Unfortunately, wasn't the end of tough times for the game industry. and EverQuest developer Daybreak Game Company has that it's laying off staff as it's "optimizing [its] structure" for the future. The company didn't say how many people were losing their jobs, but former Daybreak president John Smedley had briefly claimed on Twitter (since absent) that the cuts affected as many as 70 people.
