Yes.

But let’s be real, most of us aren’t going to read all of them.

I really tried with Cyberpunk. I love that game. But the credits just went on and on and on and…

I did it with Animal Crossing though! But every time I ask K.K. Slider to play a song, the credits roll. And there’s an achievement for doing it 50 times. It takes a year. He shows up once a week. I mean it takes a year if you play Animal Crossing every Saturday after 6pm.

I can’t wait to roll credits on Blue Prince. One dude made that game. Like Stardew Valley.

It's not about whether you or I are going to sit down and read through them all. It's for the sake of those workers, that they have documentation of what they worked on that they can cite and say "I'm in there, you can check the credits and confirm."

missingno already explained it, so tangentially related: I like to look out for fun or interesting names. makes a bit of a game with my partner and we read a lot more of the names that way.
Also, playing through a bunch of metal gear at the moment, it's fun to count the number of roles Kojima gave himself :D

That's how you end up with Horizon Forbidden West having 3500 credits, because you credit every single employee of every single company and division that even looked at the game for those five seconds.

That also is kinda problematic, because now your contribution is buried in the names of all of your coworkers who didn't work on the game, so were you then properly credited?

"Battlefield 6, made by {list of every single person currently employed by EA}"

It's kinda something verifiable you need for your resume, so I prefer 3500 credits than missing people.

They should hide somewhere in the game itself the real credits of the people that spent significant effort to make the game. An Easter Egg if you will. Like just after defeating the dragon, you find a scroll in their horde with the real credits.
