MC, do you have any stories like this from working on GTA 5?

Well, I couldn't reply to this before but look at this:

I can respond, yaaay.

Yeah, I've been on RDR2 for five years. It's actually a pretty well-managed project. The nature of American labour laws is that they don't count lunch or exercise breaks, so...my typical day on RDR2 has been 9 hours working 1 hour lunch, 1 hour exercise cause I want to exercise before the sun sets. This does mean 11 hours at work. I very rarely worked weekends. So...55 hour work weeks when we add in breaks or 45 if you don't (most would count that as 55). Did that go higher than 55 near big deadlines? Yeah, to like...60, maybe 65 (usually in short bursts).
