IGN can exclusively reveal the details from IATSE’s 2023 Gameworkers.org Rates and Conditions Survey, where the organization asked hundreds of video game developers about their pay, benefits, and working conditions.
“Oh? You hate your job? There’s a support group for that, it’s called ‘Everybody’, we meet at the bar!”
Video games devs have it much worse than other developers though
Cant blame game devs at all. Their working conditions take the absolute piss. It’s sweatshop conditions compared to other types of tech work.
A 100%, some of the things that you hear from the industry are crazy. If you offered me twice my current salary to be a developer in the AAA videogame industry, I wouldn’t take it.
Man, the Drew Carey show was great.
I heard it from George Carlin.
