SonicMage117 Posted October 15, 2018 Posted October 15, 2018 Oh my... Oh dear. Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother? What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest. Begone! Lest I draw my nail...
Malcador Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Yep. You work for Rockstar? Nah, I wish. Even with that crunch it'd still leave my soul unscarred unlike my current job. Just not too trustful of some high up saying working long hours is purely 'voluntary'. 4 Why has elegance found so little following?

But you sure as hell look dedicated. According to some study in Sweden, which I read sone time ago, when people were doing same tasks at their job for 6 and for 8 hours for the same monetary reward, the results were almost identical. With the people working for 6 hours being more happy/satisfied, because they could spent more time with friends/families. Which means, whether you sit on your ass at work for 6 or 8 hours does not matter, because the longer you work the worse it is to hold your concentration at high enough level for your work tasks being done properly.

Chilloutman Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 If you are like, you just pretend that something takes you 8 hours even if I can do it in 4 because they would just give me twice amount of work next time, yeah I know its not something to be proud about but to be honest, I am not doctor or scientist changing world for better so who cares I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"

I could have done my previous job in 4 hours. Still had to sit there for 8 hours a day, doing nothing. Really rewarding. Even going down to 7 hours a day or 4x 10 hours would be more beneficial for the workers. With travel those 8 hours days are easily 10 hour days or even more in some cases. 2 Hate the living, love the dead.
Lexx Posted October 16, 2018 Posted October 16, 2018 Couple years back I had a secretary job. 6 hours a day... There was nothing to do, just sitting around, waiting for the telephone to ring about twice per day. It was hell on earth. Was super happy when I got away from there. Such a huge waste of time...

Keyrock Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) I just noticed The Council released Episode 4 (of 5) a couple weeks ago. Once they put the final episode out I'm all over it. I've been itching to play this game ever since the first episode came out, but I always wait for all episodes to come out before getting an episodic game. This game looks like my jam. It's like a Telltale game, but with actual gameplay and RPG-lite mechanics.

SonicMage117 Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 They're just stating that developers acknowledge how butthurt people get over politics this era. Can't disagree with them there, with our President Trump being in office makes every Republican who supports him a target, put that into a video game and people will be calling you a right wing extremist because they're too in denial to accept that other people could possibly disagree with them.

Guess people really identify with their corporation Some employees. You also have this guy. Stockholm syndrome among workers is fairly common, I've found, and is one of the chief enablers of abuses and illegal workplace practices and conditions. Personally, I try to compensate for these Stakhanovites by being a total drain on company resources.

Lexx Posted October 18, 2018 Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) I'm confused as to how they can have nothing to work on in game dev. In my experience, there is always something to work on. Other than that, I'm very much against doing overtime for the sake of it. Hell, I'm even against overtime in general if it isn't really justified. Also I absolutely loath the "but the bosses do 100 hour weeks as well!"-argument, because the generic company grunts salary and amenities probably don't compare at all to that of the bosses.
