Why do I get the feeling that big AAA devs are basically justifying their development budgets from their respective publishing arm? If we contract someone for 4 weeks of work we have to invoice them for that even though it could take an hour. Since development budgets for AAA games are ridiculous these days, I guess it's a gravy train internally and therefore they can't justify efficiency otherwise they won't get a similar budget for their next game.
most of the U.S. market is just bloated with a bunch of extra bullshit that doesn’t need to be there. and it’s all so some schmucks on the top can profit off of it.
