Another day, another round of lay offs.

Honestly, the only thing surprising about this is that it affected Prime Gaming staff and not divisions actively involved in game development.

Yep, I work in games and this year has been fucking brutal.
Most of my contacts/acquaintances on Linkedin are "between jobs".Luckily I have some freelancing set up, but this thing is killing me. It's not easy to find another (remote) job when half the people in the industry are competing with you.
They had a games division?
Don't you remember that 2 weeks of astroturfing talking about how great New World was?
