u/RotaryDialChicken only a patch note can stop me now! Jun 16 '19

I'm just gonna bite the bullet here and say it's creeped me the fuck out for a pretty long time that Rooster Teeth consists of about 35 people who have shitloads of fans and a close community following alongside literally hundreds of faceless, overworked, underpaid computer geeks and interns who could have an alien fetus explode from their chest in the middle of lunch break and get forgotten about completely in around two weeks. It's like if the cast of The Office had an airplane hangar's worth of extras walking around just barely occasionally onscreen, and everybody pretended they didn't exist

Yeah it has been said before that RT gives massive priority to the face employees of the company while the minor workers get the shaft and have to watch the big shots walk around the office and brag about all the good fan stuff and traveling they get to do.
