Manor Lords publisher says game devs and big corpos don't get on because making games is "fundamentally unpredictable"

Manor Lords.

Manor Lords' publisher believes that much of the games industry's current unrest stems from corporate desires that conflict with game development reality.

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, Snow Rui, CFO at Manor Lords publisher Hooded Horse, was one of many indie publishers to discuss the wave of layoffs that has rocked the industry over the past two years. "A lot of the cuts and unrest come from public companies; 'shifting corporate priorities'," Rui suggests.
