It's REALLY hard as a long time fan of Square's games to continue supporting them. These practices along with my general disinterest in most of what they're producing nowadays is genuinely disheartening.
So not only is Square Enix going to try to replace 70% of its QA with AI, it's also apparently laying off at least 100 people (possibly significantly more) as it continues to consolidate its operations further and further:

Legit if you're not reading Akane-Banashi you are sleeping on one of the most unique series running in Shonen. Did not have any interest in rakugo before but if they can manage to make a manga about it this compelling it's a testament to how good this is.

Why do video games cost so much to make these days? A recent NYT article pinned bloated budgets on the graphical arms race, but that's only a small part of the equation. The real problem? Rampant mismanagement.

Graphical fidelity is only part of the reason that game budgets have swelled to hundreds of millions of dollars

Coming to the end of the year and while it's a lot harder now to spend 50+ hours on a game, when I do it's because there's really something special there. Metaphor was that game, having finished with over 90 hours clocked in and wasn't bored during any of it. Can't give more praise than that.
