there seems to be a lot of complaining from some guy at kotaku on how hard it is to have to travel for work, apparently they do that, shoot guns for research and play games and having deadlines on playing games.

Which made people make fun of them since it is obvious that if you think playing games is not fun you probably should not be writing about them. Plus work travel in Europe, shoot guns and play video games while being payed for it does not seem like a bad gig but this guy wants sympathy on how hard his life is.

I actually like the idea of shooting guns to gather performance data for each weapon.

The guy is probably just a dick, but even for those who can't surpass employeedom, it's still a lot like slavery.
