Don't Nod workers are due to strike this Friday after the studio announced its redundancy plan last month.

    Late-stage capitalism (specifically public companies) are rather incompatible with singleplayer or “one-off” games that don’t have a long revenue tail of a live season or multiple DLCs/expansions. That really sucks for the whole games industry, players and developers alike.

      Why? Shouldn’t they be working on another game after releasing the first?

      They brought that one upon themselves imo. They were privately owned for 10 years before their IPO in 2018
