Oh those guys? Yeah those are just the dozens of professional voice actors we could afford to hire with our tiny baby game studio budget! And those guys? Yeah that's just our 7-person "engineering" team. What do you mean your entire studio is 4 people?
suck off me
(for the record I'm not dunking on Hades or Hades 2 as a game this is just something that pisses me (and I assume only me) off)
idk i think the AA thing went away when midway games and all the other studios that size couldn't keep the doors open.
Kinda like the death of mid-budget cinema. Now everything is either a cheap passion project or a 300 million dollar extravaganza
Midway being AA is also funny because they were a Bally subsidiary that was publically traded and had like 600 employees. Same with Lucasarts.
Doublefine would be one that could take that moniker probably, since they mostly self fund and have a staff size small enough where most people probably still know each other (~100)
