    Btw designers on a video game are like professional architects. It’s not their fault if the building is full of ads or hard to navigate, that’s what the client made them do.

    Designers are told what you design and present it to the producers and execs until they are happy with it. Executives making bad decisions are the only one’s you aren’t seeing in this wave of layoffs.

      Some high level people are also leaving AB, so hopefully this can be an opportunity for AB to break out of the old mentality. I feel for all the people laid off though, the past year has been brutal.
