True, but here is icing on the cake. I manage to get a nice glimpse of figures and a few overheard conversations about our so called outsource profits. It would seem the cost to produce a project here, is 65%-70% of the original cost. So im pretty much geussing , if you actually have a chance to work on something good, but your pay is bad, you might wanna look at your CEO and how deep his pockets have gotten. Its not because he can't pay you more, its because why would he pay you more?

i think if you decide to work in MY, no game company would pay very well as compared to overseas... we're usually the low cost sweatshop
if you dont have the option to work overseas, what other choice is there?
i do agree that the wage situation is quite embarassing lol

what are you doing now that you're not in production?

i'm pretty sure MY team was involved in OFP, not sure which one as there are several. some codies here in the forum have said as much...
i've also heard from Max, who was general manager there that they were involved. he was one of the mentors during my internship with MDeC

I moved on to another job line in the advertising industry. Its a pretty okay job, and they have a solid ladder for you to climb if you actually do good. Will never go back to working for Production houses unless they don't mind to outsource to me as a freelancer. But still im improving on what i learn to make sure i don't fall behind.

Dang, this thread is too depressing to read.

Maybe for westerns game companies. In Japan, sweatshops with a higher cost of living. I tried overseas, it ain't heaven. I guess there is no such things in a game company.
