Cory Barlog increase in stress and depression levels? What is going on behind the scenes that we don't see?

[waterdrinkinggamer]

Cory is acting very odd on twitter again. What is going on? Personally I hope it is not related to his job as HE DESERVES time off after that masterpiece God of War. Hell I would retire after that banger if I were home. So my question is what do you think is going on? Let's all keep him in our prayers, please

I was just having a moment myself, kind of a 21 year-old "midlife crisis" at the realization I may be doing minimum wage work for life, so I hope he's doing fine. I don't know what his coping mechanisms are but I'm still trying to find the best method myself.

I'm not sure there's literally anyone on this forum that could answer this question and I don't think it's good form to speculate about the quality of a developer's mental health based on two tweets.

Is sony crunching gow2 for ps5 launch window?

Don't depress, your game is one of the best in our life time, relax.

This is a really weird thread. Why even put these tweets on a pedestal like that?

We don't know what's going on. Could be personal. Speculation is just silly and rumormongering without any kind of base.

I mean, Im quite confident in saying the GoW team crunched like hell and they handwaved it by calling it "passion". Well, what happens when you are even more "passionate" with your next project?

I don't feel like OK speculating with someone else health, so I will only say I hope he's getting some rest and take care of himself

 

[gitrektali]

Holy shit, didn't expect someone to actually make a thread on this...

But, okay, I hope all's well at his end and that he can churn out another killer game down the line at Sony.

Everyone's wishing the best for Cory, but that's a lot of assumptions from a couple Tweets and it's not really appropriate to speculate/gossip about someone's health on such basis.
