I wonder what happens in dev office now

Community General Discussion

Is it complete chaos where devs are forced to crunch until they can no longer stay awake

Or it’s like calm and nobody cares

Its just like any other working force office.

You hear the keyboard typing away, while some coworkers chatting with each other.

All while sipping some coffee or an energy drink.

There must have been a big fight between them and the big suits

If there was, somebody will be fired.

Ion threatened to leave for Dreamhaven, maybe? He could take the entire team with him and they be screwed.

They have been crunching for a while. Blizzard is quite the slavedriver overlord if gossip out of Silicon Valley is to be believed.

“The uploader has not made this video available in your country” Righto then.

Switch your vpn to the US my dude

I haven’t got my VPN on. And why do I need to have it on to watch an old fella drink coffee in a flood?

There’s crickets. They are all now working :muscle: at home :house_with_garden:

they just got huge win vs the corporate overlords that have been hovering over them in full force. my guess is that they’re partying.

No one likes a postponed launch but SL will still be released in the same quarter (Q4). So the money guys while probably not thrilled, on the flip side they are probably not throwing temper tantrums either.

Does any major video game developer actually not crunch?

17

Oh, you said major.

If they’re anything like the devs i knew in college, they are extremely relaxed doing minimal work and treating any non developer like they couldnt possibly fathom the depths of the dev’s genius minds.

But yeah thats just a guess, who knows.

They’re all working from home, right? That’s one of the stipulated reasons John Hight gave for the delay in release. So nothing will happen in the dev office because nobody is there!
