Yeah…that changes the numbers. More like 10-20 years to do just about anything.

Somehow the urgency just drains right out of this for me.

Didn’t they make 10-100s millions of dollars on this? Pays a lot of salaries while you make new paid content.

EDIT : They made at least 12 million sales on steam, and had 7 million players on Xbox, which may be Gamepass, but still makes them money.

So at $30, that’s 66million from steam minus 30% for steams cut, so they banked 44 million at least.

They can pay 440 devs 100k for at least a year. I assume their team is a bit smaller than that, so they likely have years of runway. Linkedin lists size as between 50-200 in japan, so that likely means they are making $50-70k, and there are likely more than 100 devs. I would guess they have a 4 year runway from Steam sales, and maybe 1-2 year from Gamepass.

They got some time to think.

Yeah, I was going to say it’s bad timing, but it’s always bad timing here.

He worked for the gaming site/podcast “Giantbomb” years ago. Pretty sure the image macro is pulled from one of their podcast videos.

But why?

Basically can say that about the movie too.

“Because we want to” seems to be the reason, and that good enough.

Kind of disappointing honestly. I never played chef in the original, and this video just looked dull.

I’ll still go in on it day one just for the other content, but I was hoping for more.

Nah, that was justification. If only “the service workers” would “do their jobs,” then it wouldn’t have to happen.

“If you just didn’t make me mad, I wouldn’t have to X” is abuser 101.

Yup, there’s the justification right on time. They had to abandon basic civility and professionalism to “hit their targets.”

Thats why they can be abusive, ignore the company process for tickets, threaten their coworkers, whatever they want. They need to “stay on parnet track” and “hit their targets.” No one else has any stressors or requirements at their workplace, just the lawyers.

Nevermind that the “support staff” make sure lots of people, processes and services work, and may individually be more important to “hitting targets” for the company as a whole than any individual lawyer.

How about the lawyers “do their job” by interacting with their coworkers professionally? By submitting tickets correctly and in a timely manner?

Abusing your coworkers is never justified.

Yeah, because being a raging asshole to your coworkers is justified as long as it helps you “stay on partner track.”

Abusive people always find justifications for it.
