‘Grand Theft Auto' maker Take-Two, Electronic Arts likely to avoid big hit during strike by industry talent: analysts
New York Post· 2024-07-30 00:21
文章核心观点 - 大型游戏发行商如EA和Take-Two将能够避免声优和动作捕捉艺术家罢工对其造成重大打击,因为它们拥有内部工作室,且游戏开发周期较长[1][6][7] - 这次罢工发生在游戏需求疲软的关键时期,因为疫情期间的热潮已经消退,玩家更倾向于玩大作[3][4] - 与去年编剧和演员罢工造成的中断不同,这次罢工预计影响较小,因为这些工人只占游戏开发过程和预算的一小部分[5][9] 行业总结 - 大型发行商通常需要3-10年开发大作,因此即将推出的作品不太可能受到这次罢工的影响[6][7] - 声优预算较小,公司没有太大动力推迟项目,一旦有开发商妥协,其他人可能会跟进[9] - 这次罢工将是即将公布的财报中的热点话题,反映了行业内大规模裁员和工作室关闭的现状[10] - 如果到9月初仍未解决,可能会持续到节日季,对发行商造成更大影响[11]
