If people keep refusing to work on projects for the same reason then it could make a trend that could lead to change in the industry

@Daniel564 unfortunately I think we all know it's just going to lead to them hiring inexperienced or desperate developers and lead to worst games.

@MezKoo true but that can cost them some good will towards loyal fans
