>220-plus hours during a month
Is this supposed to be a lot? A month has 730 hours.
Yeah man so cool, exploiting interns ! I wish all my favorite big corporations were like this. I love dehumanization, especially when I'm the one with power !
This is literally the entire customer service industry, remind me why I should give a fuck?
Im completely ok with this, because by large while I enjoy games and gaming I can unironically say I hate 99% of game devs and all that entails, from the lowest position to the highest they are almost to a man (should I say xir?) overwhelmingly leftist, insufferable new age "socially aware" faggots and cunts with blue hair and piercings. Who continually demean and shit talk their own user base and then act the victim when said users fire back. Im tired of them and the system that supports them and im glad they suffer. Its the same reason while the whole argument about Epic being "better for devs" doesnt affect me. I don't give a fuck about the devs, they deserve hate, they deserve lower pay, I hold no sympathy. All the good devs are either retired or quit the industry, there is nothing left but an ocean of mediocre college grads with entitlement issues living in San Fran
>I wish all my favorite big corporations were like this
They pretty much are. Really cannot understand the American intership system.

Nah, how else are you going to deal with internal leakers if you don't know who did it
I uh, I still do too. Not immediately or anything. Just sometime after I get to reflect on it. Really makes me think of my dad and the abuse I received as a child.
Do you work in the customer service industry?

Now if we were talking about full time employees, yeah, bring the guillotine, the bourgeois must die. But contractors? Fuck you women, niggers and nigger women
when you're a contractor, your pay is shit compared to the full-time workers
funny how "journos" suddenly demands no proof when it's about sjw being bullied and hated by white people
Game devs are subhuman and as such do not deserve basic human rights.

The second post doesn't work so well as a direct comparison, but swap NDA breach with low productivity and the meetings are comparable. Also overtime is an unofficial issue, since almost no company will pay overtime in this industry. Some people still work it, though.
no, contractors get paid more than their equals in full-time positions, but they don't get benefits and lack job security
/thread
Fuck Netherrealm and fuck MortalCuckbat
can't even begin to comprehend how you came to this conclusion
This is why you dont hire trannys and woman. All they do is cry
-Ok, but only with beautiful17 years old never with a postwall hag or worse yet...a post-op freak!
Nigger women are the worst. And that's at the top of the Diversity hiring list.
Affirmative Action is more racist than even I am.
Not really, it just makes them even more hypocritical. Then again that's how companies work, they insert liberal leftist shit in their products and virtue signal about "core values" while operating with cutthroat capitalism themselves.
Since everyone can influence their place of employment I don't have that much against it by principle or anything, but you just fucking know that same people who dehumanize interns and abuse women at the workplace will get away with it by tweeting about new feminist game designs.
But as said in the thread before, it kinda serves snowflake devs right that they get buckets of ice water on their faces from actual indistry after they leave their college safe spaces, and serves the compaby right that they get bad press to bite them in the ass after all the virtue signaling they don't live up to themselves.
I just wanted to let you know that I liked your post and I agree with it.
Cheers, effort poster.
you should, at least because you are promoting trannies passing imaginary stories as news worthy of law changes.

A whole lot of this is a bunch of nothing that also happens regularly in every single other occupation. The only problem is the unpaid overtime, rest is just a bunch of hipsters crying about things blue collar workers have been enduring for decades now.
>220 hours a month
At four weeks a month that's only 55 hours a week, that's not nearly that bad. Lots of people work 60 hours weeks in many industries and not all of them are in comfy offices making video games.
>wageslave power games
nothing new, scum working for scum working for scum
Thank you Im an accelerationist when it comes to the games industry, I welcome its utter crash and burn and I hope it happens, I hope video games die as an industry for at least 10 years. Then we can start again.
It's almost like human society sucks monkeyfuck, and almost like having a scarcity of jobs instead of a scarcity of available workers is a civilization-destroying globalist disease.

>He says that lots of CS programs are being dumbed down now. For example, he says that there are schools who are removing math requirements from CS and are doing things to "improve diversity" by dumbing CS down drastically and that there is becoming increasing numbers of CS grads who "hold a degree from a university that would be equal to a community college CS degree 10 years ago".
>Along those lines, he said that there is "mass incompetence" in tech right now that would "scare the shit out of us" if we saw it first hand like he did. For example, he said the recent scandal of Facebook storing passwords in plaintext was "just the tip of the iceberg" of what he has seen and that at even the largest companies, "incompetence is widespread and only a handful of truly competent staff are keeping things together". He says that all it is going to take is a few of these morons doing a few big stupid things and substantially damage these companies if it ever hits the media. He said that he blames "diversity initiatives" for part of this and that he has been at some big tech companies that are now literally hiring based on skin color or genitals rather than credentials. Some people questioned this and he said "Go visit the IBM jobs website if you doubt me or any other tech hiring site at a mega-corp for that matter."
Put CS back as a math branch. See how the saturated offer practically disappears (along with women, poos and niggers) and salaries become competitive again for CS jobs. Devs will either have to step up their game or get fucked
All Lefty Gave Devs are complete faggots.
This, those kind of hours are pretty much standard in the restaurant and fine dining industry and if you ask about breaks you better be a fucking smoker.
THIS. I dont give a shit since they attacked my boner culture
Imagine being so cucked you voluntarily work 220+ hours a month.
I sobered up from the "Wanting to work in the games industry" meme while I was still in college, thankfully.
And what's worse is that 50 hour weeks aren't their standard, it's their "crunch time" or whatever they've been bullshitting about in other articles.
This but unironically. I have yet to see another use for women than being cum dumpsters. And no "killing albino zombies in tv shows" doesnt count as much as youd like it

>boohoo my job is hard making games and I had to put in overtime for a month and then they didnt even hire me full time
Seems they made the right choice to ditch the whiners, new comers looking to move in a rock the boat upon arrival.
I’m not sure who would be kept out if all schools kept math in CS. My college requires Calc 1 and 2 and then a third elective of your choice (linear algebra, calc 3, differential equations, etc) and even still I’d say my senior level classes are 40% white, 30% pajeet, 20% Asian and the rest a mix of black and Mexican. The gender disparity is about 80% guys to 20% girls. Maybe it’s worse at other schools but even with math requirements the classes are still fairly diverse

>Unironically
My comment was dead serious
This is just a dumb naive blue haired tranny who got dabbed on by AAA devs. hard crunch time, lots of hours, and stressful conditions in AAA studios and smaller studios too have been known for years. Its sad that she still doesn't know that this doesn't happen everywhere. They prey on gullible retards like her who want to work on their "passion" and are just out of college. She should talk to literally anyone with experience in the industry.
The only legitimate complaint is possible misogyny.
Those blue haired bitches have no trouble dehumanizing others. They deserve no pity. Fuck them
imagine making a super liberal spotted game, making bank off of it and not lifting a god damn finger.
if you thought the jax we was kangs shit wasnt remotely funny you've got to be mental.
The unadulterated truth made my day.
Thank you
In my school it got switched from the engineering department to math while I was there. It did change significantly because after that they were switched to "for math majors" math classes rather than the practical engineering ones I took.
From what I heard, they have CS sections with the same math course numbers there now, but I'm not that in tune with it since I was EE instead of CS and I'm a few years out. I'm sure it's wildly different depending on the school anyway.
I love hamburgers, but I don't give a fuck if the cow is abused before its slaughtered. Doesn't change the taste. Also, fpbp.
This made me happy
This.
It can, actually. Less so for ground meat, though. Stress means hormones flood the tissues.

55 hours a week is not little but also not that much.
Hire a PI.
There is like a 75% chance he raped a chick.
Digital distribution means no hard crash will ever happen. Big devs getting crushed won't have any major effect on the AA and indie market, if anything it'd bolster it.

It's more than the 160-180 hours that people usually work.
180 hours=8 hours work (1 hour break) mon->fri
160 hours=7 hours work (1 hour break) mon->fri
>A month has 730 hours.
Come on now user, now you are just shitposting. Would you want to work 220+ hours every month? That would be 8 hour work days every day of the week (monday->sunday) for a month straight.
No free days to do what you want, only the 1-2 hours before work and 4-5 hours you would get after work if you work from 7a.m->4p.m and during that time you would have to do a lot of other shit to actually make sure that you can keep living semi-comfortably, like buying food/toiletries, spending time from/too work, cooking/cleaning, general hygiene, etc. at that point you would probably only have 2-3 hours left every day to do what you want with. Unless you want to skip out on some sleep and live like a coffee addicted zombie and shorten you lifespan even more.

>avengers cinema popcorn messes
the what?
This is work 101 shit. Never ever ever do above and beyond what your job is unless you have a clear track of how it will benefit you laid out by someone that has the power to make sure you get rewarded and that you can trust. This is almost never.
For every dude who invents the quarter pounder and gets made COO of McDonald's there are untold thousands who get their ideas stolen and at best stay at that low level job, but more than likely get shown the door.
99% of the time being a try hard at work that does stuff above their pay grade without even being asked is not worth it. Why would they hire you to do something when you already gave them the ideas for free?????
every fucking industry does this, why are "games" workers acting like they're some oppressed special victims?
I work between 8 and 13 hour "days" and my life is fun and fulfilling. It'd be great to do my job in a city like Chicago (where NRS is) because there's so much culture there as well.
These contractors are almost certainly not coders. What these big productions need in large quantities are art assets
>especially for women. A lot of the nicknames for women were really perverted and disgusting.
>Gives no examples or hints
Yeah, I doubt the female nicknames were any worse than the male ones. Probably "big tits" or "Annie with the fanny". I'm really starting to tire of this whole "We have a problem that bad for EVERYONE but especially for women". If it's a people problem why do we even need the "especially for women"-bit? It's bad for everyone involved but it's extra bad for women because what?
I'm going to guess it's fat manchildren throwing their popcorn and garbage all over the floor after Endgame and then justifying it with "What? It's their JOB to clean up after me! They should be thankful that I'm tossing shit everywhere! I'm creating job opportunities!"
>Let's dehumanize those faggots, niggers and bitches
>WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY DEHUMANIZE US? SO MUCH OF THE TOLERANT LEFT
When did the right became such fucking faggots?
FPBP. I'm getting tired of these stories about devs working high amounts of overtime or being treated poorly. I don't fucking care.
Isn't this what unions are for, or am I missing something?

"Work hard and you will get your career forward" is a biggest scam that boomers pushed on their children.
>being able to dish it out but not take it

Literally the mentality of conservative wagecucks and their corporate overlords.
BASED. TRANNIES BTFO
Because it makes people sympathetic to them, making it seem like those bad games aren't so bad after all. I believe South Park called this the Mel Gibson defense. It worked with Bioware so we're probably gonna see this after a game isn't preforming as planed. I mean, it sucks for them but this happens all over the tech industry.
Apparently not if those sources are to be believed.
They have interns come up with some fatality ideas and then take the amazing ones without giving credit.
Unions take decades to form
They are not even workers, they are contractors
>being a schizo who sees tumblr everywhere
yikes
that was cathartic to read. Couldn't agree more
Have sex
Why would you expect continued work after your contract is up? Do these people really think they're not expendable? Especially the QA rats
The right have always been gutless shills. What else is new?
Just so. If you go into the AAA game dev industry these days, you know what you're getting into. The conditions have been well known for years. No sympathy.
YIKES...
doubt, unless you like your work. Then your just shitposting. Some people are fulfilled when they work but most people would rather have 40 hour work weeks. I Already feel like I don't have enough time as is.
Unions only work when labor is in demand. When there are hordes of shitty coders being spawned every day there will be no union
Kys nigger lover
Here's some advice for you:
Zoomers don't work hard.
I used to think that "work hard to move forward" was bullshit, too. Finally one day I realized that "working hard" wasn't pushing my self physically or mentally, it was getting the job done effectively. I flew up the ranks and, after looking down, realized how incorrectly young people perceived "hard work"
act like a cuck get treated like a cuck
>western game studio has both sides of the shits.
wow, who knew?
Your have the mentality of a poorfag. Im glad you will die like that
exactly, no sympy
Yup same here fellow zoomer, working hard got me the promotion in the job I got through a sturdy handshake and eye contact.
>sitting
>hard job
i think people thinking that there's any chance of a union forming are naive. what bargaining power do they have? the people who aren't replaceable won't bother to side with the unions because they already get paid well. there's a very large supply of drones willing to do grunt work for games, none of these companies are going to let unions have any power.
Did you get your job by going down to the local job factory and asking to speak directly to the manager as well?
>unless you like your work
That's the point, brainlet. You don't go work for NetherRealm because you need a summer job to get enough cash to take Suzy down to the beach; you work for a major video game studio because you are geniunely interested in that field.
You can't compare your wagie gig to actual careers.
>I Already feel like I don't have enough time as is.
Because you probably have poor time management.
>my life is fun and fulfilling.
You do you user, but just because you find your job rewarding enough to not want/not have other hobbies, does not mean that other people are as fortunate.
I used to work as a carpenter, but my old boss tried to do the ''crunch'' thing that many limp wristed fags cry about in the gaming industry and made an entire company of 60+ people crash and burn under the pressure and got his ass sued for malpractice. He managed to still keep a lot of the money he made from the company despite this, while the rest of us got burnt after our last check, be it either from mental or physical stress or thanks too some of us having to move to find new work since we lost our jobs during the 2007-2009 recession.
I landed a demolition job to pay my bills and I hate it. I would love nothing more then to re-school myself and start over as a programmer or an electrical engineer since I'm tired of working physically thanks to having done it all of my life, but I didn't take the leap early enough and once I'm done with school I will probably not be nearly as attractive in the job market as a young blue haired freak is. Besides, the risks of having to start over with less pay then I already have is not really that enticing, since I'm not some autist with a mathematics degree.
>TL:DR STAY IN SCHOOL AND WATCH OUT FOR THE FAT CATS

The only excuse for falling for that line is if it's your first job. Anyone else is a moron.

I want you to have sex with a girl because you fucking deserve it for having such a based post
This. Had the misfortune of working with basically teenagers for a project two years ago. I was absolutely astounded at how they acted like Friday was a godsend for their withered souls after they spent at least 50% of the work week looking at their phones in the corner and generally slacking off. I don't know how but for some reason the meaning of "doing hard work" has changed to "being around work that I don't like doing."
I worked as a lifeguard for about 7 years.
While it's bottom of the barrel employment it's still technically "working to save someone's life" at least on paper.
Same shit. Long hours, incompetent coworkers, dumbass bosses. Every single job has this shit.
If we talk about the west of the game industry I agree. I think the only ones that have yet to fall are CDPR and they are on the fence (I guess). Japan still makes great games though. While you may not like certain games from them, I think that most of the time it's not because of the developers themselves but rather a differing taste of games. The only real asshole from Japan that I can think of is Kamiya and people still like him spite of that. Kojima get a lot of mixed reactions as well.
They're baiting because they know that the vast majority are just honest people and are waiting for people to try to correct them so they can call them trannies and tell them to have sex.

Read the OP text again. Temp workers who only wanted to make a fun game were abused, it's the higher-ups (who are also responsible for removing tits) who were the abusers.
its almost like the people who preach wokeness, diversity and progressive nonsense are always the worst offenders of the ideas they shout about
weird that
I thought you Whtie boys loved people who do "real jobs" in IT, programming and STEM?
I'm noticing a trend of devs pretending to be woke for brownie points and then behind the scenes there's shit like this.
Weren't the LoL developers doing this shit as well? Can't remember if it was that or something else.
lol, I can imagine you both (or just you) trembling as you type that shit. You realise better men than you ever will be have cried? You realize most people who don't cry are autistic, yeah? Nah, you don't, autists have little self awareness. Cheers!

I am also noticing a trend of projection from gamers that openly hate women and think sexual harassment is okay, and think any man who doesn't hate women or LGBT people must have something nefarious in mind.
Based. I too hate this world.

This but unironically. They were the ones who chose this career. Also, it's not slavery, they can get the fuck out of there whenever they want and join a developer like Ubisoft which lets it's employees drink onions milk, play in the ball pit, sit in puffs and all that bullshit.

This victim complex bullshit that makes kids think their barely skilled labor is worth six figures is the reason that entry level positions list 2+ years of experience as a requirement. It immediately weeds out people like you who would rather sit back and complain rather than take initiative trying to talk to the company to negotiate what their skillset and ability is worth.
Riot had rape accusations and general juvenile shit (like higher ups farting in the face of their underlings). But since they held the LGBT panel where white men were not allowed, everyone pretends those actual rapes didn't happen.

I get why you hate zoomers and I agree with you, but trying to negotiate from a powerless position is just stupid.

There was no culture of hatred towards feminism on the whole of Yea Forums until they started fucking with games and comics. Alt-Right types have no strong political leanings of their own and would not exist were it not for SJWs pushing them into the position they are now.

>So, you want people to fight a losing battle?
Getting hired is inherently a losing battle. The fact that a company does not already have you hired means that they are able to operate without you. There will always be hundreds of far more qualified candidates somewhere, it just depends on whether or not any of them are applying. At the end of the day, you just have to remember that the worst thing that can happen is you get rejected and have to try somewhere else (which is why you're supposed to apply to a number of places instead of just one at a time). If you can't at least take a step forward and point to something that gives you worth to see how far you can get, then you can't really complain when you never get anywhere.
They are not, it's all just virtue signaling industry "influencers", journalists and literally whos who would throw women under the bus anytime when they find something more "marginalized"/problematic to screech about.

Well, atleast he apologised and then yelled at the right (hopefully) tree. My manager/supervisor never did. Neither did anyone above them. Private hospital.
I dont work there anymore either. They had an opening for a manager's position, but i skipped it. Did not want to deal with politics/manipulators.
The problem with the average jobber is that they will accept shit pay for shit jobs. If you let people walk all over you what do you expect to happen.
The only reason they went above and beyond was because they thought there a job was at the end of the rainbow. If I was fulltime I would be laughing at these numpties aswell.
Pretty simple, corporations are not allowed to pay anyone less than $15/hr but can't hire the manpower needed to make anything without going bankrupt, so they instead only pay the upper managers starting at $15/hr and everyone else that wants job experience to eventually be a paid upper manager someday has to work for free.

>scarcity of jobs
No there isnt there is a scarcity in certain fields in american society because we told everyone they could do what they want in some fields and shit flooded.
Its not hard to find an IT job if you have the credentials it pays for living.
Because unless you're a solo dev making everything by yourself or in a small team you have to try and get a permanent position at a studio if you want to get into making video games and because so many people want to get into it those with permanent positions consider these people as easily expendable resources they can milk and then dump with no regard to the fact that they're other people or that these devs had small beginnings too. Then if you have a permanent position but a small, easily replaceable one you get pressured into crunch work in a "Well you don't have to work an extra 13 hours buuuut the income report's coming in so we may have to make some cutbaaacks" kind of way.

Look up "the list". Its all the prominent gaming figures, mostly journalists and devs, who pushed SJW agendas only to get into trouble for sexual harassment.
Because the market is flooded with video game developers. So to get a job, either you prove yourself to be valuable or work harder for less. Since most of these devs are limp wristed bitches, they're trying to race each other to the bottom.
> My passion is in my own personal projects

Dont get me wrong, i have hobbies and personal projects and whatnot, but its something to be dropped and moved on with without issue. A hobby is something you do for personal enjoyment, but i feel like if you put your passion into it you will lose your enjoyment.

Probably trolling, but that's still relatively more tolerant. Arguing semantics like this is the most pointless shit. It's like if you use a paper towel because it's more absorbent than a napkin, you don't get to defend napkins by saying "SO MUCH FOR THE ABSORBENT PAPER TOWELS" when it has its own physical limits of absorbance.
They know what they're doing, it's a dumb tactic. The thing is you have to stop acting like a snowflake if you're going to try and turn the term around on the people calling you one.
This is bait. Nerds have always been the whipping boys since the 60s.
The definition of nerd changed as well. Since when does going and seeing Iron man 8 make you a nerd?

They're probably talking about what happened with Anita. Her videos weren't attacks on vidya, just feminist critiques. It's like reviewing a game, but based on the inherent difference in treatment of female characters in an industry that was largely run by men and for men. She didn't call this an attack on women, didn't say it was purposefully done to degrade women, and actually said that playing games like Duke Nukem won't turn you into a raging misogynist. She was still called a shrill bitch cunt and told to get raped. I know people like to think gamers dindu nuffin, but she closed her comments section for a reason.
I'd argue that "work hard to move forward" is still bullshit, because what you're talking about isn't "working hard". zoomers do work hard in that they exhaust themselves physically/mentally like you mentioned, but that effort's misplaced because the company really just wants the job done; they want results, not burnouts/tryhards.
There is no such thing as a man who cries. "Men" who cries are soiboi scum. As a man who pursues manliness and masculinity, there is nothing more disgusting than "men" who cries. Emotional outbursts are the epitome of anti-masculinity, and I view crying "men" with disgust otherwise reserved for cockroaches.
I worked as a part time technician in a college. The full timers would do the same thing. We rant he place while they were the face, or did larger projects. One tech would routinely do less than 20 tickets a month, while a part timer could do 50 or more, all for $10 an hour, 19 hours a week. Great experience however. But the problem was that the company counted part timer workers as having half the experience. So if you tried to get hired you would have to work there twice as long to get the experience needed to get a fulltime job. FT Tech 1 needs a year of experience? Better hope there's a full time position in two years. There was one FT tech who would routinely do 100 or more. He runs the place now. Just bought a house too. Wonderful guy.
I got a full time job at a different company, I work about half as much and make over four times what I did part time. It's honestly bizarre.
kek you think the emotionally stunted incels here will admit to crying?

>Batman's cape is a gameplay device to prevent the presumably male player from seeing his rear end during normal gameplay.

this, nobody gives a fuck about developer sob stories. fpbp
work is a meme, soon we will all be replaced by robots
What do you think happens at giant studios? Workers become commodities, and contractors get fucked on a constant basis.
Though I'd like to see a source for this.

>Her videos weren't attacks on vidya, just feminist critiques.
bullshit she implies that video games might influence your perception of women but at the same time said playing these games wont make you misogynistic its fucking double speak
As someone who left the computer programming industry to start working 12 hour industrial shifts, I would be absolutely fine with a 5 day work week instead of the 6 day work week I do now. Industrial jobs in fort Mac, and pipelines in general might be a fucked up work environment, but I've been doing it so long now it just feels normal. When I worked in the lumber industry and only did 40 hour weeks it felt like a god damned vacation.
She was talking about how desexualized male characters are in comparison to female characters, how the cape physics makes it cover the butt in most instances and how that compares to female design choices. It's a stupid thing to fixate on, so it's a passing comment.
Absolute state of Yea Forums
OH NO 55 HOURS A WEEK? OH MY GOD I BET YOU ALMOST BROKE A NAIL DOING ALL THAT WORK
It's calling out hypocrisy more than anything. Most people would aside from the thin skinned would be fine with them doing it so long as the kind done to them were as inconsequential I'd wager.
As in it's part of larger cultural elements, a factor. It's like how eating at McDonalds won't make you fat, but if you have a sedentary lifestyle and you eat a lot at McDonalds you might have a problem, and in this lol food analogy video games aren't the food but the Sprite from the soda fountain. She also says it's reflective of how women are scene and what's expected of them, part of the long history of making males of all shapes and sizes and females more similarly attractive.
>Actually defending that fraudster
You are pathetic
>what's expected of them, part of the long history of making males of all shapes and sizes and females more similarly attractive
so she is saying video games do affect the mind yes or no?
>mature games have some raunchy aspects
Amazing critique, thank you Anito Sockeesian.
It's not defending, just telling it like it is. I think she's often wrong and mostly doesn't matter. No dev needs a word of advice from her or anyone, she's just there if anyone wants the feminist perspective.
Ever notice how the companies that virtue signal the most also tend to be the shittiest places to work?
It perfectly encapsulates her entire mindset in a single sentence. Everything is viewed as oppressive to women, and uplifting to men. Even a fucking cape.
Fucking kek
And you faggots claimed Ed Boon became woke. Apologize now. Based Ed is OUR guy.
They make people better and worse. They make people happy and sad. They make people want to farm after playing Harvest Moon. They made me want to fap when I had two hot characters mirror match in Street Fighter. Yeah, they affect mind.
Cant agree more.
It's like boob physics, but the opposite and with capes.
so if I play GTA V it would make me want to kill people and steal cars and rob banks?
should have recorded his chimpout and put it on twitter and facebook to go viral. you could have been bathing in gofundme bux by now
>I base my entire live and personality on my politics and I constantly make threats on twitter about punching people so you BETTER BE AFRAID of me because I'm SUCH A HARDASS
Are the same people that are like
>My boss yelled at me and I cried.
fan fiction?
>I think she's often wrong and mostly doesn't matter
I guess I should learn to code.
Its amazing its like she couldn't think for a second that many heroes since time out of mind have had capes even fucking Hercules had a cape and the nigga was nude most of the time
Menial labor is different. After about 6 hours the quality of someone who gets paid to think goes completely down the shitter. Menial labor it doesn't matter unless it's heavily physical
Nigga we should be working 20 hours a week at most fuck this gay bullshit.

>into cs
>passed math just fine
>still confused why math is needed for cs
once you do get past the math classes you will do fine as long as what programming actually tests you on isn't a problem for you, gotta be a logical thinker
well I guess both are kind of related by proxy
No, but it could be a factor. I'm not going to outlaw big macs because "the make people fat".
It's not that he had a cape, but that the cape physics was geared to not show off bat booty.
my god..
What other companies are like this?
yeah I'm sure the person working on it was like "Under no circumstances should you ever see Batman's ass, that would be gay. I will make it so that his cape covers his ass at all times purely to spite the women and the gays."
Abso-fucking-lutely based and devpilled. Watch for incoming SEETHING replies from social justice faggots. The thought of these balding bearded leftists toiling in misery and abuse is D E L I C I O U S.

Posts like these always serve as a reminder that there is still hope left in this world. Yea Forums is not yet fully lost as long as these people continue to exist and not give a fuck.
Thank you for your service, user.
Fpbp
I play games to ignore shitty people, not to hear more about them.
Hopefully this is bait.
Like ass shots and tiddie jiggle, it's not done out of spite. It's a more marketable cool factor if the cape covers him more.
>fired
That's not how it works, their contracts expire when the game is finished.
Sony
one of the most based posts i've seen in a while
it's looks cool because they look like bat wings not because it covers his body
It's almost like cloth hangs down.
>It's almost like blah blah blah
*sigh* Let's unpack this
What is bait about it?
Based and redpilled.

CDPR are slave drivers too, but the thing is they pay their employees ridiculously well for where they're based. Constant working becomes a lot easier to swallow when you're making bank.

WB Jews and NetherRealm can suck my dick for censoring my game.
i just found out some faggot souls streamer who had the most ridiculous rules to his chat and nazi mods, who had rainbow hair and tried to be on a soapbox 24/7 about sjw shit.
the dude was grooming viewers and cheated on his girlfriend.
they are absolute snakes in the grass and cannot be trusted
Go back to ResetEra you're not fooling anyone, Zoe.

This shit should be way more common knowledge, humans use that tactic in order to divert attention from themselves.
There are people with no jobs and struggling to live, there are people working in deadly conditions like coal mines or off shore fishing. These fucking pencil pushers complain about working too much.
Activision Blizzard
Based.
I'll admit, this was pretty based
Why the fuck would any up and comer on contract not just walk out the fucking door as soon as they heard “80-120 hour work weeks” and “220 hour months”?
Unless you have a fucking child you’re caring for literally anything is better than that. I keep hearing excuses like “maybe they bought a house” or “first job don’t know any better” but that’s fucking bullshit.
You can fucking have my house if keeping it means I have to work 220 hours a month or 80 hours a week like a fucking cotton picker.
The ONLY people I’d understand who didn’t immediatley just throw caution to the wind and leave are people with kids. Anyone not tied down dumb enough to be treated like that honestly deserves it.
i think the issue is that they reinforce all this for progression and the thoughts are protected because of some retarded moral compass.
so the first person to not want it to be common knowledge are the ones exploiting it.
>snitching
faggot coworkers, but also this
How did this place become the only corner of the internet that is still sane.
