@GeeEssEff META thousands of layoffs were caused by two separate issues, COVID hires no longer needed and the massive amount of money burned on Horizon Worlds which cause a huge a exodus in their department... similar to what's going on with Epic and their layoffs.....so comparing that to Microsoft was totally off.

@GeeEssEff : It's quite different, Google, Amazon, Microsoft are 3 biggest of the biggest companies in the world that had to over staffed through the pandemic in order to keep their businesses going remotely and when things normalized it was time to let those people go, while Epic is going through money troubles by over spending left and right in one single IP....

So yes, it's a big difference....next time try to compare apple to apples.

@rizangle META (aka Facebook) had to fire over 10.000 people in order to understand certain priorities, but thousands of people had to pay the consequences for it... besides the fact that META can still afford to burn far more money than Epic regardless if their stocks go up or down.

Epic spends millions yearly on nonsensical character skins from IPs they don't own, and on top of that they are offering 100% revenue to those developers who go exclusively with them as a tactic to hurt Steam.

In other words, Epic is like META, wasting money left and right forgetting their main priorities.
