I cannot express to all of you how excited I am. We worked so hard on this season's content and I can't wait for you to dive in tomorrow.
I hope you enjoy it. We made it for just for you.
Tomorrow, Season of the Deep arrives.
Clear out your engrams, line up your loadouts, and prepare for the next Season of Destiny 2. 👁

I just don't feel safe in this industry anymore. I don't know how to navigate this feeling of hopelessness and it's getting worse every day. I'll be jobless this year at some point (hopefully my actual contract end date), and I genuinely don't think I'll survive it.

I can never thank you enough for the work you've done and all you've created. It does feel parasocial and difficult, but thank you for giving your side of things for those of us that were (are) concerned about you. We grieve together now.

Today is my 1 Year Anniversary in Gamedev. What a wild year it's been working on features for Destiny. I'm so grateful for the opportunity, and I'm excited to announce that John Bungo asked I stick around a little longer. I love you all. 💜

*THE* Layoff Thread.
Scoop up these wonderful people right this instant.
Here is a cleaner thread of posts from individuals who were laid off by Bungie and indicated they are *actively* looking/reaching out for industry jobs. I will update this as I see them.
Please share for visibility.

Quit my job in the financial industry to start streaming on Twitch instead 5 years ago this very week, and got Affiliate during Last Wish Day One. I ended up falling miserably at streaming, and it honestly felt like I had ruined my life.
I work on Destiny 2 now. 😢

Game Development is so much harder than you can possibly imagine, and I learn or see something that shatters my brain on a daily basis.
Any shipped game is a miracle.
Now go play the amazing things these people created for you.

(I'm too overwhelmed by how incredible this is. I have no words at this time. Maybe later.)

The fact this is still happening to this level is genuinely awful. Especially to the point where Bungie still feel like they can’t engage like they used to.

Moving away from a certain mechanic because it was extremely difficult to implement and resolve issues with (risk vs reward) is not avoiding work. It's efficient cost analysis for the future. Simple as.

I am now off work for Baldur's Gate 3 Release tomorrow and Mama's Birthday Friday, so I will cease to exist shortly after this is posted - until Monday of course when it'll be back to so so much work on Destiny.

Known issue: The auto-selected launch screen after summoning your fireteam to orbit isn’t respecting existing checkpoints.
This is not our intention. For now, players can dismiss the auto-selected screen and reselect the activity node from the Director.

Nah nothing like that, just normal time vs effort 'cost'
you use in every day type of things. Making a cake from scratch, vs buying a couple things from the store, vs ordering one type of thing. Nothing too deep. Is this worth more time or more effort or am I just hungry now?
