You shouldn't care about this unless you're in the industry. It won't effect the quality of what we consume.

sure

Yes

Patrick Klepek is one of the absolute worst people in modern gaming culture

To make more tranny games? Fuck AAA they're hardly making anything worthwhile these days. Maybe if the industry crashes we might start getting some good games once it comes back again.

No, it's another way for sjw's to take more power

If Western game journalists say something is good for us, then I highly doubt it is.

>It won't effect the quality of what we consume.
oh you sweet summer child

Every industry should become unionized.

Yes but corporations such EA and Activision would rather destroy themselves and have all their executive officers retire with billions in severance than allow effective labor unions to form.

>join union to stop yourself from getting exploited by the employer
>union exploits you instead because the people running the union don't give a shit about you and only want you there as collateral to force agendas
>employers hire pajeets anyways since they can pay them peanuts and still get the bare minimum of work done
Bang up job there, can eaters.

Imagine believing this. The only reason SJWs have a foothold in video games is because all the self respecting white guys were getting paid nothing and left for other industries

what if we just fired all of the HR department and everyone in the dev team that can't answer a simple programming question

Spoken like someone who has never worked in software. Knowledge of the tech stake and proprietary practices are worth way too much to employers to just flip over projects to pajeets on a dime. You're talking about setting projects back years if not totally abandoning them

Then how would they hire women, LGBT, and people of color?

they wouldn't

Unironically this.
When a good software engineer can make 100k/year working for a bank mon-fri 9to5 why the fuck should he be working for muh vidya for 60k/year 100 hours working week?

These retards need to realize that unionization isn’t possible because there are too many people willing to make video games. They will just lose their jobs. Vox’s union couldn’t prevent the layoffs, he should ask his friends about how that went for them.

There are always stupid kids right out of college to be abused and over worked. Kids want to work in “vidya”

i can't think of a faster way to destroy western games industry than unionization. so yes, we need it

What has unions ever done for improving anything for the customer?

No it’s an entertainment industry

Decades of billionaire kike oil money propaganda has convinced most Americans that unions and worker rights are commulist and true patriots die for their corporate overlords.

All most unions do these days is to make slackers nearly impossible to fire.

>unionize
>companies just use those shitty SEA studios that make shit like Warcraft III Reforged instead

back to Zig Forums you fucking embarrassment

I don't care.
Stop pushing industry problems onto the customers.
Either deliver something that people will buy or don't. These people are responsible for fixing their own shit, not me.

imagine being a room temp IQ yuropoor and thinking that artificial barriers to entry and reducing the size of the labor market is actually a good thing

>inserts "kike" into the statement

you were so close to being right but made yourself look like a retard for blaming MUH JOOZ!!!!!!!

Yes. There's two ways this goes.
>the industry changes for the better
>the industry crashes because of union demands
Either works for me.

I thought the H1B thing was a meme but after working with a ton of Fortune 1000 companies their IT teams are fucking full of pajeets.
I fucking hate corporate america.

if the industry crashes i hope it never really comes back and all we're left with is single-dev projects that are just good enough and don't need to be anything more. just a video game with nothing else to it, no agendas, no message. just some guy practicing his skills and releasing his work to the world. just like it used to be.

There's nothing wrong with unions and they are good for both the economy and the workers.

absolutely. also raise prices for video games to $100+
I will get my popcorn ready.

Sure, so they can cannibalize themselves this way too

Yes. I dont like unions usually but it makes sense in this case

No. Unions ALWAYS cause problems.
