Nah, that wouldn't. The constant crunch time and menaces from the directors would, or maybe even getting fired after the product you shipped after the above mentioned 3-year-span of abuses to fill the pockets of sociopath shitbags like Kotick.

You realise a lot of those jobs are the bread and butter of people - but also that they become breeding grounds for the next quality indie company / publisher / solodev etc.

I'm not saying they have to be there for that to happen, but they do create environments where people wanna do things differently / right / their own way (and so on) - but regardless, coding, 3D modelling, meshing, concept art, writing etc etc etc are all much more common as required jobs now.

The AAA churn is your factory labour - anybody with the skills can technically get a job (if theyre up for that factory environment or dont have a choice) and plenty of people need them (and im not knocking them - getting work in your skillset can be hard, so good on them for feeding themselves).
The little indie company is your small shop.
The solodev is the person trying to sell you their self produced album as they busk.

And they probably had 400-800 employees, so between 8% and 16%.... Though without exact numbers...

But if you look at the bad number of CEO's and upper management in the larger game companies (Blizzard/Activision, Ubisoft, EA) I'm sure the number of 'trash' and get overpaid is probably over 80%, pushing undesirable crap like NFT's and Loot Boxes...

I've seen this mentality everywhere in the corporate/governing class. These idiots think you "need a certain number of complaints" for them to act on something, which is ridiculous. Imagine I told you 70 rapes happened in the company and there's 5000-6000 employees so it's "not much". One case is too much and one single true complaint is as valid as 60..

I want to start a gaming company, and want to know about that How do I put games on GOG?. I am running some sites as well but now I decided to shift toward games. just want your guidance.

you have to make the game first. if you require money for publishing, then you need those investors. if you have the game i suppose you contact the community managers that are listed at the top of the forum and send them a text.

Rapes? I must say that's a bit different. I haven't looked at the article(s) in relation to this, so I'd assumed 'trash employee' could have just meant they weren't good at their job. And sexual misconduct could be anywhere from whistling at someone to feeling them up, to telling dirty jokes and people were offended.

it's not different. the example is an act that's illegal.

At a place I previously worked, I once had to sit though a 30 minutes car ride listening to my boss and a senior member of my team tell bad mother sex jokes (to clarify, we were all straight guys in the car). At another place, I patiently listened while my boss gave me a detailed analysis of how many babies an adult male could simultaneously take on in a fight to the death (I can't say I lost sleep over it, but I found the analysis just a tad disturbing). True stories.

While I think none those guys should have been put in a position of authority (not just based on those incidents, I got to know them and none of them were good bosses), I think we are also needlessly crucifying people with PC culture. Some people are predatory, but a lot are just incredibly immature.

I mean, I could have gone to the president/VP and recited exerts from that car conversation I overhead or the baby mass combat analysis, but I think part of emotional maturity is to not needlessly escalate minor situations, especially when its a one-off. When it isn't, its always better to have an honest conversation with the concerned party first. If that gets you fired, you probably didn't want to work there anyways in the long term.

I'm surprised this isn't a game yet. :P
