Ziets apparently couldn't resist after playing Annie's smash hit >>PANIC at Multiverse High!<<

How do they afford to hire and pay these people when they haven’t produced anything, it’s been awhile now.
Maybe they pay them with exposure and valuable experience? Would explain the lack of any visible product.
They needed a narrative lead to provide a narrative for the project to really fully start.

People used back in ancient 2000s, when America was still 2/3+ White, and work ethics, vision and deadlines still existed, to start - develop - finish entire game. 3 years was average production cycle for serious AAA games. Now bunch of indies can't cobble together teaser trailer after 3+ years. Creativity, inovation and productivity plummeted like comet

SAME company. SAME amount of time. Ho boy, indeed
No. of developers rose in 100s of %, number of time tripled, Elder Scrolls 5 and 6 will have 15 year gap, techonology advanced tremendously. Productivity everywhere crushed. Bethesda is just an example. Digimancy exists for almost 4 fiscal years. Questions like: what do you eat and how you pay electricity if you work full time on something for 4 years and you have 0 products produced, those questions are legitimate

Annie Mitsoda FYI this means you have to start posting on the Codex again
She turned her back on Notch, Max Landis, and Chris Avellone, and easily turned her back on us, especially after she revealed a while back that she only pretended to hate Bioware-writing to fit in with the cool kids at Obsidian and the 'dex back in the mid-late 00s.

Plus it's inevitable she'd get an invasive question from me regarding my suspicions about her ex-husband's behavior I imagine she doesn't want to talk about. :M

I mean I’m not trying to shit on anyone just genuinely curious. Game devs and staff aren’t exactly cheap. Perhaps there was some sort of investment which would make sense. Hopefully they can produce something before the money dries up?
