This would be my gut reaction as well. I’ve met some game developers privately and got to know them better and after that a career in game development was out of the question for me. It’s not even the fault of the game studios, many of which are being lead by idealistic game devs themselves. It’s the publishers who only offer contracts that are so tightly knit, that many game studios go bankrupt after release of they can’t get another contract quick enough. The whole industry is rotten and no amount of management will save that on the lowest level of the food chain.
