How do you think a game developer feels when their game bombs?

They wouldnt feel too good would they? or maybe they dont care because they know they are releasing shovelware. What do you think?

They normally just blame it on one of the following:

1) Deadlines

2) Budget

3) Releasing around the time of MW2

4) Production problems

Never incompetency though!

You forgot the big one - piracy!

I think you'll notice that quite a few developers with low-scoring games complain about piracy's effects on their sales. :P

I'm sure every developer wants there game to be good, but there are deadlines and at the end of the day, keeping your job is the most important thing. So you have to follow the publishers rules or whoever is funding you.

They go curl up in a corner in their bedroom and cry themselves to sleep.
