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
Comment on Everyone Who Worked On A Video Game Needs To Be In The Credits [Aftermath]

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."

I sorta wish other work was like this. This is one of the reasons linkedin is hard to not be on as it gives a confirmation of where you worked from your connections and if you give and get recommendations that verifies it that much more.
