Bros... that not good. what the fuck are zoomers spending their money on if it not vidya/alchohol/cigs?!?!
>>733602587Zoomers don't have any money. All the jobs they could have done were given to illegals, H1B pajeets, and AI.
>>733602587Only a third? Sad to hear.
>>733602587>what the fuck are zoomers spending their money on if it not vidya/alchohol/cigs?!?!I don't drink or smoke, and I still manage to blow through any money I get. If people aren't buying games, they're buying food. Every article I've read says that young people spend more on food than people older.
>>733602587>US video game industry sounds like we need to get those numbers up
>>733602587Misleading title. They got laid off from X and rehired by Y. Devs earn six figures, one of the best paid departments in a bideo gaym company they are not poor. Remember this when you weep that Britney got fired from EA only to be hired by Sony for example.
>>733602587Layoffs doesn't necessarily mean less money coming in, it may just mean the same money in fewer hands that are less likely to have been the hands that did the actual work that brought in the money. At least that's been true with other big waves of layoffs elsewhere.

>>733602981The older you get the less you need to eat. It's only the fat fucks that eat like shit that keep eating all the time when they are old.
>>733602587Maybe we would buy games if they made good ones instead?
>>733603259The older you get the more money you're going to spend on medicine. Don't even start coping, you're not immune from aging
>>733603259Nah I eat way more at 30 than I ever did at 20
>>733602587Twitch streamers.I can't help but think this is gaslighting. If I remember correctly, in the past, it was normal to drop a majority of the development team once a title shipped. Is it possible this is still the case, but zoomers have the mentality that a dream job is a human right, especially when the garnered huge student debt?
>>733602587>Study Reveals
things are getting more expensive, people have less money.you can't just import the third world, shut down the economy for a few years and expect everything to return to normal.A.I is also steadily taking jobs, people have no fucking money anymore. a $1000 use to mean something but now thats like a week supply of money. It's fucked bro, no one has the money for bing bing wahoo anymore like the 2000s-2010s
>>733603505If your right to have your basic needs met is tied to your employment then only the weakest men will just roll over when their employment is terminated so someone who didn't do the work can reap the profits of the work you did even if it is the status quo.

>>733602587>>733603146Layoffs always are big news but the rehiring never gets reported on unless you follow smalltime dev accounts. They keep firing them to not have to pay them better with actual benefits.Videogames are also a gig economy and no company will just keep you hired while you do nothing between projects.
>>733604350yes
imagine employing someone in usa>ok heres 100k $ to pay salary and benefits whatever>what do you get out of it>does one years work equal = thousands of full price game sales?>probably not since the industry is overwhelmed with new and old games>only way to recoup costs is working on some guaranteed mega franchise or gambling games, except those tasks can be outsourcedit was weird for cdpr to open up a studio in boston, its a waste compared to anywhere else in the world with cheaper salaries

>>733603651What? It's just a symptom of the massive development cycle. These games take 7 years and you don't need certain categories of people the entire time so you cut them and they go hop on some other behemoth aaa project. It's a disgusting waste of resources that could be used to make several much smaller projects within a single company more efficiently but it's what companies seem to have collectively decided is worth pursuing.
>>733602587>what the fuck are zoomers spending their money on if it not vidya/alchohol/cigs?!?!i'm 34, my girlfriend is 25. she spent as cheaply as possible, and would subscribe to a netflix, or disney, or whatever, usually in rotations of 3 services to either watch something brand new, or when a show was out fully to binge it, and then cancel. she was as cheap as possible in every scenario, and still most of her spending was on bills or food. gen z is turbo fucked, and they're noticing.

>>733602869This. Or all the money they make goes to rent and food. Zoomers will likely become the pirate generation after too long.
I like seeing these companies and shareholders freak out that young people aren't buying shit games or wasting their money on alcohol.
>>733604085I just wonder why the stupidest people run everything. I'm not particularly bright, but even I realized the lockdowns could only be temporary and thus all the growth the entertainment sector saw could also only be a temporary measure. Why they didn't save some of that money is a baffling question that historians will study for centuries.
>release dogshit >talk about how little you actually do at your job >surprised you get laid off
>>733602587This was when DEI was purged, a good thing. Canadian devs did the same.
>>733604765you get better quality and less scams. The problem with hiring in the third world, most of it, is that your employees and foreign branches can simply scam you, and then disappear into the ether without returning a single cent. India gets so much work because despite being the scam capital of planet Earth, their government takes some steps to stop fly-by-night operations from scamming the larger corpos. But if you're a smaller game studio, trying to navigate it would be like really believing the voice on the other end of a random phone call really is from Microsoft and you really do have a virus that requires installing TeamViewer to get rid of. That's why most companies simply outsource instead of opening branches.
>>733602869I used to never see Indian people where I live. I didnt know a single Indian person, not even a 2nd or 3rd generation Indian American.Over the last couple of years basically every single cashier/food service/retail worker I’ve had to interact with has been an Indian. There’s a Walmart near me that used to be staffed with Mexicans who could barely speak English and middle aged disabled people. It’s literally all Indians now who just scowl at you and keep walking if you try to ask them where something is.
>>733606910My pet theory is it's a combination of overconfidence and survivorship bias. A smart person sees the way the wind is blowing and doesn't commit to some 10% chance all or nothing gamble, while a dumbass does. But one in ten of those dumbasses end up getting lucky and do better than the smartass, and so float to a high enough position that it's all failing upwards from there as long as you have social skills.
>>733607097>Over the last couple of years basically every single cashier/food service/retail worker I’ve had to interact with has been an Indian.That's how it works, a single indian just has to become regional general manager and then he will replace all employees at all stores everywhere with his friends, family, and anyone in his caste who can afford a green card. It just takes one reaching management to hollow a whole company out. None of them will ever admit to it because they work for pocket lint just to have a green card.
Is this Naughty Dog's next game?
>>733607097my favorite trick is when they pretend they don't speak a lick of English when before, even the illegal mexicans would at least attempt to say something, even if you could barely understand.
>>733607213There strange part is I still very rarely see Indians in public. Where do they go when they aren’t working? Basically the only time I see them is when I’m at a store.
>>733607290kek
>>733607327They live in their own little language bubbles. A little india hive somewhere, where they have control over a little bit of property, they'll cram 50 Indians into a flat, claim there are only 4 living there for tax reasons, when it breaks down and disintegrates, they'll rent it out as "lightly used" and move on to the next hive. This is usually owned by a slumlord who looks the other way or is part of their caste.
>>733607184I think this is right, and survivorship bias writes the rules for all future leaders. Until every industry becomes people playing with worse odds than Slot Machines at Vegas, continuously booming and busting instead of making smart business strategy.
>>733607184>survivorship biasthis shit is a bitch, basically why people can't comprehend how important luck is in life
>>733602587They aren't working, and Mommy and Daddy are strapped for cash. Little pussies are worse than even the most spastic nerd of 20-30 years ago, speaking to another human being and having to perform to any sort of expectation sends them into a panic attack.

Yea, that's very bad, it should be at least 1/2, ideally 100%.
>>733602587Layoffs have nothing to do with consumers.It has to do with underregulated markets that allow CEOs act like corrupt politicians, where they use their powers for financial gains and then leave the mess for everyone else to deal with.That’s the current Capitalist meta. Minimize spending at all costs. Maximize shareholder value at all cost. And before the company goes to shit, leave with a big sack of cash and 0 negative consequences.

This was bound to happen. Lay offs will happen to television, film and social media companies too. Too many entertainment companies vying for our attention. It's all over saturated. Gaming companies downsizing will be the best thing to happen with vidya in a long time. All the finance bro CEOs will fuck off once they realize they can't make 500 million dollars off of a single video game.
Call me crazy but I believe that while the h1b is a problem it is less of a problem as the gigantic corporations that get to pump prices and never bring them down. For example, tariffs increased the price of everything, now that those ones have been declared illegal, they get to sue for their money back in taxes while we just have to eat it. And tariffs are reinstated anyways under a different clause to keep the prices at the same high. This is one example of many.

The entire hiring process should be done by a third party>Instead of applying to employers, people go to a third party company that handles all employement>This eliminates: ghost jobs, data harvesters, AI hiring managers, entry level jobs requiring X years of experience, 5 round interviews that go nowhere, free labor for the employer, etc.>You apply, then later on take a test related to the field you want to work in>This elminates interviews entirely, as well as discrimination especially based on class, nepo hires, and people lying to get positions they are underqualified for>After the test, you get assigned to a company in that field. If you need to move, the third party will compensate you for the move to a close by apartment.>How many employees a company needs is determine by the third party>This prevents companies from hiring only 3 people when they actually need 12, the having the 3 employees do the work of 4 people each without compensation>Labor is standardized in each field. How much work employees do is recorded and measured.>This is to prevent employers from claiming their best employees are lazy and their favorite worker (a family member) is hard working. You can show them the numbers yourself.>It also helps prevent pretext in firings since you have definite numbers to back you up>If you want to fire someone, it has to go by the third party where the employee gets to defend themselves. The employee would also have to do something really bad, not just be 2 minutes late to clocking in>This prevents mass layoff and unfair terminations
>>733602587It is good. Mass hiring occurred around COVID and now the industry is shedding that weight
>>733615787>>one-size-fits-all tests>>how much employees do is recorded and measuredyou're so fucking dumb and naive it hurts

>>733615927>>one size fits allI never said this. Each test would be unique to each field/job. Someone who wants to be a doctor isn’t gonna take an engineering test. They’d take a test centered around their field and job.If they fail, their can wait 1, maybe 2 years to retake it. Or to take another test for a similar job. And each test would also be more than just multiple choice and essays from school. You’d also have to show your on job skills, with any dangerous activities being done with dummies.And yes, employee work should be measured. It’s very easy for employers to make shit up during performance reviews since performance isn’t standardized.The only reason you’d ever be against it is if you either are an employer who makes up bullshit, or the lazy employee.Keep in mind that if you are slightly below average a few days, you’ll still be safe since you need to underperform badly multiple days to be fired.

>>733602587>what the fuck are zoomers spending their money onAs I understand it, just surviving. We seriously need to fix this usury issue in the west. I can't imagine what it's like to be told your whole childhood that you need college, then you start a life with $80,000 in debt that turns into $1,000,000 in interest over the years before you can even start your adult life. And, of course, there's no jobs. Especially for white males. Shit is so fucked up. I'm gen-x so I evaded it, but I definitely see it happening and have no consoling words.
>>733603146>devs get hired 6 figuresA lot of them don't.
I am sitting here eating these Bar-S hotdogs from Walmart where you can get 24 jumbo bun-length of them for $5. They are plain toxic meat scraped off the floor of slaughter houses and glued together. I made 6. Plain. No bun. Just sugar-free ketchup and mustard. Also some brewed unsweetened Luzianne tea, which is a luxury item I indulge in.

>>733625450>34% of the devs dictating 100% of the content
>>733625310We have one very well documented instance of usury being completely reversed. It led to a golden age and the leader having a 99% voter approval rating in 1939. We could afford video games, at any rate.
>>733625450>we need to be more diverse! btw that means reducing the amount of white peoplehow does this not violate any labor laws?
>>733602587Video games are a massive market still that rakes in billions, even in its decayed state. The problem is that the need for progressively more profit and growth to increase shareholder dividends has exceeded the total size of the market, the only way to increase profit by that point is to downsize. In other words, contraction stage.I'm not wholly unsympathetic to the people being laid off, they may be hyper-liberal ideologues, but that's because that's what they were taught to be. Enough people have been laid off that they could go and start their own small studios and make indie and AA games, there's no future in AAA, and anyone still in a AAA studio should be using it as a networking opportunity.
>>733626249That's the fun part. It does!

>>733626174Yeah, and then his nation got completely destroyed. So much for a golden age huh? Looks like a lack of usury made them weaker, not stronger.
>>733626551The war destroyed the nation, not the end of usury.
>>733626551It took half the planet to destroy a nation with substandard equipment and a smaller fighting population. It took TWO nuclear warheads to end the war against a completely militarized and homogeneous nation state a fraction the size of the nation that nuked them.
>>733626696>They were weak and were destroyed by people who performed heaps of usuryYeah, usury is a good thing, it makes the nation strong by giving smart people heaps of money from the poor.

>>733626783Your nation is backsliding into fascistic despotism as we speak, not even as a pecularity of the current administration, just generally for the last 80 years to compensate for increasing discontent. Usury does not make a nation strong, when the dollar value was still attached to gold, the negative effects were manageable. Nixon decoupling the dollar from gold caused an inflationary spike of over a thousand percent, and it's still climbing. This shit destroys countries by selling the future to enrich the present, and it's only a matter of time until those poor people, as you put it, are so poor they have nothing to lose and everything to gain by throwing the so-called smart people on pyres.But I get it, you're just baiting for (You)s, and you're getting them.
>>733627070The GDP is higher than ever, if usury was bad, that would not be possible.Money taken from the unworthy, and given to their superiors makes for a stronger longer lasting nation.Think of it as an 'inferiority tax', why would you be upset over subhumans being taxed?
>>733627070>are so poor they have nothing to lose and everything to gain by throwing the so-called smart people on pyres.Good thing the rich owns the military and poor homeless men don't possess tanks, drones, fighters and aircraft carriers.

>>733627335Still lost, that's all that matters.
>>733602587Zoomers spend money it's just that the vast majority of it is concentrated in live service games. This pattern is continuing with gen alpha, the most popular holiday gift has been just vouchers for microtransactions. If you ain't Fortnite, COD, 2k, Madden, FIFA, Roblox, etc. your market is basically being held up on how much gainfully employed millennials and Gen X'ers give a shit about your specific game.

>>733603791The sports betting shit is wild. I know kids barely out of high school gambling all of their fucking money away and paying people for predictions. I know sports betting is old but in the last 3 years its been completely normalized and its staggering no one says anything against it.
>>733628403>>poors join army because no jobs due to aiThe army have no need for the poor when they can just use the poor's money on producing more suicide drones.
>>733605075Thank you for standing up and protecting women.
>>733628231Depends, a dev on the west coast of the US, e.g. California or Washington, is going to be paid more than anywhere else in the United States, which is still more than Europeans, still more than Japanese/Koreans, who make more than mainland Chinese and then when you just need slop farms you're renting out warehouses in Mumbai for pennies per head a day.
>>733603259Zoomers don't have kitchens because they're renting a single room or they don't know how to cook. Either way they're spending all their money on doordash and the like.

>>733602587AAA videogames, movies, and TV is not the right career move after about 2022 or so. Everything is fucking shitty and gay now in that sector. It was time for a restart.
>>733628403You know this conspiracy is bullshit because it assumes competent leadership actually having and executing a plan
>>733603791>>733628417Like most things sports betting is just another form of proof that anything degenerate or evil can be wrapped into a aesthetically socially acceptable package to make it palatable for general society, this includes drugs, gambling, rape, pedophillia etc. I've realized that most people's morals actually stem from social cohesion/brow beating rather than truly believing something is morally bad. Unfortunately the idea of having genuine principles to stand on seems to be a relatively dead concept and exploitation of the general population has become much more complex and sinister.
>>733602869This , plus fire the other 2/3, and also TND
>>733602587They spend their money "looksmaxxing" (which is code for incelmaxxing) and hand moisturizer. >>733602869Good. Nobody wearing a mop on the top of their heads deserve nice things. Cope and seethe.
>>733630210lmao tis unc crashin out over looksmax GODS like Clavicular, you probably baldin nigga while Clavicular mogs yo dumb ahh. lil gup can't handle dey mewin on his ass ahahahaha.
>>733623729>travelWith what fucking money? I mean I see it happening, tourist spots are getting ridiculously crowded now, but how are zoomers able to afford to travel? Just the plane tickets alone are mad expensive.
>>733631245I'm a zoomer and I went to Japan recently, my job doesn't even pay much. Only $28 an hour.
>>733631245with the money they have. zoomers are actually the richest generation age-for-age so far, so they have more ability to spend on things like travel than any other generation before them. and it's really visible in the statistics too, they travel a lot more
>>733627024I'm not sure that's true.
where I live, under 30s still mostly live with parents and it's socially acceptable because housing is that expensivelike, these are normies with girlfriends and shit
>>733627024>Trying to market premium cost games to people who have already spent their money elsewhere, then complaining that they aren't being purchasedIt's a bold strategy, lets see how it pays off for them.
>>733631763So where/when do they fuck then??
>>733602587They filled companies with women who had degrees on north african lesbian poetry. Every single video game company brought in people who don't like games and have never played games and these people were dictating how games are being made. Of course your company will fail when you put people who have no idea about games.
>>733602587>the industry must keep expanding! infinite growth must be prioritized! Fuck this shareholder mindset. There's nothing wrong with the absolute behemoth AAA gaming has become downsizing. You don't need billion dollar budgets with thousands of employees to make a good game. The idea that expensive game = good game is a marketing meme.
>>733628403>join the armylol yeah right, only to get them to hand me a gun maybe, I'm dying on domestic soil because my enemies live in my country, not outside
>funnel all the world's wealth upwards into pedo party islands and more importantly genetics research and life extension treatments>wonder why no one has money to spend>create alarmist media about lack of spending in responseshiggy
>>733634820>funnel all the world's wealth upwards into pedo party islands and more importantly genetics research and life extension treatmentsAs if the money is better off anywhere else. At least they get shit done and progress humanity.
>>733634916impressive. now let's see Paul Allen's cope.
>>733602869More like they can't do those jobs in the first place. Have you tried getting a zoomer to work? Anything they can't use ChatGPT for or requires critical thinking is too much for them. They get hired and then walk out on the first day during their break.
>>733634954If they didn't deserve the money, why do they keep getting it? Sucks to suck, but some people ARE just better than others.
>>733602587What good american games have released recently though?Can't think of one desu
>>733635024Look at that subtle justification. The tasteful amount of self-delusion in it. Oh my God, it even has a 'Great Man' argument...
>>733635218They pay scientists to make all the important shit you use in day to day life, without them you wouldn't have a smartphone to post on 4chan with or a console to play CoD with.
>>733635267>he doesn't know the researchers aren't rich eitherhaha uh oh!
>>733635326Why pay them too much? Then they'd get lazy and stop working.
>>733607097>It’s literally all Indians now who just scowl at you and keep walking if you try to ask them where something is.I'm glad I'm not the only one who's had this interaction. I don't need you to be pleased to be working in the wage cage or anything, but every Indian I've ever encountered working retail or at a restaurant or something always seemed like they were about to lunge over the fucking table at me even if I'm just asking where something is. It's fucking weird.
>>733635394>uniroincally arguing avolition or a resource curse as a form of coping about being a suppressed pleb
>>733628417It has been really fucking bizarre to watch gambling go from something dirty we go to the place literally nicknamed sin city to do or find some weird Indian reservation with a sketchy ass casino to something that gets blasted by A list celebs with odds officially broadcast before the match on the official channel.
>>733634916>and progress humanity.
>>733602587The answer is doordash and amazon. I have at least 6 nieces/nephews above the age of 18. None of them know how to drive. They just don't want to. So if they need to go somewhere they just uber. If they need food they just doordash, need anything else it's on Amazon.No money left over for rent so they still live at home.
>>733635671Without them you wouldn't have smartphones, streaming services, multiplayer games, cheap monetization schemes like microtransactions/skins and all the other stuff that makes life worth living.
>>733631245I think it's more to do with the world generally bring more interested in travel and an increase in population then particularly US zoomers all going traveling. The amount of buses full of Chinese that descend like locusts on any tourist spot here makes me think so at least.
>>733624705It's funny watching the excuses run out in real time at least. There's so many kids now that basically did everything they were told and tried to be as perfectly milquetoast and employable as possible and they're just getting absolutely fucking raped anyway.
>>733602587fake narrative by dishonest cunts, they're acting like turnover when a company has a game go gold and lays off employees to slim down for the next preproduction is something new and that those employees can't walk into revolving door jobs at other companies that are scaling up for full production.
>>733632202They still fuck in any available private location, but what's more concerning for the economy is that they avoid kids like the plague because it would be complete financial ruin.
>>733609549>social leadSo, like marketing? Why create weird job descriptions
>>733635973That's sad. I wish I had a family
>>733602587Zoomers hate videogames, they are BoomersV2 and only watch nu-TV
>>733602587>Union gets uppity>2 years later 1/3 of their workforce is goneDid they just think their demands were going to be met with no monetary cost?
Was it worth it for voice acting?
>>733638129>Okay so we need you to voice these characters, it's just some dialogue like "Help me, team mate!" and "We need to stop the bad guys!", so can you do that for us?>Well, I need that gold plated mercedes, and my agent will give you the three meter long list of restrictions, payments, and concessions to the voice acting process>On second thought, I'm sure John the programmer or even just AI can voice this character, sorry!>THIS IS TEXTBOOK ANTISEMITISM!

>>733603791>Sports bettinghalf my male co-workers talk about this shit non-stop. the other half can only speak spanish.
>>733639776Not me, continue not buying things so people get laid off, please. It's fucking funny watching them take to twitter in a rage when you guys just do nothing.
>>733602587I buy games, as long as they're under $10 with all DLCs included.
>>733602587Reminder that ubisoft had 10k employes at some point seemingly doing fuck all except making good games.
>>733602587Who cares they didn't make good games?
>>733602587>66% of LGBT activists remain in the videogames industryIs how I read that headline. It sounds like there's more work to do.
>>733624705>And, of course, there's no jobs. Especially for white males.The medical field is always hiring, and always shortages. Plenty of jobs there. I work 2 weeks a year in California. I live in Florida, and they pay me like $90/hour to travel to California and fill in shortages as a fucking RN. There really shouldn't be any shortages of those, but there are. The problem is there is a limited number of slots in med school, and they give them to the darkies and retarded women that will quit in a few years (this is a statistical probably, by the way. most women quit their medical careers within 5 years of starting their residency). Those slots should 100% be going to men given the rarity of the slots and how much we need doctors right now. No one has any problem hiring white male doctors. In that case, the bottleneck is the DEI colleges. I'm not sure how it is in other STEM fields, but I imagine it's comparable since women leaving the medical field has nothing to do with the job. Just that their flaky plus have a habit of letting Chad come inside them.
>>733602869And that is a good thing

>>733635003what zoomers are you talking here? the black and mexican ones? because most zoomers ive seen at work, they do fine, they just can't socialize well and they have a habit of wanting to be on the phone a lot because its miserable to work.
