Having employees pull 80+ hr crunch time is common in the AAA game industry... whats so bad about it happening for a few weeks at twitter?

You say that as if the working conditions in the AAA game industry _aren't_ widely regarded as horrible...

Crunch happening in the games industry isn't a defense of it happening elsewhere. It shouldn't be happening in the games industry either.

Having then pull 80+ weeks is bad no matter where it is.

The game dev work environmental is notoriously shitty, that doesn't make it okay to make it shitty elsewhere.

Yes it is common in the gaming industry. That is not a good thing nor a justification for it happening elsewhere.

It is no longer common at all.
