CountFrylock Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 without any income coming in for most people.....where's that leave the video game industry? they can't really keep going if most people can't even afford to buy them Quote
Raptorpat Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Active development has probably slowed down, but so much of it is digital there's really nothing left to slow down. It's probably one of the more profitable industries right now if I were to guess. Quote
SwimModSponges Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 There was a rumor that one of the major plot points of the elder scrolls 6 was going to be a plague. Bet they're scrapping that plan if it was. Quote

It's probably one of the more profitable industries right now if I were to guess. except I've heard that nintendo doesn't really trust it's employees enough to send them home with content for future games so working from home isn't really feasible for them honestly indie games probably won't be affected too much but anything bigger will be in trouble Quote
Distortedreasoning Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 work from home? i think most their work could probably get done from home. at least the game making side, not sure about everything else. most the big game companies could probably get some bailout. as for games that are getting released at these times? all major platforms got access to digital so maybe some decline in sales? tho the industry is known for having layoffs be part of the norm. there would probably be delays in ongoing projects thats for sure. but i imagine sales being high. there was a recent steam article saying they had like a 20% increase a few days ago.
