from the overall pool, 75% of respondents were senior managers

So... not developers, but businessmen.

I read this as senior managers at valve..

[-] Ganbat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 months ago

First line of the article seems fairly contradictory to that.

Wait now I'm even more confused

Game distribution platform Rokky has just released the results of a study it conducted with 306 senior managers of PC game developers (all from the US or UK)

There's nothing in this article that suggests that they polled more than just senior managers.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Maybe they tried to target only senior managers but were only 75% successful.

Also, the conflict of interest is apparent in the first 4 words of your quote, which explains why they picked such a weird study population.

Yeah, who do you think is best equipped to examine the sales and financials?

[-] athatet@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 months ago

From what I’ve seen and heard, probably not businessmen.

Irrelevant - the title and graphic says "developers".
