I personally fail to see how Bethesda is responsible for anything.

Those people were probably afraid they'd have no job, they got offered one elsewhere, and took it.

It's quite cut throat, yes, but I don't see this particular one as their fault the game failed. Those people could have refused the positions.

And nothing wrong with overtime. Mandatory overtime is kinda questionable though.

Lol, I thought it sounded a bit paranoid. They’ll of course have to prove all of that in court, and Bethesda had good lawyers before they joined Microsoft. Now they’ll probably be represented by Microsoft’s lawyers, which you can bet are probably the best money can buy.

On this “crunch scandal”, it’s not really about the fact that they are making the employees work crunch, but rather that they said earlier that they wouldn’t institute crunch anymore. Now they’ve got this very ambitious Cyberpunk game and it’s just about ready to release. It’s still not ready, so, out comes the crunch. Now they’ve got different journalists whining about it and raising a stink. I’m not a “fan” of CD Projekt Red, and it is weird to me that they felt the need to claim they wouldn’t do crunch anymore when they should’ve known that sometimes the industry practically demands it. That said, I don’t really hold this crunch thing against them. Supposedly it’s added Saturday to the work week and the employees are getting paid full overtime pay. I figure if the devs don’t want to work overtime, they should probably get out of the game industry.

I have a friend that'd love it. She BEGS for overtime. Just for the pay.

And yeah, the industry really does have crunch time. Many things do, but especially the video game industry. Publishers and particularly investors want their ROI. Delaying launches bites into that.

Wow Shadowlands got delayed. Activision is NOT pleased. Games in crunch, people are leaving, it's a big huge drama. The industry is vicious.

Google Mail? I've never used it. Unless it resides on my drives unbeknownst to me due to being installed by another program I say no, it's not a YouTube requirement. Better wait for a second/third opinion before committing to anything drastic.

Hahahaha!

Thing about my eye appointments, is I usually come out with dilated eyes and can't see crap for HOURS.

According to an acquaintance of mine they don't really do that here. I'm still skeptical.

Said person said Mikael should have given them a heads up that the appointment might take a little longer because of my... erm... special conditions.

God I hope they speak English.

They don't make you read an eye chart with , or on it, do they? Because I ain't gonna be able to read that.

I always insist that they don't administer those test-droplets until after sight evaluation. Two times I forgot to do so resulted in faulty prescriptions and eyeglasses I couldn't use.
