base all her decisions on her profound knowledge!
It’s a month old account.
But the biggest redflag is she’s never worked for a gaming company before, she went from AI exec to Xbox CEO…
She literally has no idea how any of it works

Literally Jeffrey Epstein. He helped push microtransaction.

I’d be a better fit for the role. I’ve never played XBox, but neither has she, and I’ve been a gamer since 1985.
I’d LOVE to get in there, and do something with Rare.
