The head of Xbox Game Studios has claimed that Bethesda no longer has a “crunch culture”, it’s been reported.
“The challenge with a lot of these articles is that they look backwards, sometimes pretty far back in time,” Booty reportedly said during the meeting .Booty reportedly claimed that crunch culture was “just part of the industry,” adding: “I don’t say that to justify it, I’m just saying it was part of the culture of the industry. I literally slept under my desk early in my career. And we looked at that like a badge of honour.
However, he also claimed that those days were gone under Xbox, stating: “I know from talking to Bethesda leadership that we do not have a situation where people are crunching and we’ve got this bullying atmosphere… I’m confident about that.” Booty reportedly added that there was of course the possibility that crunch was going without him knowing about it, and urged employees to follow Xbox’s internal processes, including the ability to give anonymous feedback, to ensure any issues are resolved.
