It boggles the mind that so many of these corporate types still, STILL, do not understand that workers with better working conditions = higher morale = more and higher-quality productivity. As if we haven’t been inundated with stories of studios in this industry alone that churned and burned their staff members and…

I love the “direct relationship” bit...as if that direct relationship hasn’t been the core of their problems from the past few decades.

It’s like, these fucking people....do they think workers are unionising for fun? For a laugh? The history of unionisation is that it comes about when conditions for workers SUCK SO BADLY that they feel they have no other choice.

A normal person: “wow how unsportsmanlike!”

From the softball questions to the bizarre YT videos to the contempt from the ubisoft exec, this is truly dystopian levels of coverage, im almost impressed

I’m not sure why IO figured it would be fine to charge full price for the Steam version when the EGS version has repeatedly gone on sale for 50% off. Right now Humble is selling the EGS version for 50% off but the Steam version is full price. To make matters worse, EGS was selling the game for 50% off just yesterday,…

if he were to share his salary, he’d do so via “some third party I could trust to keep it anonymous and average it with other people in roles like mine.”

Yes he did. He has been very vocal about his disdain for the entire concept of magical or otherwise non-human “little people” in popular culture and the fantasy genre in particular. The only reason he agreed to play a “dwarf” in Infinity War was because they made the dwarf a giant, thus subverting the trope.
