Alanah Pearce is leaving Sony Santa Monica

TLDR: Her stepdad got cancer and passed away recently. She feels she has missed out on life, family and birthdays at home.

Not sure it's the right decision but she is hoping to freelance and still make enough money. Sounded like USA had drained her as well as working for ten years and only getting 10 vacay days

Call me an old man yelling at clouds, but who cares? She was there for like 2 years and didn’t do anything impactful. Why make a video about it? If this was Cory Barlog, it would make sense because he has been there so long and has done so much, but who does she think she is?

This behavior of announcing everything on social media and making videos about themselves whenever those occasions arise make me intensely dislike the narcissistic social media generation. Always me, me, me.

Honestly, what was she doing there?
Helping with the script? I really doubt it. Maybe NPC dialogue in the background, but mostly she was bringing coffee to the interns. Santa Monica hired her as a “com plan”, showing her tits on video and getting the word out about game releases.

Good for her I guess? Not that matters much to me since I see nothing about her that interests me.

Oh yeah? Like work life balance is so hard she just manages to run a multiple YouTube channels like full time?

And I looked at her Instagram, surely that's exactly how I imagine a weary full time working person's life.

Ah man......sucks about her stepdad.
 
Jesus christ. This woman is talking about leaving a full time job because her stepdad died of cancer and she realized living in a different country and barely seeing her family is not working for her, specially when the one time she spent the most time with her family in 10 years was to watch someone die and she needed this wake up call to make this decision and y'all are talking about her qualifications. Have some fucking respect guys. Seriously.

Wonder how many hours she clocked in on an average week. Super weird to be employed by a developer and then going around promoting your competitors products all the time.

Everyone on youtube was doing this and selling out lol. They definitely didnt individually all have the idea of making a video for gamepass and saying its the best deal in gaming every couple of videos….

I heavily doubt that it’s due to hubris, frankly. Alanah has her own community, and a rather large one at that. She probably felt the need to update people that follow her closely of her current status, where her headspace is at, and what her goals are, and have something that will set the record straight for her community in one fell swoop so that any future questions can be cut down significantly. It’s probably as simple as that.

Plus, her stepdad passed away due to cancer; if she wants to update people about her life and have an introspective dialogue, then there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. Cancer hits people hard, family members of the person with cancer included; I know firsthand what said feeling of heaviness feels like. Alanah is fine.

Very resumed from her video. It seems like she decided to leave cuz her dad passed away and she feels like she was away from home and her family cuz had to be working a full time job in the US, and now she wants to just work as freelance to have more time to spend with her family.

I only know her because she had a baity video about 40K and I wanted to see what she had to say about it. It turns out she loves it. Cancer is fucked up. Best of lucks.

Her personal life is none of our business. If you don't want people commenting on it then don't put this stuff online it's as easy as that.

Bro it's her social media for her followers. We don't get upset every time your mom posts something on facebook.
