there, they're, THEIR

I wasn't sure about this title, but those sample tracks just sold me on this game. Impressive! I love how, for several years now, videogame scores have been treated with the same kind of effort, thought and respect as scores for big hollywood productions.

Bring it, Deriviere!

@Ridgeblader @joshhi Sorry my friend, you've just completely missed my point. If heaters don't work, you put up filament heating so your employees don't have to work at near freezing point... unless of course there's no money. (THQ? Koch Media?)

If your staff spends 100% of their working day sitting infront of a computer, you don't make them sit on camping chairs... unless of course there's no money . (THQ? Koch Media?)

If you think game developer employees don't care about what chair they sit in, you either have never experienced serious crunch time or you have no idea what crunch means in the industry.

You're a bit thick, no? :-D

@ewjiml My pills, hahaha :-) That's just so original!

@hadlee73 I call it less ignorant, you call it sensationalist.

While you fools are all praising these guys for building a quality product on a budget 90% below any other AAA game, you totally disregard these awful working conditions. Are you all just totally ignorant? Of course the budget will be low if you don't even provide your employees with decent enough chairs to sit on. Imagine what these poor souls got paid. This Rubin guy should be ashamed, and so should the former THQ and also Koch Media. While they rake in the money (which they will, with a budget that low) these passionate guys will be sitting on their folding chairs again, in a studio below zero, working on the next Metro, and you guys will keep labeling this dire situation as a good example.

@hadlee73 I'm pretty sure if any of the Western studios decide to totally disregard humane working conditions, they could also easily work with a budgat as low as this team did.

Think about how small a salary these guys must have gotten for the budget to be that low.

And then think of the crazy people in the West, who have the nerve to demand comfy chairs and studios 20 degrees above zero.

@plm3d_basic Sure, just like people in Chinese or Cambodian sweatshops are still able to make nice shirts and Chuck Taylors.

You can't just disregard horrible working conditions.

@lunar1122 What exactly is it that makes him dumb in your eyes? Thinking that taking a train to Moscow instead of a plane to the US to buy a PC would be more cost efficient?

Did it ever cross your mind that you might be the dumb one here, lunar1122?

@jhonMalcovich Malcovich has a point though
