The
September IGDA
Newsletter follows up on a story that originated with complaints from a
developer about not being credited for his contributions to
Warhammer Online:
Age of Reckoning (
story). Mythic's initial reaction
questioned the complainant's testicular fortitude (
story), but in
their
August
newsletter the
International Game Developers
Association called this situation "disrespectful" and that it "misleads
consumers" (
story). The new newsletter has word that Mythic is
looking to redress this issue by putting complete credits for the game online,
and they will also make a "best effort" at putting such credits online for their
previous games. They do, however, maintain that in-manual credits are reserved
for members of the development team when a game ships. Thanks
