What's the point? It's not like the people who still put money into this scam are going to be turned off by yet more undelivered promises.
Unfortunately par for the course in game development.
Yeah but leave it to journos to never miss a chance to shit on star citizen for clicks. I seriously doubt they actually care.
Half the time I make the mistake of giving them a click it's lazy unresearched shit... CIG has a lot of problems for sure, but "the media" loves to profit off of SC bashing.
Sounds like a great two weeks to spend talking to recruiters and interviewing.
Who okayed this article? It's just a signal boost of the Inside Gaming article with nothing new added besides anti-Cloud Imperium fluff. Also, they actually misrepresent the lieu time given, conflating the Citizencon lieu time for the Squadron 42 lieu time that has a restriction on when it can be used. As far as the original article goes, there aren't any know restrictions on the former.
Seems fine. They're providing food, overtime pay, and pto for use at a future date. That's a better deal than a lot of employees get. Obviously this isn't how I think we should do work/living, but that's about as fair of a compromise as you're going to see in this particular industry at this time unless you're extremely lucky.
