The most tone deaf shit I've seen from a CEO this yr:

I heard a good chunk of the layoffs are from Fall Guys, but I've yet to get it from a concrete source. Either way, very shitty (especially when Epic bitched at Apple over Vbuck transactions, and even after all that they still rise the prices now of all times).
it's so weird how Valve releases CS2, gets some praise (I know it's mixed, but CS fans are their own creature I've yet to understand), and Epic lays off 16% staff, while also raising Vbuck prices. Epic literally ends up doing the opposite Valve does every time each of them does something near enough the same time something happens.
Also the bandcamp part doesn't surprise me, especially considering how Bandcamp decided to unionise against Epic, and I know damn well that Timmy dislikes unions, so letting those folks go and replacing them with non union members wouldn't surprise me.
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
