Been seeing these blazing hot takes trying to justify crunch, by people whose last interaction with Nintendo products appears to be in the snes era.

realistic graphics are overrated, imo

Reading that article about Naughty Dog, it's pretty clear that they are coasting on institutional inertia, Amy Hennig got pushed out because she didn't want to crunch, and they are only able to ship products with their completely dysfunctional system because Sony keeps infusing them with capital and talking them up as a prestige brand

Reminds me of earlier this week when someone from ND was talking about how the animations in TLOU2 are so amazing and they have the best animation team in the world. I wonder how the best animation team in the world feels about their work being taken out of the game proper so it can be used to nickel-and-dime paying customers. Hell of a way to show how much you respect your enployees’ efforts.

It's true, playing the PS4/Xbox/PC versions leaves you with maybe half a second in the practice room and if you don't hit the wait button in that window it's straight on to the next level

I finished Ori, its a C+ game. Really pretty in some places with the underground area being suitably ultra-gross, but uh, the amount of baffling design decisions and just aggressively bad bugs means it really doesn't matter.

The bugs at least should be fixed whenever it gets a switch port, so check it out then yall!

From a few pages back but I'm curious what you (or anyone else who has played it) considers "baffling design decisions". I'm only a couple hours in but enjoying it so far, the platforming feels really good.

I definitely have noticed the bugs. Mine have been mostly sound related.

Nintendo said that they delayed the new Animal Crossing game because they didn't want to crunch the developers.

The hours they work now are repeatedly stated to be a lot less than what they were in the late 90's and throughout most of the aughts. But the overwork they do still most likely put in could very well be what we'd consider crunch to be anyways. Just that they don't see it as crunch because "It's a lot better now than it used to be".

Yeah it's mostly anecdotal but Nintendo seems to have a better reputation for treating its employees better compared to, say, Konami.

Famously the CEO took a salary cut rather than lay employees off during a downturn, which should be basic decency but nevertheless
