Yes, deadlines suck. But what company doesn't have deadlines? If there are any, then I'd love to work for that company. So, yeah, I'd like to work for a company that doesn't impose any deadlines on its employees. None, basically. :lol:

Well one company I know that doesn't have a deadline (just loosely held internal deadlines) is 3DRealms. They're official release policy is When It's Done. They make deadlines for themselves because any responsible company does that, but they can spend as much time as they want on their games. They've spend almost 6 years on Duke Nukem Forever and will spend more.

 

Actually many game studios that have released hit games have very flexible schedules and do what they want like Blizzard, Valve, id, Raven, Lionhead, etc.

 

For consoles I think its harder to have such easy schedules because they are just so many console games that they have to come out at the right time and quite a few of them are based on movie licenses so they have to be released at the right time.

 

But hey, that's just what I think. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry, you probably know more than I. All I know is that I detest deadlines and would love to work in a career that is much more flexible -- god knows we've all had one too many deadlines for school anyway.
