The fact that some of the companies who run the games industry are fighting so hard to stop unionization just proves how much power the workers have when they stand together. This disgusting action only delays the inevitable; solidarity will win.
This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity.

We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.
BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.

With all the SNAP stuff giving to meal charities is great & Food Pantries can really use your help! Meal charities like Meals on Wheels deliver cooked meals to the homebound, Food Pantries give groceries to anyone from the unhoused to a normal family who is a paycheck behind.

Several actors I know have already received this scam impersonating Dean Panaro Talent. There are many red flags here, but an agency reaching out on official business would send it from their actual domain (@ deanpanarotalent.com) not a burner Gmail account. Stay safe!
Oh come on, scammers. This is starting to get ridiculous. 😆

If you're repped by Dean Panaro Talent, could you please send an email with a link to this tweet / these screenshots and let them know? Thanks, folks. 🙏❤️

"You can't un-invent AI!" We can't un-invent asbestos either. That doesn't mean we have to use it.

The first most important thing you can do to support workers is to listen to them.

They love their work and they want to keep making games, and they deserve a union to make their work safe and sustainable.

Very glad to see People Make Games follow this closely. Staying tuned and in solidarity ✊
I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

I've been doing video game VO since 2003. In my 20+ years, only ONE game has ever paid "royalties/residuals/bonus payments."

That game?

Date Everything.

And that's ONLY because it's a game produced by professional voice actors who purposefully created a special contract for the game w/ SAG-AFTRA.
Ask literally any voice actor if they get royalties from the video games they worked on.

They will tell you no. They might even laugh.

Now imagine any developer actively trying to use AI VO to save money wanting to offer something like that.
Also, re: "they get royalties", how much money is that? Does it make up for the lack of continued work?

Paying next to nothing is still "getting paid royalties" but is functionally nothing.

SAG-AFTRA stands in solidarity with the IWGB Game Workers Union exercising their right to organize following reports of union-busting at Rockstar. Our members’ union performances on Rockstar games are an integral part of the success and legacy of games like Grand Theft Auto.

Support independent/single studios, not conglomorate monopolies
Not a fan of how every entertainment platform is slowly being acquired/consolidated by conservative billionaires who are all friends and hang out with eachother on the weekends. Feels not good.

HoYoverse participated in the recent BosonAI hackathon event this past week.

BosonAI promotes themselves as “Making communication with Al as easy, natural and fun as talking to a human.” and highlights “Audio Generation. Rich emotional voice synthesis.”

Highlighting because of the audio aspect.
