It's okay for what it is....very quick platinum!

Awesome

Very nice!

Another one done.

strange I get this now, though: I still haven't completed episodes 2 & 3! but thank you!

I'll get it eventually, played every SC game and Soul Blade was one of my first fighters (alongside Killer Instinct). I'd love to see how this one is.

Especially after SCV, which whilst it was mechanically fine and everything the roster missing so many iconic characters was a shame.

Kinda surprised SC6 has a good single player. Feels like they're often an afterthought nowadays.

I'll wait and see how things pan out. SCV was garbage, and I'm wary of dodgy monetisation nonsense. I hope it's a return to form though, been too long.

I've watched several playthroughs and videos on YouTube, I already love the game so I can't wait to play it myself.

It's well written, has good humour, a good range of characters to date, I'm just very hyped haha.

They VOLUNTEER to get PAID OVERTIME and get to work for a company that generally has a stable set of staff (for the industry) producing games that go out to the public

and are generally well received. Do they know how many people would love to be in a position similar to the one they are in?

Lastly, I get that the games industry and more than 40 hours per week isn't for everyone, but if it isn't for you there are plenty of other options out there

(my 2nd lastly) After rereading I see that my text tone could be taken more seriously than I meant it to be read. Basically, my issue isn't that the employee

didn't like the working conditions. I just find it a bit nuts that this has become a big PR mess. people who don't like the conditions are free to leave, plus it isn't

like they are working in a horrible factory/retail/admin/call centre job where you might not have much in the way of options and might still need to work overtime without

the positives of being in an industry they are passionate about working on a product they can see in its final form. I don't even like Rockstar games, but I still hope

that they get over this PR mess, fire the employees who clearly don't want to work with them and get back onto making games

Nah sorry I don't feel bad for the multi-billion dollar company, they'll be fine and RDR2 will make them stupid money regardless of this.

I feel the people who have spoken out about bad conditions there should have their voices heard and concerns seriously addressed, working that much isn't healthy...

Did the workers have guns to their heads? No, but there are many ways to exert pressure to get people to do things, and by the sounds of some accounts they did just that.

Employers really do love that, "Well they're free to leave if they don't like it!" and "They knew what they were signing up for!"

But it's just not that easy sometimes depending on your circumstances, I know what it's like to essentially be trapped in a job that isn't healthy for you.

And ridiculous work weeks like that just shouldn't be expected or accepted as standard. Voice actors fought and won better pay and treatment...

Developers could fight for the same treatment if they unionised and I feel that they should.

Rather than fire anyone I would like to see them take steps to truly address concerns and improve the work environment.

Honestly though R* is a big company with a LOT of employees and for the most part it probably isn't all that bad.

But it clearly isn't great for a certain amount of them and their comments are worth hearing and not just being brushed aside.

I fully agree with you that the game industry has its flaws and could certainly be improved. Disagree unions are the solution but 100% with you that it would be great to

see big improvements in the gaming industry as a whole . You hit the nail on the head saying that for the most part it isn't bad. Rockstar are actually pretty good

in some respects compared to other big studios, who offer far less stability for those with families to consider. I appreciate your comment about cases where employees

don't have many options, but these are game dev's, artists, producers etc. they have options. Workign for Rockstar isn't for the people who are complaining, but I don't

think they are suited to the game industry in that case. As for my comment about 'firing' them. I should have said "don't renew their contract"

I'm not for calling the slackers into an office and firing them all against the terms of their contract, which it could have been read as

I read some comment which made an excllent point to all of this. Its not 100% accurate but something along the lines of:...

What about the people at rockstar who works 8 hours? Do they never feel stressed, challenged, frustrated etc? Do they never face hardships?

Leading up to the final weeks the passionate will crunch to get the extra hard work done asap. If you dont like working x amount something youre passionate about

If i wanted to drive a tricycle i would apply to kindergarden instead

If its only a few weeks where crunch time happens i dont see the problem. If its months at a time then its obviously not very healthy

Dammnit i shouldve put some of my comments in quotes. Hope its not too confusing

Actually ill just post the xact thing now that i found it

“Do you think that spacex employees always work 8 hours per day, have no stress at work, never have to push themselves to the limits and are always happy and

undisturbed? Do you think every single employee believes in all elon musks decisions and competences?”

“Now, does anyone seriously believe that what spacex does is easily achieable with no stress, no crunch, no conflicts and no sacrifices from anyone but elon himself?

Are you worried that spacex will fail because one or two engineers left unsatisfied?”

“What i want to say is that cd projekt made me feel like i launched a space rocket. If i wanted to drive a tricycle i would apply to kindergarden instead”

100% agree Ulven! In life you need to step up or step down. If you are lucky enough to be working on something you are passionate about, then you should be willing to put

the effort in to get it done and be proud of the input you had. What about all the people who work long hours to pay for their lifestyle, but they work in factories, call

centres or retail jobs? They still work long hours but get terrible pay, have less options and don't get to work on something they are passionate about and have be filled

with pride and satisfaction when it all comes together. What about Sweatshops? Where people work grueling hours for a pittance, yet they would rather do that than the

alternatives available? Once again, I get that not everyone wants to work hard at a passionate job to create the best product and meet deadlines... that's fine. there are

plenty of options out there that offer a comfy life, 9-5, every weekend off, every night sat at home, no overtime required...

Personally, I would rather work hard and be happy with the time I put into it and I am super glad that so many others agree, because it has given all the great games,

gadgets, tools, comfort etc we have today. there is a role for everyone in life and a job that suits you to a tee, just gotta find it

I don't believe that working hard = working overtime, nights, weekends. It's entirely possible to work hard in a 9-5, Mon-Fri job with no overtime.

Also, I would rather something take a bit longer to be developed so that the people involved got fair hours and fair compensation.

Last thing I want is to see a feature in a game and have to wonder if someone had to miss a birthday or hurt their mental health so that it could exist.

I love games but they're not worth that. Not in any industry really. Not to me at least.

Nicely done!

Clappy clap clap
