And people wonder why a lot of the highly skilled Software Engineers want nothing to do with the gaming industry. Work overtime AND not make as much? No thanks. I myself was looking into becoming a game developer, but when I found that I would have to make a 50% sacrifice of my salary, as well as trying to meet ridiculous deadlines, I declined.
If you want to see true innovation come back to the gaming industry, execs need to pay for the skill, not lock software developers in contract and expect to run a coding sweatshop.
