Can confirm an analyst on the Los Angeles team did take his own life late last month.
this is so sad and depressing
Terrible to hear. Anyone have additional insight on the situation? Had a buddy interview for a spot in that office (can’t remember which team) and he had good things to say about the people he met with
how to cope with negative feelings in this industry? Been feeling dark
You should just go crazy with VIC/Twitter and some solid places will definitely give you a look for L/S if your ideas print.
Probably not helpful but whenever I’m in a really dark place I think about how GTA VI comes out 5/26/2026 and I just think about how I need to be alive and around so I can play it
