    725 million actually. I think it is almost double the next expensive game.

    They are trying to do something on a never-before scale, but the company seems to have been run like complete shit.

    They better get great overtime pay or be able to take like 2 weeks extra paid holiday after this bullshit, but I would guess not.

      from the article it sounds like they aren’t getting overtime pay, or any pay at all for the extra work days. instead they’ve been promised some extra paid days off in the future, but only after their current project ends, and only if they don’t get laid off by that point.

      Spoiler: that “something” is walk away with a cool billion and bin the whole thing.
