    Microsoft really doesn’t understand how well teams can work together. They notoriously hire contractors to avoid needing to pay benefits, rotating them out every 18 months. For them to create team dynamic ideas like “forming storming norming performing”, they really don’t follow any of them.

        I am just love watching these companies seeing the downfall of it. Google did short term profits instead of quality for search and now people are looking for competitors and profits are dropping. People don’t watch new Netflix shows because they know they’ll be cancelled. So many more. It’s delicious.

    I still need to play Prey. It’s all on my wishlists on Steam or Gog, but haven’t gotten around to it.

      It’s a fantastic game. I haven’t finished it, but it was a really interesting atmosphere and I loved the horror game mechanics combined with that Bethesda feel it had. Felt in between Fallout 4 and Starfield with good components taken from each.
