Modern AAA western dev is one big jobs program for women, minorities, and leftist activists. The purpose of these dev studios is to generate salaries and benefits for useless eaters and political agents who contribute no value to the product or the company. The longer a game takes to develop, the better it is for the employees. They have no incentive to make good games in a timely manner because the "consequences horizon" is almost a fucking decade.
And because HR departments control who gets hired and fired, it's a jobs program only for leftists and their pets.
Anything that can be done by one programmer in one week can be done by two programmers in two weeks, three programmers in four weeks, four programmers in eight etc.
There’s no way. Where is all that money going? It’s not even skimming of the top anymore they must be cutting off and taking the majority of it.
