"One of the most frustrating things about the games industry is that teams of people come together to make a game, and maybe they struggle and make mistakes along the way, but by the end of the game they’ve learned a lot — and this is usually when they are disbanded," said Schafer. "Instead of being allowed to apply all those lessons to a better, more efficiently produced second game, they are scattered to the winds and all that wisdom is lost."
Is Tim wrong here? Is the videogame industry better, and stronger because teams are assembled and disbanded on the fly, providing no job security but allowing for maximum career mobility, or does he have a point?
I am posting this in the political section, because employment was discussed in the past here, and it was argued that economically this is a good thing.
