If you already planned to purchase the game, I am wondering with the recent and past stories from Eurogamer and Kotaku about crunch at Rockstar and treatment of workers there, if you are still planning to purchase the game. I'm curious about the net effect of whether people believe or care about the conditions described in the articles (from reputable journalism sources) to the degree where they will no longer buy the game as planned.
If you are bothered by the working conditions but still plan to buy the game, I'm wondering if your experience playing the game will be negatively impacted (by cognitive dissonance or otherwise) by the knowledge of these working conditions.
Nah! I am picking it up in Dec. That issue is blown out anyway, any office worker knows that there is always crunch time at the end of a project or near the deadline. Its not like they are being kept under questionable conditions or anything.
Already got the game and am loving it. It's obvious that games like this will require some overtime which I don't think is unfair as long as the employees aren't treated like slaves.
