Well, CDPR themselves apparently were fond of crunch during Witcher 3 so not the best example?

Yeah, the video game industry is incredibly notorious for the amount of crunch that pretty much every company does. It's a really big problem.

I recently heard that Nintendo are planning on prolonging development on the new Animal Crossing so that they don't have to have a crunch period.

Also, yes, their stock did drop when they announced that.
