>wanting to be a tranny communist who leeches off others
I'd rather be a wagecuck desu
love that guy. Fuck pathetic dogs like you and capitalism.
Eat shit and die, you half-assing motherfucker. I have been working 14 hours days for a couple of months now. Stop bitching. You are making a game. If you want the game to sell, then shut up and do your fucking work. Or go work as a barista. You people arent that tallented for anything and hardly for the job you even do right now.
>New director for marketing comes in
>Does a power play and demands we get a certain project out by the end of November to make it before Christmas
>Cancels PTO time for Thanksgiving Week and expects Thanksgiving Day to be worked on as well
>All of us in engineering find a job with a better manager shortly after the order, killing the project
You could get a real job broski
>let me just get rid of every single reason to work here
>that'll whip them in shape!
quit and find a new job
ez
AHEM
Where the fuck do those cunts come from?
I always drop a job whenever some cunt-tier executive order comes up like this.
unless you're an employee of the union itself, you're still a wagie if you're in a union
what were you doing the rest of the year
no wonder all your games suck
This shit happens because these directors are retarded and believe everything should work like it did in the 90s and early 2000s
>Have a wife and kids?
doesnt matter theyll appreciate you putting food on the table and missing major events to put out a game for children
>sick
Welp not our problem, if you cant make it to work youre fired
>Want to be paid more for working over 40 hours a week?
fuck you we will hire shitty interns or idiots out of college looking for work. someone will take the job
actual retard opinion
Took long enough for people to wake from blizzard nostalgia
This
>tfw the conservatives got me by the balls so hard I think demanding to be paid for my work and to have the ability to see my family on a regular basis is a Communist plot to destroy my country
That dude did nothing wrong. Blizzard fucked up and they needed to be called out for it. How do you justify building up a Diablo game and only have it be an outsourced mobile game?
Dance for me wagie
AHAHA GET FUCKED
How is saying one passive aggressive comment does so much damage to a multi-billion dollar company?
Fuck China.
fuck off op, you are a faggot, go back to werk so we can pirate your motherfucking garbage game!
is op's post an off-season april fool's joke?
where they come from? They come from project where people leave. Making them egt put in another place... For people to leave again. hehehehe
unironically this, senpai
It's not his fault, its your bosses fault for thinking that wouldn't happen.
poor working conditions in the 90s/00s were what separated the developers who were passionate about game design from "game developers" who only want their pay check.
Exactly. Just look at Bioware. How long did Anthem take to make? 7 years?... or 6..... Cant remember. But basicly they spent the last 1 year to actualy amke the game. Making you wonder what the fuck they were doing the rest of the time. Sitting on twitter. Bitching in the office. Doing hardly any work... Whille geting paid full. Not being paid less. And then they complain about a project being stressfull. THey are paid for that wholle time... Not for 1 year.
>Thinking that being able to see your family and have a life is communism
at least they had creative input then
Dont be mad at this guy, be mad at the board for not knowing what the consumers want and causing this situation.
40 hours a week.. Is hardly anything. That is 8 hours every weekday. Not counting weekends. Its a basic 8-16 job. Many people work from 7-18/19. And those people run around going from place to place. Whille these idiots sit around in an office all that time... Not needing to do any heavy lifting. They have others do it for them. They should wait untill they work 98 hour weeks. Doing heavy lifting and many other dirty work that most people dont want to do... Then they would probably apreciate just how comfy their 8 hour jobs and their 40 hour work weeks are.
Exactly. They could have given some information about The OTHER Diablo project they said there was. "Multiple Diablo Projects".. Is what they said. And what did we get? A Diablo game.. on the mobile.. And having some rather cool things that SHOULD be int he actual game.::... But nope. For the mobile. ANd its probably NOT going to be a free game. Its going to be a purchase game. Full of microtransactions.. Since its a ching chong made game now.
For real, being pissed at that guy is like getting stabbed, not giving a fuck and then getting offended when a doctor sticks a needle in you because you needed stitches.
youre a faggot.
don't respond to namefags, retard

Do you think the average dev has the full roadmap in hand and was just jerking off the whole time instead of working? If you work an 8 hour day, get no work for 7 hours, and get given 8 hours of work to do in the last hour, you'll have a stressful fucking job despite it being "reasonable" on aggregate.
>Imagine drinking the Murdoch/Koch Kool-Aid so hard you are against collective bargaining within a free-market labor system
good goy
be a little cuck for wageberg
The more correct term would be calling it INCOMPETENCE. You fire people for that.
WHY CANT YOU KEEP WORKING? DONT YOU GUYS HAVE COMPUTERS
Go back to your Chapo discord
>make garbage mobileshit
>people don’t like it
FUCK YOU GUYS WE WORK LONG DAYS!!!!!!!
Ive met a few AAA devs. They are almost always disgusted. Yet when you talk to enterprise devs or proprietary project devs for internal software they are happy and richer. Why is this.
Then unionize, you stupid fuck.
>work 98 hour weeks
Yea Forums is an American image board, Chang.
>gamedev interview
>ask a question about crunches
>interviewer becomes evasive and says "well it's a game development after all, crunches are to be expected"
>ask if they're paid for
>...
The will abuse every single drop of passion you have.
thanks to the power of marketing, games make a shitload of money and the supply/demand of the workforce is massively skewed so massive publishers can afford to death march devs into the ground before buying the next studio.
All he was upset about was your company making a shit mobile game, not about you not working enough hours.
ohh yes take more of my wages boss-senpai, I'm so little and worthless
Mr. Shekel won’t let them, and they’re so drenched in onions that any semblance of desire to stand up for themselves has fled their body, along with their masculinity.
All that overtime and you still can't make good games.
>friend is rockband dev
>is let go with all his friends because even though they make great games its too expensive to store massive warehouses of unsold plastic instruments
Being a game dev sounds awful
Not from Asia btw. I just do jobs that most people DONT want to do. I get paid a fair bit. Its messy work. And technicly, Yea Forums isnt an American image board. Its an "English-Languege Imageboard". And last time i heard... Moot isnt the boss anymore. He took the money and fucked of to die from aids. Hiroyuki Nishimura is the owner.. So.. Technicly.. its an Asian. More correct a japanese image board now. Also. Moot is working for Google. Maybe he is one of the people that is fucking shit up.
if you been working for 12-14 hours a day, like actually working on a project you wouldn't deliver shit on plate as you trying to do with some chinks via mobile.
I hope all bad that is possible happens to you and your dog shit company filled with overpaid trash of human waste like yourself.
Vanilla devs worked less hours, had a smaller team and still managed to deliver a more polished comlete product.
>How dare they say they DO NOT LIKE what I worked so hard on! Just shut up sheeple we know best!
Jessica price? Is that you?
and why is it his fault and not the terrible lack of foresight that blizz has?
You see the problem right there. He wasnt working with co-workers. He was working with friends. No shit he gets fired. Did he expect to stay at the same place forever? Thats not how things work.
What did this red shirt man say? Will they start banning red shirts at blizzcon? It seems like its always someone in a red shirt that puts them on the spot and makes them look like idiots.
sitting on ur ass 12 hours a day isn't a real job lol, your job is a luxury job that doesnt need to exist
everything in game dev can be outsourced to chinks for 25 cents an hour
make me a game wagie, and make sure the boobs are really big!
Fucking based
Was your april fool's joke late too?
Why would you willingly choose to work for video games? There's a never ending crushing wave of delusional dorks coming behind you dreaming of being the next Kojima. You have no leverage if you're easily replaced.
What, you guys have time right?
Because they actualy had people who were qualified to work on these games. Devs who were eager to learn, to improve. To grow and expand.. What devs are today. Nothing but, bitching over and over. They claim games have a higher budget to make games. Yet. What do they even waste money on in the first place? If an indie game with a budget of less than 100k..Hollow KNight, 57k budget. Hear praise about it. Its rather anoying that we dont really get to know development cost of most of the tripple A games... But i think most of them would cost wayyyyy to much to make. Making you wonder... What were they paying at all.
Fag
That's why you either need to be really good or work for yourself. Also, programmers are not that easy to replace if they're working on game engine.
