Pretty sure any animation artist going to work on Mortal Kombat knows the gore that's in store. Ignorance is not an excuse, it doesn't even hold up in court. This anonymous person is acting like a child.

Oooof, this sounds awfully 'get off my lawn'....
I think they do actually, but you know, you have to work... burn out is high. I looked up a website that talks about it.
"preparation" is not "knowing", it means you actually learn psychological coping strategies for dealing with death and violence, because its tough for almost everyone. and i dont think that anyone applying at NRS does or should expect to view videos of actual killings to make fricken mortal kombat.
I mean, even if it's never talked about or never sees the light of day, that doesn't mean PTSD doesn't exist in the medical field. If I had to wager a bet, I'd say a lot of doctors are holding in a metric ton of stress and trauma.
if you think material of real life murder has business in video game production you need to see a doctor.
Who says they were forced? No one said that. The article stated that some people were doing that type of research on their own.
PTSD from watching hangings, war footage, cattle slaughter, for 80 hours + straight and frame by frame recreation of said fatality over and over... yeah, that could fuck your brain up. Playing the game and seeing the end product of a fatality for 15 seconds... not so much. I'd implore you to read the article.
maybe now that someone finally spoke up (which you apparently disapprove), people can actually do research before applying to NRS
. anyway i think your attitude is short-sighted nonsense, psychological dynamics why people go into and stay in a job are complex. also its the task of an employer to provide working conditions that live up to the insights of modern work medicine and psychology anyway - and those are completely different from what you say.
If no one says they were forced, then I'm going to come to the logical conclusion that it's cause they weren't forced. There are a million other less traumatic ways you can research the human body without looking at actual people dying. I mean, seriously why are you defending idiocy?maybe now that someone finally spoke up (which you apparently disapprove), people can actually do research before applying to NRS
Watching 80 hours of killings straight? Yeah I’m sure he really did that, cause that’s what someone would do for 80 hours straight with no sleep, totally. if he really did that he would be numb to it by the first hour, lel.
the article describes an atmosphere where "everyone does it". the bosses didnt respond to an inquiry about the article. to me this speaks a clear language. are you even aware that leading personnel often actually learn in workshops how to create such environments where force is exercised indirectly, for example by peer pressure and an atmosphere of fear of losing the job? this fits in very well with the last article where contracts didnt get renewed but the chance was always promised. especially in the USA, where losing your job can also mean losing your health insurance, people in their mid-20s who just finished education and are still naive in the working world are easy prey for these tactics. NRS is a dream company for many, hell yes they are gonna cross their limits for the job and only gonna realize it later. it would be NRS's task to PREVENT unhealthy working conditions actively, but instead they are at least ignorant to it, but what i smell is that they want it that way.
So they're all influenceable, gullible, they have no backbone and just finished school. Imagine my shock. Life is hard, they'll get over it. NRS isn't their parent.
ok go on playing the tough guy. i'll move on.
It's ma'am
I think you spend too much time reading anti-capitalism propaganda rags.

it is not to crush their souls but to squeeze them out for profit. and i know these workshops for a fact as i have been an active member of a union and a workers council member in a million dollar "startup". its actually common practice. not everyone reads sun tzu or machiavelli, but some CEO's do and their ideas get traded down in simplified form. ever heard of the "the pistol and the crocodile"? thats the kind of stuff they learn.
