'Sunk cost fallacy' can apply to virtually all human endeavors. For example, have you ever kept playing a game you hated or weren't having fun with because you were near the end or a major mile-stone?

Wiz posted:Clearly, CIG are just doing new things that nobody has ever done before, like crunching for a whole year. I had a job move from 5 10 hours to 5 12s. Then 6 12s. Then optional 7 day straight work weeks. When people complained at a company meeting about the possibility of mandatory 7 day weeks the lead managers response was "OH YEAH?!? Well at our (other state) facility they've been working like that for NINE MONTHS. You guys can't handle two months of 72 hour weeks?!? (employee name) has been working 84 hour weeks every week!"

aleksendr posted:Also take into account Japanese corporate culture in the equation. 60h week is nearly the norm for them and business owners are expected to be married with the business and spend nearly all avaiable time there. Japanese wife and girfriends dont bitch when you have to work late or have to come in on a saturday. Japan is so bad right now, a common problem that crops up is when the husband retires and he's actually around the house for a change. Because the husband and wife now have to get to know each other after years of effectively being strangers. They find themselves wanting a divorce. Added bonus: productivity isn't any higher than a normal environment, and a whole lot of people just sleep at their desk to fill time.

This latest update from TheAgent is surely good news for star citizen and proof they are on the right track I myself just sold my car and all worldly possessions so I could help fund the dream further Once the game releases I will simply live IN the game world , my mortal body will no longer be required * * there is at least one backer who believes this , and possibly one employee of CIG

Spatial posted:The reply: What would kill the project is if a company with decades of industry experience and is among the most successful game companies in existence looked at the game and said it was loving impossible to do with current technology. But this startup that's spent 4 1/2 years just building up a company and 6 months making a game can do it!

Sappo569 posted:This latest update from TheAgent is surely good news for star citizen and proof they are on the right track it really is good news if you are still a backer, since it will be an indeterminate amount of progress toward the dream that technically isn't zero. buying ships when there is no indication of anything at all requires pure faith, but buying ships when something comes out is much much easier to justify to yourself.

A Neurotic Corncob posted:so basically a "planet module" is being made with no real connection to crusader, and CIG just plans to continue putting out incomplete modules while praying that the backers imagination will continue to fill in the gaps. If you don't believe any of it; believe one thing: the part about the planet being #justanothermodule because I have written extensively about this in the past, even sparred with one of their devs Ben Parry over this very notion of it being a level, rather than a seamless transition like what they have shown in their tech demos. Also, as to the AI company mentioned, that would be Behavior Interactive. I wrote about this specifically a few days ago.
