Square Enix Launches Permanent Work-From-Home Program Next Month:
2020 has been a year like no other - with pretty much the entire tech and video game industry required to work from home during the height of the pandemic.
With this in mind, Square Enix - publishing upcoming releases like Balan Wonderworld and the recently revealed NEO: The World Ends With You - has announced it will offer employees and executive officers more flexibility with a "Work-From-Home" program.
The program will start on 1st December and Square Enix expects approximately 80% of its team to be home-based (working an average of at least three days per week from home). Office based roles will depend on the work required (with the employee working an average of at least three days per week from the office).

Next thing you know the AI will be working from home and you'll be on UBI, smoking weed and masturbating. You don't need very many smart people to make video games, you just need a derivative story and a good titty-n-blood engine.

Waking up in a futuristic world full of zombie dinosaurs, our heroes discover that their computer game manufacturing programme has broken down. They need to wander around collecting random fish/plants/diamonds/dinosaurs for unclear reasons in an effort to reconstruct the computer game manufacturing programme. Oh and aliens.

Dammit! I was hoping the sexbots would at least make it to market before the AI workers. Now you're telling us we have to take care of it ourselves? So much for hands-free.
Well, at least the AI will probably have genetically engineered the weed to the, er, dankest bud (is that the right term?) by then.
