Destiny creators Bungie lay off 220 people and form new studio within Sony to stave off financial ruin

“to stave off financial ruin” is some pretty intense editorializing by RPS. They missed an earnings expectation, and yet they still had the highest active player numbers in history on Steam. The made-up goal was intentionally unreachable, to give Sony the excuse to do this whenever they wanted. Bungie was fine.
