Is internet gaming community killing Dev morale?

And terrible parenting doesn't help either. Teenagers and people in their 20's expect perfection and their every demand to be met. Look at the Jimmy kimmel videos of children/teens acting all entitled when their parents eat their candy. I never even considered speaking to my parents like that.

And just because developers get paid well, doesn't mean they deserve the abuse. It's like being a lecturer and getting paid well and because of that your students can call your an ugly piece of garbage. Doesn't (or shouldn't) work like that as far as I'm concerned.

Lastly, when you are a part of a project, there is only so much you can do. Imagine having a group presentation with some classmates, you work your ass off and do well and one person brings the team down and then the teacher shits on the entire team and you get a terrible score. The person who makes the artwork in Assassins' Creed X is not at fault for the glitches of the game. Same for the voice actors. But what do they hear about the game they helped make? "Assassin's Creed x was shit".

im not a catholic, so yes, i freaking expect you to work perfectly. if you cant deliver, change the job. thats called workethic...

Well, good for you, generic user. But let me ask you something. Do you work perfectly? You do realize what the work "perfect" means, right? When you were in school or uni, did you only get perfect scores? At work, have you never made a mistake? Do you think making a mistake justifies being verbally abused by customers or your boss? I seriously doubt that. And please let's not pretend that changing your job is that easy for everyone. That's not called called work ethic, but unrealistic expectations. And like I said, you may deliver, but you are only a part of the team. Someone else may not deliver and then the project gets criticised as a whole.

i atleast try to work perfectly.  sure i made mistakes, but when i make a mistake, i work till its undone.   and i dont care who "abuses" me if i make a mistake, im the one that is criticising myself the hardest if i fuck something up.  

 

its not one that doesnt deliver at the most big flopgames. WD is just bad,poorly written, poorly programmed, poorly tested, the visuals are uninspired and the score is just a joke, every monkey with a tape recorder could do better.

maybe some codemonkeys did a good job, but i think they know why everybody is bashing the game, and if they feel bad about beeing bashed for others fails,they should stop working for the developer.
