I agree that the 80 h week of work is insane but I don't understand this emphasis in 31 year old white man, childless men. How being a white, having 31 years and don't having children magically makes you immature and have anything to do with games stagnation? So, if you have children and a bitch to pester you, you are going to become more mature? He talk about two different things that have nothing to do with each other. Worker exploitation from EA/Activision and etc. and maturity from the developers. What he mean by mature? Being mature is to please a bitch and having the responsability of paying for children that you aren't going to see for most part of the day anyway, even with 40 hs per week? If you are a dumb asshole, when you get old, you are going to be a old dumb asshole. Age has nothing to do with maturity and maturity has everything to do with the capacity of someone to think. Develpers aren't immature because they don't have children or a woman or because they work too hard but because they are making games that don't need to engage their intelect and force them to think. One thing is you making Torment, Fallout, Thief, System Shock, you learn alot because you need to learn , another thing is you making CoD, Angry Bird and other shovelware all your life. You only learn and become more wise when you need to learn.
