Mythic VP Refuses to Grant Designer Credit
Most gamers like you and myself probably have never read credits to developer information other than the main publishing company itself. Well, to others, especially those have participated may mean quite alot. If they have spent years into the development of the game, they would expect some sort of quote in the credit. An anonymous former developer has recently left the company before the release of Warhammer is looking to take legal action for not receiving credit for the work contributed in the past. Here are some replies from Mark Jacobs himself.
“I think the credits belong to the people who have been working on this game non-stop, whether they’ve been with us for a week or whether they’ve been with us for three years.”
“If we set that precedent right now, that anyone who worked on the game at any point in time is going to be in the credits, the credits will be 20 pages long.”
“If all the game companies agree on [a standard for credits] — on that day, I’ll be thrilled.”
