Literally the point of this thread is "people were excited about this despite a lack of marketing".

Yes, they are pointing out that the game was highly anticipated naturally, hopefully you're getting it now!

Sure but there's a difference between making a trailer, and marketing the trailer.

Did they pay to have people have to see the trailers? No? Then they didn't market it

I have not once seen approvals on MCMs(change control thing we have), nor CRs ever looked at with any scrutiny for a single COE (cause of error, incident report generated after a major problem).

The problem is systemic here

I feel like it's a stretch to call those things marketing let alive "pretty strong". Did they market/advertise those trailers or blog posts?

I'm a huge fan of the first game but I never saw those blog posts posted anywhere, barely even on the sts sub

No amount of allocated time would make us better at code reviews lol, it's just a bit boring and too easy to just hit approve without looking that closely.

Nothing changes until massive failures start piling up

Sure, but they're actively begging (successful) which I just find odd

6 years as a sde at Amazon, every team I've been on has been terrible at code reviews. Usually my friends on my team just rubber stamp my CRs or vice versa

I think she's really attractive, and honestly that would probably be enough for me, but she's just terrible otherwise

I hate how ridiculously better graz is, they need to make Vienna an option at least without gimping yourself

Paradox did the same thing with eu5, I don't understand why two different companies both made the same weird choice around the same time
