Hey Strangers, #layoffs #gaming #marvelrivals Marvel Rivals is easily one of the most popular games this year, drawing hundreds of thousands of players on Steam alone. And yet it's developer NetEase has laid off a team who worked on the game out of its Seattle-based studio.Game director Thaddeus Sasser wrote a post on LinkedIn about the layoffs, which specifically mention level designer Garry McGee as one of the affected developers, and level designer Jack Burrows corroborated the news with his own post.“This is such a weird industry,” Sasser wrote, “My stellar, talented team just helped deliver an incredibly successful new franchise in Marvel Rivals for NetEase Games […] and were just laid off!”=======================================My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************Something Strangehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRjVc2TZqN4&t=4s**************************************************article links:https://www.polygon.com/gaming/525114/marvel-rivals-layoffs-director-netease-gameshttps://gameworldobserver.com/2025/01/09/marvel-rivals-revenue-136-million-first-month-globalhttps://www.reddit.com/r/marvelrivals/comments/1hyzyyt/how_much_did_it_cost_netease_to_make_marvel_rivals/======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe9xwdRW2D7RYwlp6pRGOvQ?sub_confirmation=1Twitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcodermerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

NetEase Games, developer of Marvel Rivals, laid off their Seattle-based team this week after posting the next season update for the live service project. Not all of the names of those affected have been publicized but in this episode of Snap Aim, we dive into those named, NetEase's earnings in the last year, and why NetEase would dissolve their US team.
In a surprising move, NetEase has laid off its U.S.-based development team for the highly successful game Marvel Rivals, despite the game's impressive performance and growing player base.Marvel Rivals, a free-to-play hero shooter launched in December 2024, quickly gained traction, amassing over 20 million players within its first 11 days. Despite these achievements, NetEase decided to disband the Seattle-based team responsible for aspects of the game's development. Game Director Thaddeus Sasser announced the layoffs on LinkedIn, expressing his disbelief: "This is such a weird industry. My stellar, talented team just helped deliver an incredibly successful new franchise in Marvel Rivals for NetEase Games... and were just laid off!" Level Designer Jack Burrows also confirmed the layoffs, stating, "Welp, just got laid off from my job working on Marvel Rivals with NetEase." NetEase addressed the situation, stating that the layoffs were part of a strategic restructuring to "optimize development efficiency for the game." The company emphasized that the core development team in China remains intact and committed to delivering new content for Marvel Rivals. This decision aligns with NetEase's recent trend of scaling back its U.S. operations. In November 2024, the company ceased funding for Worlds Untold, a studio founded by BioWare veteran Mac Walters, and in January 2025, it shut down Jar of Sparks, led by Halo and Destiny 2 developer Jerry Hook. The layoffs have sparked discussions within the gaming community about the volatility of the industry, especially when successful projects face unexpected team reductions. As Marvel Rivals continues to thrive, players and industry professionals alike are left questioning the rationale behind such corporate decisions.Sources: NetEase lays off Marvel Rivals' Seattle Developers Marvel Rivals player count | How many people are playing?

Kan Marvels helte redde Hero Shooter genren? At lave en solid hero shooter kræver mere end bare farverige karakterer og klassiske spiltyper som “Capture the Flag” eller “Hold Point”. Med titler som Team Fortress 2 og Overwatch som pionerer, er spillermarkedet blevet mere kræsent – vi forventer innovation og nytænkning. Vi har allerede set genre-blandinger som Valves MOBA-inspirerede Deadlock, Respawns Battle Royale-hit Apex Legends og Riots taktiske shooter Valorant. Men kan det klassiske hero shooter-format stadig holde trit, hvis det spiller på de rigtige nørdestrenge? Det er netop, hvad NetEase Games og Marvel Entertainment forsøger med Marvel Rivals. Ved at kombinere det velkendte hero shooter-format med en af verdens største franchises, håber de at skabe noget, der kan udfordre genrens sværvægtere. Men spørgsmålet er: Er Marvel-navnet alene nok til at skubbe konkurrenterne af banen? Eller mangler der noget mere for at vinde spillernes opmærksomhed? Følg med, når vi dykker ned i Marvel Rivals og vurderer, om det har, hvad der skal til! I denne episode deltager Morten Vilstrup Pedersen, Anne Elsberg, Henrik Brandt, Michael Engelbreth og Daniel Møgelhøj Tusind tak, fordi du lytter med.

This week Brett reviews Once Human, an MMO survival game that is a mix of Control and Death Stranding for the story. It also gains influences from The Division, Palworld, New World and many other games to make for a surprisingly compelling and engaging experience. The progression is impressive, the building is expansive, the world is fun to explore and you can jump in and out of the game with friends with no problem. We also share our first look at Concord on PS5. It's a new live service game that PlayStation is pushing. Firewalk Studios is the developer with veterans from Destiny. The game features a futuristic, 70's vibe with a variety of characters in a hero shooter that feels really high-quality but doesn't quite deliver on anything revolutionary. Will it find an audience? We'll see when the game launches in August.After playing the First Descendant, we decided to jump back into Destiny 2 and compare the two looter shooters. They have a lot of similarities but utlimately only one can win our time so find out which one we landed on in this episode.Lastly, Brett reviews a game called Humanity. It's an indie game where you guide a dog around to lead a group of people to this light in the sky. You must creatively maneuver them through the world to get to their destination. It's ok if some falloff, they'll come back. It's a charming, relaxing game that's worth trying out on Xbox Game Pass!Show Notes:1:14- Housekeeping3:23 - Once Human Early Review33:32 - Concord Beta Review: The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly1:05:04 - The First Descendent or Destiny 2: The Battle of Looter Shooters1:37:15 - Humanity Review1:49:27 - Upcoming Video Game Releases Become a part of the conversation!
