In the 2010s, the video game industry saw an ENORMOUS boom, with annual revenues jumping from 80 billion dollars to TWO HUNDRED billion over that decade, according to a report by investment research group Epyllion. But in recent years, that exponential growth hit a plateau. “Games were so successful both prior to & during 2020 & 2021, that they set kind of impossible standards for 2023 & 2024… And when the uptick flattened, it was seen as a tremendous failure.” That’s video game writer and creator Alanah Pearce from her recent video titled, “The games industry is screwed.” While the industry remains profitable, volatility has shaken investors and large game studios – and created major instability for workers. Last week, EA, which has a local footprint in Kirkland, announced a new round of layoffs – affecting hundreds of employees including workers at Respawn, the studio behind games like Apex Legends and the Star Wars: Jedi series. Things are changing for consumers, too: Microsoft recently announced that it’s raising prices across the entire XBOX platform, … hot on the heels of Nintendo announcing price hikes for its Switch 2 games. The gaming industry appears to be at a crossroads. GUEST: Jason Schreier, author & reporter at Bloomberg RELATED LINKS: The games industry is screwed.

This week saw the buying of Polygon (and subsequent layoffs), GiantBomb's implosion (and subsequent staff exodus) and in a bright spot Clair Obscur Expedition 33 released (it is great!) So, why is the industry seemingly cannibalizing itself at the height of its fortunes? Well, we've said it before: short term gains to entice investors. Alanah Pearce just did a deep dive video all about it. In her video she discusses an investment analysis of the video game market and she talks to investors to get their takes. We reference her video a lot because it confirms things we have said over the last year - now with hard data! Watch here: https://youtu.be/9HM9nmqNioQ?si=JNVKxNR0NTM0sEoQ

We're thrilled to have an incredible guest—Alanah Pearce. Alanah is a true multi-hyphenate: an actor, voice actor, video game writer, and content creator with a massive following of over 2.2 million fans. During this episode we talk about how she's making her mark in the horror film industry, starring in V/H/S Beyond and creating an episode of the upcoming animated horror series Dark Corners. Stay tuned as we chat with Alanah about her incredible journey, her transition from gaming to film, and the exciting projects on her horizon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
During her third appearance on Collider Ladies Night, Kate Siegel laughed and said, “It's so cliché for an actor to be like, ‘Oh, what I really want to do is direct,' but I think what I really want to do is direct.” With each and every interview I've done with Siegel, for Ladies Night and beyond, it's become more and more clear that not only does she have a firm handle on her craft as an actor, but she also has a deep understanding of and enthusiasm for the entire filmmaking process. Now that she's put that passion and skill set to use on her directing debut, the V/H/S/Beyond segment “Stowaway,” it's undeniable. Siegel is meant to be a filmmaking multi-hyphenate. Penned by Mike Flanagan, “Stowaway” features YouTube star, journalist and voice actor Alanah Pearce as Halley, a young mother who heads out into the desert in hopes of having and documenting an extraterrestrial encounter. After interviewing a number of locals, Halley does manage to track down a spaceship, but the thrill of discovery is short-lived. Halley's eagerness to explore the unknown lands her in a nightmarish situation that forces her to confront what she's left behind at home in pursuit of finding something out of this world.Siegel has a wealth of experience in film and television. Not only has she starred in hits including The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass, and The Fall of the House of Usher, but she also headlined and co-wrote the 2016 gem Hush. How did those titles and more tee her up for success behind the lens as a director? That's what we dug into during her third go-around on Collider Ladies Night. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Join us for another exciting episode of the Crystal Core Radio Podcast! This week, we kick things off with an incredible story from Chris about his recent ultra-marathon adventure. Chris recounts the challenges and triumphs of completing a grueling 50-mile mountain trail race, complete with anecdotes about elevation changes, aid stations, and the physical toll on his body. It's a tale of perseverance and determination that you won't want to miss. Following the marathon saga, we delve into a thought-provoking discussion on game accessibility, sparked by recent comments from Alana Pierce. We explore the balance between making games accessible to a wider audience and maintaining the intended challenge and experience. The conversation touches on the nuances of situational disabilities, the impact of societal norms on game design, and the practicalities of implementing accessibility features in multiplayer games like Final Fantasy XIV. Speaking of Final Fantasy XIV, we share our initial impressions of the newly released Dawntrail expansion. From the smooth launch experience to the new jobs—Pictomancer and Viper—we break down what's exciting and what might need some tweaks. We also discuss the game's highest concurrent player numbers since A Realm Reborn and what that means for the community. Whether you're deep into the MSQ or just starting out, there's something here for every Warrior of Light. In addition, we touch on the uncertain future of Blue Protocol, the MMORPG from Bandai Namco. With speculation about its possible cancellation and comparisons to games like Lost Ark, we weigh in on what might be next for this highly anticipated title. Finally, we wrap up the episode with our popular 20 Questions game, where Chris and Chili try to guess a classic RPG from the 80s. It's a fun and engaging segment that puts their gaming knowledge to the test. Don't miss out on this packed episode filled with personal stories, deep dives into game mechanics, and the latest gaming news. Tune in, and let's explore the world of gaming together!

If you're obsessed with Delorians, The Mummy and Pizza you can discuss that stuff with him directly over on Twitter: @JakeBaldino- Lucy James is a Senior Producer at Gamespot and a Creative Producer at Giant Bomb. She's actually, like, experienced and credentialed and has real life skills and stuff, while the rest of the gang would be funemployed if the YT algorithm didn't kiss them for random, inexplicable reasons. - Jirard (aka The Completionist: https://www.youtube.com/c/ThatOneVide...) has been doing YouTube since before Noah wore short pants. Over the course of more than a decade, Jirard has completed HUNDREDS of games to bring you the quality of review that almost no other reviewer dare bring you, getting the 100% completion trophy for every title before putting pen to paper. Jirard has a let's play channel and in his spare time he fires off the occasional hot-take over on Twitter: @TheCompletionist- Skill Up used to work at McDonalds but he got fired for skimming too many chicken nuggets. He says he regrets it since he's never had a better job since. --Listen to the Friends Per Second Podcast on your favourite podcast platform: https://linktr.ee/friendspersecondFollow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheFPSPodcastFollow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/friendspers...Follow on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@friendspersecond--
