Hey, I have been tossing these two questions around for a while.
I know developers are on here. I want to know how games are uploaded/saved and worked on throughout teams. It is unclear to me right now whether remote work will have a tremendous impact on the speed of development. I also am curious about which parts of the development process would be the most taxing for remote developers. Like, is a game like Ghosts of Tsushima in a better spot because it's in polish stage or does that require more QA time, which in turn, requires more in person work? I don't know. I want to learn. I want to know what to expect. Most gamers expect no changes. Some journalists like Jason Schreier have indicated that there's likely going to be widespread delays. I just want some insight.
For gamers, are you okay with delays? Or are you upset internally? I don't need to know what you aspire to feel. I want to know what you actually feel. How does this impact your game purchases, console purchases, choices as to what you play etc etc. I'm curious about this too. Because I personally don't care. I want to catch up. I might - if this persists and things get delayed - pick up death stranding, sekiro and control. I might finish Yakuza Zero, Life is Strange 2, Batman Enemy Within, Kingdom Hearts 1 (or maybe not) and 2 and 3, final fantasy games when they hit game pass, etc.
