The execs do get it. They consider bugs and missing features a small price to pay for hitting release date, when hitting release date means people buy your game

  Because reputation matters nothing? Or because, like EA, they’ve realized that there’s a certain (large) subset of people that will just buy the games anyway, bugs and all, every single time, like they’re in some kind of abusive relationship.

    > Because reputation matters nothing Ask Blizzard. Ask EA. Ask CDPR. Ask Ubisoft. Ask any AAA developer. All have released absolute dogshit that sold based on their reputations alone. And that doesn't even account for the reports of everything from absurd quantities of mandatory crunch to rape and suicide. All have eagerly awaited sequels and new IP. All are more profitable than ever before. Some folks care, but a vast majority do not.
