Heard it here first and looks like Arch is going to mention it in his stream later, both places also mentioning the recent closure of Volition...
My acceleration side of me is going 'DO IT!' because it'd love the infiltrated western studios to burn and all that nice IP feasted on by better studios, maybe I can finally get a good Battlefield and Command and Conquer game again. The non-acceleration side of me.....couldn't give a shit, I have zero apathy for these idiots ever since they said I was bad for finding healthy women attractive and didn't castrate myself to prove how loyal I am.
I know strikers have targeted YouTubers and Streamers too but gaming as well, it really seems ALL these people can be easily replaced by AI if they're kicking this much of a fuss about it.
Edit: just saw this video on the same subject looking a bit more on the social media side. Looks like some streamers who are VAs in support of the strike aren't going to play games from companies unless they are 'indie'. Don't know what their indie games are as they could be walking simulators, but probably best to knock them down too. Part of me actually wants this to extend to include anime dub studios and VAs too, just cut out ALL of the cancer at once.
No, no, no! We need actors/writers so we can keep churning out these excellent modern games! Whatever would we do if something interrupted that?
Maybe those dastardly gamers would actually have the GAMEPLAY be the focus instead! How HORRIFYING.
nah they would just pull out the textboxes and just play a sound while the text scrolls.
