    From what I’ve read about their Daily Active Users they’re going to be overstaffed soon. No hate but they exploded and when things settle they might not need as much staff. Thoughts?

      They could lose 80% of their players and still be understaffed with a team of 40 tbh.

          You’re good. I’d have thought the same thing had I not been following the development story.

          Their game pass numbers also seem to be going up, which is harder to dev for as well. I know my steam friends got sick of it after putting in 100 hours in three weeks though

            I too have sunk more then 100 hours into the game. It was worth its purchase already. Yet in a year or however long it takes to be complete… i and many others will jump right back on to see how everything has progressed. Plus they’ll release on play station and that alone will be millions more copies sold.

              Yeah it reminds me of the Elden Ring “where’d the players go?” articles. They beat the game. I’ll be back with the next content drop

                HOPEFULLY elden ring dlc will come out on its two year anniversary. Of course itll probably just be a trailer, but people can hope.

      This is how it happens. If they dont staff to meet the demand the game suffers and dies out, if they do in a few years when the player base falls off and they announce layoffs everyone makes the shocked Pikachu face.
