it’s time to bring back smaller game dev companies that produce titles of substance
Just want to point out, the latest round was Microsoft closing smaller studios, with very well received titles, they had bought so that they can focus more on large “blockbuster” titles. The layoffs is the exact opposite of what you want happening
Yeah, that’s part of what’s killing them. They closed the studio behind Hi-Fi Rush despite it being incredibly well received. It’s just not big enough a giant company like MS. Fuck them. We need smaller companies not under one of the three or four giants.

No game suggestions, friend requests, surveys, or begging.
No Let’s Plays, streams, highlight reels/montages, random videos or shorts.
No off-topic posts/comments, within reason.
Use the original source, no clickbait titles, no duplicates.

If the title is clickbait or lacks context you may lightly edit the title.)

It’s not. Microsoft owning smaller studios isn’t what I want in the first place.
