Is that about you not reading? (Gaming)

“Our schedule doesn’t allow for this in our product pipeline” is far feom “we just wait to the last minute.”

If you want something, create an appropriate schedule so it can be done.

“We want a game where the bosses are all unique”. “Okay, how long will that take? Great, that’s our schedule.”.

I think this is just the never ending battle between the "creators" and the "deciders"

Decider: We need to do a thing
Creator: When do you need the thing?
Decider: 1 month
Creator: Well, it takes 3 months to do that thing.
Decider: ...you have 1 month.
Creator: How long have you known about this thing being needed?
Decider: 1 year but we just now decided we needed it.
Creator: ...fml.

at least, this is the norm for me :/

I feel like this thread is about this. Except that the deciders are everyone else. The Gamers, the readers, everyone. It's just to let all those people who think it's simple to do a thing just because it seems simple, but there is actually a lot of work that goes into it.

Charge more for your games.

I don't full understand this comment. Can you elaborate?
