This is as old as time honestly.

LOL Rebekah Valentine? Wasn't she the same female dog that tried to smear SBI-Detected and Black Myth?
Yes.
She is a snake, we don't need these fake people in our industry and hobby. We need more passionate people who love gaming in high positions.
Rebekah is a snake. We need more genuine people in our industry and hobby, leaders who actually care for gaming and also people who know how to lead others.
yepp and with that i will dismiss the entire article
oh look, people pushing this disinformation yet again, incorrect statements that are easily shown to be wrong. I bet even if you tried you would not source all relevant parts of the article to show the oh so terrible thing she said or allegedly got wrong.
Do you even have any good knowledge of Journey to the West?
So that's the real reason why the Humans disappeared in game! Annapurna will now be staffed with the robots from Stray.
Wonder what pronouns these robots will b using' now -_-
Nah, probably will be infested by sweet baby inc flees...
@@sethkaiser7423SBI Zurks
Is sad what is happening in this industry. If these 25 people want to open a own independent studio, we fans would definitely support them.
I suppawrt their endeavors. Fur a better gaming industry as purr the demands of the actual paying customer and audience.
If they make a good game yeah.... I'm not going to just blindly support someone.
@@kaizokujimbei143u do know these people didn’t make stray right? That honor belongs to BlueTwelve
Especially if they keep making cat games
@@fenrirsfolly92 Anapurrrrrna
her dad needs to stop bailing her out and leave her to figure things out for herself, she's proving to everyone she's incompetent and doesn't know how to run anything
She will be helped by her dad.. until the moment where so much money and reputation is lost.. only then the dad will choose not to help.
I have a better idea. She should just live like a princess in her daddy's tower and leave gaming to men.
@@kaizokujimbei143 Exactly 😂
So this is what happens when a karen demands to be the manager and then gets her way.
Sounds like the woman couldn't stand men running her company like a well-oiled machine, so she got rid of them and decided she wanted to run it into an iceberg.
And they were absolutely right. I’m a woman but I have eyes that see how there’s a large number of women in positions of power ruining companies
Sounds like they asked to take her company away from her and when she said "okay" they asked for more.
@bethanyh1637 it's like the entertainment industry is being destroyed by rich people
@@crazykidz4resal It's also rich people who created the entertainment industry. What's killing it today are rich kids who never worked for crap in their lives and have servants who wipe their butts for them. Kids who grew-up on social media and libiot colleges indoctrinating them into mass stupidity. Kids who don't know crap but think they know everything. And their parents are at fault for not taking their brats over their knee and got a good birching for the crap they pulled.
@@bethanyh1637 The deal would have split revenue in favor for her, but would have meant splitting the profits with others. I guess now no-one gets the money. Well, Elison can ask more from her dad if needed.
if you love games, you aren't in the industry. all the good designers are making indie games
Been watching indie works than anything from Hollyweird.
Most indies are utter crap. Those 'good' designers clearly aren't....
Lmao there are tons of shitty indie games. Stop sucking their dicks.
Got some offline, single player mobile games to suggest?
@@Kaziko5453Haven't played any mobile games in years, but I had the most fun with games that were basically ports of tabletop games. As examples, Carcassonne and Neuroshima Hex were both great.
I’m telling you they should reform and make a game about dogs. Call it “Forever Home.” 😂😂😂😂😂
Would be funny if the renamed them selves TCGD
The Cat Game Devs😂
@@BowsettesFurywell they could problem is they never made a game about cats
They're not a developer.
They are publishers not developers
What I do know is Ellison is one toxic creature so you can only imagine who she surrounds herself with.
really? do you know her personally? Did you work with her or for her?
Look at her picture and you'll immediately understand why she is like this 🤣
Probably a bunch of snotty rich assholes. You know how those spoiled rich types are.
Reject AAA company, embrace Indie
Nuff said
Almost all indie companies are no better than AAA, how about embracing quality instead, set high standards.
there are quite a few scummy indies out there
No, that is dumb. Reject woke and crap games and embrace good games made by actual passionate people.
@@dizy82
To each of their own interpretation. I simply meant indie for developers if the corporate is keeping them on a leash. Going indie can be hard but you'll have more freedom and choices than having a constant eyeball on your shoulder.
Nepobaby gets company leaves then comes back and ruins it. Not a surprise. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
why does she sound like that pink haired admiral in SW? "you don't need to know" absolute girlboss high on her powertrip and Disney didn't understand why no one liked her...
true to life, people don't like idiots and arseholes.
Want to talk about bad leadership, my company kept two older men employed to do one persons job until one of them passed. Then they fired the other guy and hired a 19 year old girl solely based on the fact her mother also works for the company 😢
Why man??? Why????
@@accelerator8558 big breasts probably
The weirdest part of all of this is that IGN actually did journalism for once. Lol
Right?! It's a shame that the journalist behind the article is the same waste of skin that created a smear campaign against Sweet Baby Inc Detected and Black Myth Wukong. I don't care if she actually did her job this time. She can choke on egg shells and parish for all I care.
Fr i was like, why r they covering this again, arent these types of people they suck off too bec they just have money but no skills or talents, instead they exposin!!
Rebekah Valentine wrote this, I have my doubts
I blame the parents for stepping in and rescuing their children from learning from their mistakes.
Agreed.
Saw the pic of the CEO. It explained a lot 😂
What does the CEO look like? Just curious
I had a blast with Stray. Pretty good game, I beat it, then my daughter beat it. We got our money's worth.
That’s adorable ❤
So cute ☺️
Purrfect value for your money.
@@MajorKatsuragi86 great memories
@@BowsettesFury thank you!
The Stray game looked like it was a fun interactive game that allows you to journey around from the POV of a stray cat. You get to interact with objects and people and rest anywhere you want.
It was a peaceful game with no blatant modern politics in it. It’s unfortunate that this game didn’t get enough hype but everyone is entitled to what they enjoy.
What this game was hyped to hell and back. Even people made cosplays for their pets based off it😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@BowsettesFury I didn’t see it. That why I said that. If it did good then cool.
Instead the game had pawlitics.
@@kaizokujimbei143 good one 😂
This sht made it into goty list, it was hype as hell
Stray was incredible. Paid so much attention to everything to do with the cats movements and tendencies. Found the gameplay fun, and the story was unique. Wasn't the best game in the world, but it was a lot better than a lot of the AAA games coming out now that overstay their welcome.
It was a unique idea, which is increasingly rare
Remember guys, this is Rebekah Valentine telling us this, a person known for creating deceitful articles against companies and people she doesn't like, that article should be completely disregarded until proven true
Keep an eye on those 25 talented people instead. They are going to produce good games. The company means nothing. It's just a name. Follow the talent.
RIP Stray, I would buy seven copies of this game and its sequel if that’s what it takes to keep sane game development in action. I’m so ready for things to change.
A black SamOoorai…
Ridiculous!!!
Given who's written the article, I can't give it any credence.
Stray was damn awesome. Loved the hell out of that game. Probably a combo of being a completely original title and my love of cats.
It will be sad to hear that there (presumably) will not be a Stray 2.
Why wouldn't there be a Stray 2? Annapurna didn't make Stray they published it. Blue Twelve Studio created and developed Stray. I have not heard or read anything from Blue Twelve but I'd be curious as to what obligations they had with Annapurna in regards to publishing a sequel, but I doubt they gave the rights up.
Starting to see a pattern here. Female leads might be a factor
Yup. Just look at the Bud light disaster. A woman executive opened her mouth and destroyed the reputation and sales of the business.
not all females, just incompetent vs competent and sadly we got lot more of the incompetences
@@WatcherOnRUclips 99.99%
@@WatcherOnRUclips not all but 99% all the time 🥱
@@Ganthoth The amount of female CEOs with dumb b!tch syndrome in the entertainment industry really ruins the reputation of human females. Those dumb b!tches also give misogynists a justification to be sexist towards women. That makes me hate these so-called "girl bosses" even more than I already do.
I was really looking forward to their dinosaur horror game 😢 Guess I might as well remove it from my wishlist
same
I am really saddened that we will not have a Stray Sequel or at least a continuation of that Stray Universe. Might not even know if the orange kitty ever found his family again
@@hanchiman well considering these aren’t the people that made the game, ya don’t really know that do ya?
It most likely did.
stray was developed by BlueTwelve Studio, annapurna is only the distributor...
Stray was never meant to have a sequel, Annapurna didn't make the game, the developers were not affected by this, as a matter of fact, none of the developers of the games we loved from Annapurna were directly affected by this, Annapurna Interactive is a publisher, people are just trying to create lies about an already shitty situation, telling people that "all the devs left" those are not devs, those are executives, not everyone left, the top ones did
One rule of game theory is that satisfaction comes from not failing. That requires the possibility of failure to be built into the game as well as ways to overcome these parts.
Tale as old as time and not unique to the gaming industry. Not the same context, but how many companies have been ruined when the owner's spoiled brats "took over business" knowing barely anything about the craft.

What a shame
We'll be hearing more wacky money drain adventures from Megan Ellison. I have no doubt.
25 talented video game developers out of work, meanwhile Sony burns $400 million to push woke Concord.
Well, I've just won a bet. When I first heard about this story, I bet my wife that a woman was to blame for this. Gess I was wright 😂.
What did you win
Sleeping on the couch unfortunately. Bro sacrified everything for the truth.
He won bj's from a married woman. The highest honour
I really hope the team resurfaces under a new name. I loved Stray, it is just something so different, unique, well crafted and above all fun compared pretty much anything else in the industry. Just a pure game with a cool story, no microtransactions and made with love and passion. Its a rare thing and I need more of it.
they don't make games, they are a publishing company, BlueTwelve made the game, no devs left or were laid off, instead executives did
What do you all make of this?
I think the woke dream is finally ending and everyone is waking up to this nightmare
@@Muni_zklz Well said!
@@Muni_zklz It's not just ending, it's being ended.
our hands are firmly around it's neck.
uh.. Billionaire Daddy being doting to the point fail to see how much failure of his daughter is on handling company and money..
People in the company decide to leave knowing full well the company in bad hand...
@@lunasakara7306 We are the reverse sleep paralysis demon.
"Leader" lol, or just a grown up nepotism child a bunch of normal working people need to babysit.
Right? lol
Daddy should have left his daughter to swim in the ocean.
Yup, I decided to update myself on the mess that is the gaming industry. First thought came to mind. Sweet baby Inc is a mafia. Which means so many other also use the same tactics
"a walkout that has left 25 individuals jobless" what?! They self-fired themselves irrespective of the reason. IGN 'reporting' and writing utterly sucks.
annapurna arent a dev studio they are a publisher
Well what do you expect when you put a woman in charge? 😂😁 I'm joking ofcourse but then again there is a reason as to why stereotypes exist😁
PS thanks for the gifted membership! That was a very pleasant surprise to wake up to😁👍
Rebekah Valentine and IGN, I rate a 7, but honestly I trust neither.
IGN is the Stuckman of games. Give everything a 7, don't upset devs.
Hmmm what shame Stray seems unique... 😓
Girl boss ruined this company
So IGN do know how to do investigative journalism from time to time haa 😅😂
It must be so nice to fail so miserably and consistently and have a super rich safety net so you learn nothing and carry on.
Remember, this is the same company under Annapurna Pictures of Weinstein Company, so it's not even a surprise lol 😂😂😂
Corporate gonna corporate.
IGN isn't the best source for integrity and credibility nowadays. lol
Women in leadership. LOL.
Stray was f****** fantastic.
this person is not a gamer by heart , thus good luck to further investments and projects
Stray was a great game. Was hoping for a sequel. I guess that won’t be happening. lol.
They are publishers that left not developers another company made the game
I don't trust IGN.
Y’all want extra tragedy points? Too bad, it is prolly the case that daddy Elison bailed out his daughter that hard, because of his terrible relationship with his dad.
They changing location
Normally I'd say you should link to the original content you react on, but I'm on the fence with this one. I mean, does IGN really have gamers best interest these days?
They were blind side on the new deal and ignore their feedback. Plus they were walking one as they can't multitask. To make another game is another load on their work load. Clearly she doesn't check their progress, information and bulldoze house down. Clearly she does not care about the team working on as well other contracts companies?
I liked stray then again I am a cat person so😂
So did i
@@Hypnoticcoh well thanks for replying to my comment didn’t expect it at first keep up content grind
It lived up to its pawtential.
IP can be bought back for pennies by the ACTUAL makers once Annapurna goes belly up and needs liquidation.
Nimona is not a super woke netflix show?
btw important information, Annapurna Interactive is a publishing company, not a game development studio, game devs didn't leave, executives did, Stray was made by BlueTwelve, Outer Wilds by Mobius Studios, Neon White by Angel Matrix, What Remains of Edith Finch by Giant Sparrow, Firewatch by Campo Santo which by the way doesn't exist anymore because Valve used them for Half Life Alyx before throwing them out (which is a whole another topic about Valve's shitty behaviour in the industry)
Don't believe half-truths, don't become what you wish to destroy
Specially when those come from the words of those who tried destroying game companies in the past, like Game Science (Wukong)
I'm sure there are plenty of conservative male devs who would love to get hired and start making games for the billionaire woman who would never allow this to happens nevermind!
I am just waiting for this to turn out to be a 'Second Wind' type situation where the people who left the company turn out to be just as bad as the management they're blaming.
Time for these 25 individuals to form their own indie studio.
remember these are PUBLISHERS (read: glorified marketing team) and not DEVELOPERS (the ones that actually can program and make games), they haven't made a single game, all their credited games were made by someone else, they provided funding, marketing and ESG compliance and that's it, that's what a publisher does. IF you are lucky you can strike the ESG compliance and if you are unlucky you have to add "push to release the game before it's done" to the pile.
Why do people keep saying this? The people that quit weren't game developers, they were a publishing house. They didn't make game, only finance them. So, without their billionaire owner's money, these 25 people have nothing.
She was most likely investing in the Nose Candy Industry in Cancun.
✌😉☕
-L🌘E
Hmmmm the enlightening pouder? 😂😂😂
What did they people make.
Nothing. They are game publishers. They write checks to fund other game studios. That's why it will be easy to replace them.
id take anything rebekah valentine says with a grain of salt, shes nuts
I've been guessing a lot of it was the Remedy deal. These people liked publishing and funding smaller, creative games and didn't want to see all the company's resources tied up around a costly AAA sandbag, in the form of a media darling studio that just doesn't really sell enough to be sustainable. Or be taken over by some film and TV optioning rainbow chasing, culturally or financially. Consolidation around fewer bigger games and getting taken over by Hollywood culture and priorities has been a real problem for the last 10 years.
I loved stray
Same
So u like the studio that actually made it, cuz it wasn’t these people
I saw a picture of the ceo and let me tell you guys that it explains everything 😂
The amount of ignorance people are showing in these comments is hilarious, y’all don’t even know who actually made Stray and it shows. Y’all got headline baited 🤣🤣🤣
escpecially when he clear as day says "PUBLISHING STUDIO" four seconds into the video. I guess people havin even 4 seconds attention span nowadays is too much to ask for.
@@Fiffelito yeah but it’s not even just that people literally don’t seem to know the difference between a publisher and developer. I’m convinced they think it’s the same thing
☕
Annapurna has already gone under, the employees are right to leave. 😢
No way I'm this early.
I don't trust anything that IGN reports on. This seems really one sided and doesn't show the owner side of the story. Also quite disappointed on the way you refused to go over the full article and just injecting your disdain for people who have money and start businesses as if they have no right to try to live their dreams or ambitions. I personally feel like this was a dispute between owner and employees and the employees thought they had the right to bully an owner like they were some kind of union boss. I'm hoping the owner doesn't try to play ball with them anymore and hope every other development company sees who these people are and think twice about hiring them in case they pull the same stunt again.
She sounds like the kind of spoiled brat that tries to jump queues, and then when called out responds with "Don't you know who I am?" Unfortunately she has all of daddy's money behind her so will just be a permanent waste of oxygen like certain other people in the same boat, cough, Donald, cough.
they used to make good games. i didn't buy that cringe 'Stray' game. glad i didn't
I thought stray was good lol
The phuk is wrong with Stray?
I think you need to go to hospital. 😂
Stray is fine. Played through it with my kids.
Must be a dog person
Only thing cringe is your cat hating comment
