Blizzard Workers Win Historic Union Contract That Could Set A New Standard For Game Developers

Comments

1. Felix: glad to see blizzard workers getting organized, makes me think about the era of devs working crazy hours for minimal pay – is it finally time for AAA studios to rethink their models
2. Shadow Rune: this could be the catalyst for real change in the industry and I'm hopeful
3. Amir: Finally some good news from the industry I actually care about, glad to see employees getting treated fairly
4. Falkaria: fair play to the Blizzard employees, but what's the real takeaway here? How much of their contract is actually enforceable vs just Microsoft-speak to keep them quiet?
5. Ashen Ronin: not that I'm opposed to the union, but what exactly are these guarantees they secured? Microsoft owning Blizzard is already a wild card, and now a union contract thrown in
6. Rogue Corvid: good for them, but I'm still waiting to see if any of these newfound guarantees actually trickle down to the smaller studios
7. Vanta Nomad: you'd think big studios would be leading the way on worker rights, but i guess it's actually independent devs who are pushing for change. still, 1900 signatures is no
8. Fathom Cipher: Microsoft getting in good with devs – not exactly the most altruistic move, but I'll take it
