Swen Vincke, head of Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian Studios, had some harsh words about layoffs and publisher greed at last night's Game Developers Choice Awards. Hitting social media to follow up on those comments today, he's a bit less harsh but no less direct.
"There are plenty of people in publishing I met who have their hearts in the right place," Vincke says on Twitter today. "This message was for those who try to double their revenue year after year. You don't have to do that. Build more slowly and make your aim improving the state of the art, not squeezing out the last drop. And respect the people making the games. You'll find it brings you more joy."
