this was my home. I feel lost.

Sucks that they lost their job. But this is why you don’t make your place of business your home. That attitude is how many companies get away with low pay and long hours. Bet Bungie told her that they are a family. She will quickly find out that the friends she made at the company were only friends of convenience. Especially the ones that still work there. Most of them will stop talking to her.

This is why you shop around after every 4 years or so or after every release and look for better pay. And yes sometimes it means getting a job outside gaming. And make sure you have a social life outside work and build relationships with people that aren’t colleagues.
