There's a few things to account for here instead of the internet/gamers/people just irrationally losing their shit like they are want to do over things so they can feel morally superior.

1) This kind of excessive overtime shit is well documented in the industry working for big devs. If you take a position with one of these guys and you don't think something along these lines is going to happen at some point, you're dumb for not doing your research.

2) It is just as well that this guy made this tweet as a form of support for his employees / giving them public recognition. If I worked for a company like this I would damn well want my employee to give me a public shout-out / recognition for killing myself like that for the company. I would feel way worse going through those working conditions and never being recognized for it.

3) You don't know what the trade-off / comp is for this stuff. Maybe they are not making more in wages, but they may very well be getting reduced hours in future weeks etc. after the grind. I put 60 hours in sometimes at my job. When I have a slow week I can say hey I'm working 20 this week and I don't get any shit for it.

4) If they are this stressed for employee hours it's as simple as walking out the door if it's too much of a burden for you to take part in. They're not firing someone who's only working 60 hours a week when they have people going 100 to get this shit done.

There's other numbers too but nah just get out the torches. Fuck this guy right.
