一位自稱UBI前員工的人說的一些內幕，真偽不明，還蠻八卦的。

I was in a meeting personally with Yves Guillemot, who said that he doesn’t
care about PC gamers because, and i quote “90% are pirates anyway”, that’s
after a direct question from a well-respected, well paid programmer back in
the late 2000s asking “why are our pc ports fucking shit?”, so we
outsourced it all to Eastern Europe.

我曾私下和Yves Guillemot(UBI CEO)開過一次會，他說他毫不在乎PC玩家，
因為，我引他的話「反正90%都是玩盜版」，這句話是回應一個備受尊敬、
高薪的程式設計師在2000年代問的問題「為何我們的PC版都移植得那麼爛」
所以之後我們把移植工作都外包東歐了。


We worked 50-70 hour per week (anything above 37 is unpaid). I’ve seen guys
shamed for leaving at 5pm. We had to beg to have our deadline extended or we
WOULD release a horrible broken mess. To miss our deadline we had to lose a
few random workers.

我們一週要工作50至70個小時(超過37個小時後都沒加班費的)，我看有人恥於在下午五點
前離開公司。我們必須懇求延長完成時限，不然我們可能會推出一個糟糕沒法玩的地雷。
沒能在時限內完成開發，會有幾個人會被隨機開除。

We can release a shit buggy game, or a good one a few months later, but we
have to figure out which is better for our fiscal forecasts because each game
from conception already has a release date and expected revenue for that
fiscal period.

我們可以推出一個充斥臭蟲的遊戲，或者幾個月再推出的良品。但我們要先搞清楚哪個對
我們的財測比較好，因為每個遊戲自從策畫時就已訂下發售日，還有該季的期望收益量。
