duh

and i didnt speak on their promotion heirarchy or retention

companies have very poor retention

the people who actualy make the game dont mean shit and their opinions of what is good does not matter

that doesnt conflict with anything i said really

"mostly the devs care about the game and the pub, mgmt, and investors f††† them every step of the way"

if the devs opinion on design not taken into consideration thats design by committee IE getting throttled by mgmt/investors/pub

which part do you disagree with

the devs dont care

okay how do you know

and the ones that do are fired

your statement is as blanket as mine

not realy like i said my gripe with EA is personal maybe Ubi is differnt but i doubt it

ill admit i cant speak specifically to EA

i feel it is this way most places

Warframes devs actualy give a shit as they are the company

Ubi and EA run badly because the people who care about money dont care about the product for it's own sake

It's funny when we think this happened in the past, with Atari; management stepped in, fired all game designers; then they got together and made Activision.

I'd imagine if the publishers are any good they gonna cate at least somewhat about creative freedom. EA actually published some really good games i the past where I doubt they forced the developers from changing much. A lot more games are also realised independently now

and are unwilling to risk to gain a new experiance

they only polish it more. and resell the concepts

"We make games, we don't need no stinking game designers, let's just replace them with cheap interns."

@DanielKO i agree

Their mistake was, they should have bought Activision, then fired the game devs again.

Activision going from saint to satan in the space of a few decades

look what EA did to westwood

True that agen

Because that's what EA does. Keep buying new companies, just to fuck all developers in them.

almost all who come into power become tyrannical

whens my turn 😄

GabeN should just hire all the disgruntled, fired EA devs.

I'm over Valve

I do aprove of the hair choices in FarCry 5

Then let them actually make a game.

lol

all the "white" options would make any sjw screem nazi

"Here's a budget. If you make a game out of it, I'll let you guys put a 'fuck EA' loading screen."

HA

Valve doesnt hand out budgets

that would be an awsome project

you can send them a vert
