Lets also take into consideration that Dan Houser just recently went on record and said his staff were putting in 100+ hour work weeks to get Red Dead Redemption 2 finished. A game which btw has been in development for 6 years. And we all know that game is going to be riddled with micro transactions, sell like gangbusters and still review ridiculously high. I know I have my preordered already.

And this is far from the first instance weve heard of ludicrous crunch times in the gaming industry. We know games AAA are an expensive behemoth that continues to grow every year.

You need a lot of fucking money to make a game these days and at the end of the day its a business. Im seeing SC starting to take shape into a legitimately interesting and promising game that isnt just pie in the sky promises and deadlines that never come.

Hell I remember when the crowdfunding stretch goal was like Reach this milestone and well hire a prominent celebrity Like it was a big deal it just get one. and now they have a cast including the likes of Mark Hamill, Gary Oldman, Gillian Anderson, Andy Serkis and Henry Cavil...to name a few. But it totally makes sense to waste everyones time and money hiring all them, putting them in hours of mocap work while the developers are probably laughing, tipping their margarita glasses together on a beach in Ibiza right? Come off it.
