    Eh, there are enough news reports of record profit game sales followed by massive layoffs to say otherwise. The poor allocation of resources you’re talking about? Bonuses to upper management :/

    I will 100% pay full price for an indie-published game, or for a game published by an honorable corp. If that company is fucking over its development team, layed off the development team after a successful launch, or is doing some unscrupulous shit, the black flag is raised.

    If further projects by that big corp aren’t funded, oh no! That’s the point. Starve the bastards enough that they change their ways or give up the game.

      That doesn’t dispute what I said in the slightest.

          Yes, those are not conflicting pieces of information. The poor allocation of resources is not having a Project B ready for people to move to when their job on Project A is done.
