Embracer Group begins to crumble. | Easy Achievers Podcast ep. 161
Channel: Easy Achievers
Date: 2023-06-20

We had an interesting week filled with a variety of random news stories and discussions that kept us all busy. One topic that's still causing a lot of debate is Starfield and its target frame rate of 30 fps. People have been going back and forth on that one. There's also been talk about games taking longer to develop than ever before. We got some insight into the work of different developers, like the former Sony Santa Monica employees revealing that Sony expects a 90 Metacritic score for their games. And did you know that Titanfall 3 was in development for almost a year? We also heard from Cory Barlog, who shared his thoughts on why games are taking so long nowadays.

But that's not all! We still have two showcases left to cover, so check out  my breakdowns of each. However, the biggest story of the week has been the downsizing of Embracer Group, which has sparked a lot of discussion.

As always, I want to thank you all for tuning in and supporting the show in your own way. Your support means a lot. See you next week!
