Honestly, it just gives even more credence to the idea that there's a central establishment that simply won't allow any deviation from this right wing destructive approach. Either a civil service that has coopted itself into dogma, or all the parties are irrevocably compromised by lobbyists.

Is paid DMing for TTRPGS an option? It's niche tho :/ editing (as a writer) for small bits and bobs? Not sure as I know the creative fields are hellish for sustainability, which feels all kinds of wrong.

There are no consequences at all for doing terrible things at certain levels of society. Brazening ones way through things works.

Until we see actual consequences nothing will ever change

I mean .. EA purchased and gutted Bullfrog, Westwood studios, Maxis.

This is terrible for the Devs involved but tbh as a publisher it's sort of ironic it's happening.

Stuff like this makes me wish smaller Devs could survive. Just glad Larian and CDPR can survive on their own.
