The gaming industry is a savage one, both in competition between publishers and in the endless creative ways they invent to take our money. From WOW came the WOW clones and from Fortnite comes the Fotniteclones...or should I say the DayZ clones...or the H1Z1 clones...or the RUST clones...or the PUBG clones or....well, you get my point. Like sharks to chum big publishers; race to get a bite before the battle royale cosmetic cash shop with a “limited edition” whale gimmick gets gobbled up!

You're welcome.
In general people who works for gaming company are well looked after, particularly developers.
Problem is that when shit hit the fan, said Companies have no qualm in firing their employees left and right.
But as long as you are working, you are good.
Yeah, I'm not sure how they were going to handle that for the Highlander MMO. It probably would have ended up with a couple of kids chasing each other around while adults kept looking at their watches and wishing the server round was over so they could spawn (or create new characters or whatever Kalisto ended up doing).
Don't expect that to change anytime soon; those in the position to become endangered by a concerted consumer effort are too well-versed in strumming the fault lines between consumers to keep them looking at one another as the problem.
Enjoyed the article, as always.
Thank you for your time!
