Cyberpunk 2077 launched when it did because its devs wanted it "out the door" says CD Projekt Red CEO, but I wonder if he forgot about that reported mandatory crunch

    I believe him it was a lot more complex than just investors pushing him to get it out quickly. I don’t believe the team was part of that push. Either he doesn’t understand the developers or he is lying but I have a suspicion it’s gotta be at most a few team members who were burnt out and not a consensus. I cannot imagine the consensus was to crunch in order to get the game out faster - no way.

    “We ask a CEO questions and publish his answers” aka: journalism.

      "Republishing the lies of the powerful" also describes most history.
