"That's unacceptable": Red Dead Redemption dev says crunch at Rockstar was to "put on the show" for executives, not to fix bugs

I’ve read something like that in Cory Doctorow’s Reverse Centaure : when a metric becomes a goal, it’s not good rule anymore. (There’s a name for this rule but I don’t remember it)

I say this all the time, but a lot of problems are directly downstream from assholes who don’t do work making decisions. ✨ Capitalism! ✨
