It is still crazy to me that a Western consultation studio decided to go and try to tell them how to do their jobs and then CHARGE them for it.

They're just trying to make money. I'm sure the developers weren't offended some consultation firm reached out to them. There are dozens of them in the market for all sorts of purposes working with game studios all the time. Even if you hire any consultation firm they'll just produce a report that you can throw in the trash if you want. You aren't forced to change or implement anything.

Some people act like SBI is some insidious force that can tell the entirety of the media to slander someone, Illuminati-style, and sink their careers if they aren't hired.

Except we have footage on one of the co-founders of one these companies bragging about how she has been using scare tactics for years to force executives.

Time-stamp 25:20

"If you are a creator working on AAA, which I did for many many years.. cook this stuff up to your higher ups, and if they don't see the value on what you're asking for, when you ask for consultance.. go have a coffee with your marketing team and just terrify them with the posibility of what's gonna happen if they don't give you what you want"

Hopefully with the latest events, executives will finally realize that they cannot only kick this people out the door, but they will be much better off by doing so.
