This is almost like video games being explained by a video game. How meta!

I once worked at a place where I was told we were expected to have a "passion" for the job. That meant overtime was expected. It was the only time I got fired and didn't care.

Going off that intro... ooooh, nasty!

I would say that this is software at 75% of shops. It isnt even passion but general management incompetence. If you tell someone that it takes 8 weeks to build a house, you give them 4 weeks, dont complain that it doesn't have walls. If focus killes this project, it would have lost its investment. But really, we need to see unions and we need to have people put passion aside for money. This is a buisness and game developers need to treat it like one. If that means their project gets killed, that is a much better tradeoff than a breakdown. For more examples see teachers.

Jim, dont throw d6s .. d4s is where its at. The initial blow wont hurt as much but as they are being dragged along the cobblestones hitting one of those would REALLY smart.
