What’s interesting to me is of course how cheaply Bioshock got made compared to today’s blockbuster hits. Somewhere, we took the wrong turn in regards to modern game development, truly.
Too many managers to pay and as a result too high personel costs, I would assume. :<
We overpay executives, who overpay consultants, who tell companies to churn out cash grabs that test well.
This doesn’t pain me. I have enough indie games to occupy my time.
The cancellation of Deus Ex Mankind Divided Part 2, pained me quite a lot.
But I’m sure the executives that got a fat bonus were happier than I was upset. (insert meme happiness comic)
Whoh there mate, you are forgetting shareholders. They are the ones you truly need to please as they are the ones that can actually fire a board.
