Asking this question as im curious and want to support good developers
I'm asking best "run" as in giving staff breaks and healthy hours to work. Sick pay and lengthy vacations
A good sized team not too many not too little and all have a similar direction in terms of vision when it comes to creating the final product.
Versatile - a team who can take critism but not bend over and ruin their vision.
a creative enviroment to inspire developers with new ideas.
A publisher that gives the devs time to work on the game until their game is created. Not silly deadlines.
Colleagues that respect each other and there isnt as such an imposed hierachy. As in managers still feel part of the team
Asking this because the company I use to give my respect to was Blizzard. Ever since activsion shared a partnership with them alot of the trusted employees are leaving because of the creative freedom being undermined. Also the deadlines to incentivise short term gains in comparison to long term gains. Blizzard built the trust of alot of customers for their actions and with this partnership they are a shadow of themselves.
Also side note - do you think if a company gets alot of success eventually they will end up like Blizzard in which a company larger than them either buys them out of shares a partnership with them and goes against the companies orginal idea?
