Also worth noting that fnv was developed under heavy crunch and it's a miracle the game is as good as it is. It's the exception, not the rule.

And it was broken and buggy as shit. In many ways it still is, with loading screens being an appropriate roll of the dice as to whether or not they'll crash to desktop.

It's far from an example of what can be done quickly and is, in reality, a total indictment of that kind of stupidly short turnaround time.
