ran out of space but heres another thing to consider
the game im working on probably isnt up my alley. i have to keep in mind the game may not be for me or my taste, and being able to factor that in is fucking hard.
i hate rpgs, but if im assigned to an rpg i have to do my job as if im someone that likes rpgs, and that in itself is a skill i rarely see talked about in any field. if i was told to work on a game like animal crossing id ask to swap to a different project, but theyd probably say no anyway. whatever i say or report as an issue could drastically change the game and drive it off a cliff and now youve made an rpg that rpg players hate. i cant let my own personal interest or taste alter the direction UNLESS it is to prevent it from going off that aformentioned cliff.

i recommend this one for cyberpunk on the merit that they internally put this reel together and it was found in their breach https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dl1s-E3SKs
the fact rhey were able to ship the game at all is astounding, even if it was missing half the shit it was promised simply because of how much wrong there was.

then theres other issues that players dont see like server issues where "uh oh we really fucked up our expectations and calculations and we need 10 times more servers" which a recent example can be seen of from riot https://www.riotgames.com/en/news/the-tech-behind-swarm even though this mode is long gone and done they finally made a writeup about it. and dont even get me started on the ratings boards and appeasing those shitheads
