Over 1,000 Ubisoft workers around the world have walked off the job.

In response to a return-to-office mandate, layoffs, and the cancellation of several games, workers launched a three-day strike.

The workers walked out in response to five French unions issuing the strike call.
Ubisoft workers are on strike: 'We are treated like children'
The strike comes after the publisher revealed plans to cut up to 200 jobs and ordered remote workers back into the office

the CEO taking responsibility & helping place workers at new positions is the bare minimum.

show me executives who take pay cuts. show me studios who understand the time it takes to make games so they have financial resources to avoid layoffs. show me an industry that isn't rotten at it's core.

House decides they’re A-ok with a significant portion of women not being able to vote. I’ll be calling my senators again tomorrow and hope you will too.
BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

House passes SAVE America Act, sending Trump-backed election bill to the Senate
The legislation would overhaul federal election laws in all 50 states by imposing new voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements. But it faces a daunting path in the Senate.

geoff keighly should be held partially responsible for these layoffs. he put this trailer in the final slot at the game awards & the game would have been better received if he hadn't done that.

the executives responsible for the layoffs should also be held accountable but geoff isn't innocent.

Layoffs directly after launch is a normalized part of the dev cycle. But who's responsible for that? Not the actual game workers.

It's time we take our power back.

the cycle of “devs working for years to make a game > game launches (and it doesn’t matter how successful it is) > two week waiting period > most of the team laid off” is not only entirely unsustainable but genuinely horrifying
Highguard developer Wildlight has reportedly laid off most of its team, says one a level designer sharing the news of layoffs.

The live service game launched just two weeks ago after being revealed at The Game Awards.

If you're a streamer who doesn't know about politics, that's because you chose not to know. You chose not to pay attention because the politics that are happening right now don't affect you & you don't care about them. You're privileged & lack sympathy.

Being apolitical is still a political stance.

not manifesting anything for this state of play, and i have zero expectations, but predictions are fun:

- blade runner 2033 trailer
- people of note release date
- zero company release window

blade runner 2033 was probably "indefinitely delayed" but i need a wildcard lol

Discord isn't walking back anything yet, but this shows they are feeling the pressure and you should keep bullying and contacting them until they relent.
Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

We are rooting for Ubisoft's employees and fully support the strike coming next week.

As videogames workers, we need to stand united to demand and obtain better work conditions & more ethical practices overall. We can -and will- make our industry better! 💫
