"Mythic Quest lost a lot of good people… when we fired them," says David Bricklesbee (played by David Hornsby) in the first episode of Mythic Quest Season 4.
The workplace comedy about a dysfunctional game development studio doesn't waste any time referencing the biggest game industry trend of the past two years: mass layoffs. Bricklesbee, the studio's executive producer, addresses the challenges the fictional studio has faced since last season, like Covid. Specifically, the end of Covid, which brought the end of sky-high profits and thus mass layoffs.
