Billy put decades of his life into a career in game development. Now, he questions if he can continue to weather an industry that is becoming increasingly hostile to its workers. Follow the link in our bio to demand better of employers like Microsoft and #SaveGameWorkers.

So Xbox has plenty of money to pick up a Kojima game, but not for their workers? 🤔

Guaranteed remote and hybrid protections. Salary increases. Recall rights to open positions 14 months after a layoff anywhere in Blizzard. Massive congratulations to the units at Blizzard for securing these rights (and more) in their historic contract! A win for one is a win for all ✊

The 40 hour work week. Compensation for overtime. The right to organize and strike. These were not inherent rights given to all in the US and Canada. They were fought for by the courageous workers who came before us. On Labor Day, we remember how far we've come, as well as our fight left ahead.

When leadership makes poor decisions and tries to fix them with layoffs, they don't just hurt devs like Anelise. They hurt our players and our games, and never pay the price themselves. Join us to #SaveGameWorkers and gaming overall by using the link in our bio to make your voice heard.

You may have heard ESO’s great-looking Warden Refresh got delayed. You may not have heard who was among those bringing it to life. Christina Cornett, Senior Concept Artist, worked on the storyboards, and Vincent Wong, Senior Animator, worked on the animations. Microsoft laid them off on July 6

everyone was fired up and the speakers were righteous - and we even had enthusiastic support from passerby and nearby workers! a light breeze was merciful and we had lots of refreshments, plus kept the march to a reasonable length but went twice.

marchers with signs including "Error 404: fair contract not found", "stop stonewalling" with a fist punching through a wall, and "Bring back WFH"
