Josh Sawyer tweets: “I believe burnout has already replaced crunch as the primary hazard of the game industry. Managers are setting teams up to fail and devs are getting ground up as collateral damage. I have suffered from burnout myself. It’s no joke. Thanks to @thewritegame and @Eeoor for the talk.
As with crunch, it’s likely that managers may acknowledge creating the circumstances leading to burnout but will not take the necessary steps to change them. It’s important that devs continue to talk to and support each other and to apply pressure until change is effected.”
