Skill Up's latest video delves into Alana's eventful journey back home, complete with a cyclone encounter and scorching heat in LA. The team, amidst apologies for missing a newsletter, delves into the peculiarities of this year's GDC, noting low attendance possibly due to exorbitant costs and travel uncertainties. They touch on the buzz around game developer unions and the surprising mobile adaptation of Disco Elysium, sparking a lively debate on the appeal of hardcore games on mobile platforms and the challenges of marketing to that audience. The discussion then takes a sharp turn towards Tencent's whopping 1.16 billion euro investment in Ubisoft's flagship IPs, leaving the team pondering the fate of Ubisoft's other projects in this strategic stock market move.
