Il vuoto di Cork è dietro un successo di gioco globale pronto o no, ma avverte che l’Irlanda non riesce a sostenere l’ascesa del settore

Damn had not even heard of this, will pick it up.

Game development was huge when I was going to college about 10-12 years ago, The problem at the time was job prospects out of it were slim.

Completely agree, the government do fuck all to support game studios vs how they bend over backwards for other kinds of tech company. I work for Larian Studios, we’ve made our best efforts over the years to get some momentum from the government to inventivise studios and devs to move here as well as to encourage educational institutions to offer courses in game design but unfortunately not had much success. That’s even after we produced a GOTY title (and should be noted Larian Dublin is one of the main development studios, unlike studios like Riot who mainly cater to non dev teams).

One that still really pisses me off is the largest games industry conference in Europe (Gamescom, Cologne) has no official representatives from Ireland.

Ukraine, a country in the midst of a full scale war does….let that sink in. Even Quebec has it’s own alongside Canada itself.

It’s a huge blindspot for Enterprise Ireland and something I’ve made my own efforts to try and get moving but had no luck.
