IMO crunch has no excuse; it is a decision that benefits the business while hurting the workers.

"A few weeks" of crunch translates to hundreds of extra working hours.

    I agree, it does, and it does. In many cases it's necessary for the survival of the company once you've committed to release dates and marketing expenses. Larian ought to have enough cushion for their next project that requiring it makes even less sense.
