I think it was before that. When Polygon "exposed" them "overworking" developers.
Nothing has been quite the same since. All the bullshit collaborations just seem like them trying to cash out before the employees force them down the woke path and kill the game.
I was there at the time, that article was based on absolutely nothing to do with Epic other than talking to subcontractors. While I was there, work hours were no problem at all, and no one in the company took the article seriously.
The setup for the deathblow was happening during that period, though. I joined back in late 2018, right as the company was recruiting massively in order to spend the Fortnite money on something other than bonuses. They didn't do anything to prevent the cultural destruction caused by mass immigration, so when Floyd happened, people hadn't been inculturated not to involve their politics in the business.
