The GDC's advice to low resource teams is pretty consistently that they should work harder and find more resources.

I was going to post something similar but refrained from doing so. Thanks for getting it out there. It's easy to feel sorry for teams without the fortunate circumstances others enjoy. However, we'd be in a much worse state if we embraced the idea that everyone who needs help is entitled to it. Then you basically enter a competition of who can prove to be more needy than the next, which is not at all where we want to go. I'd rather compete for resources than lack thereof.
