I was proud to attend the ZeniMax protest this afternoon, at their headquarters in Rockville. I stand with the workers who were layed off, calling on Microsoft to do the right thing: reverse the layoffs and support your game developers. #SaveOurDevs #OneBGS #ZeniMaxWorkersUnited #RockvilleMD

This is a tiny thing, but it's what I've got. If you were (or are) a writer/designer/artist on Elder Scrolls, I want to make sure the community remembers your work. Comment or DM me with your contributions and I will make sure they're recorded on The Imperial Library and @uesp.net forever.

Unions are a great way to help developers, but how can regular fans help? Just remember the one-two punch! 1. Support games developed by unionized devs! (An easy way to find out is to look up Studio+Union) 3. Circulate pro-union material (like this post) and keep the conversation alive!

The mega-corporations that own so much of the game industry have proven time and again to be poor stewards for the art and entertainment that we love. Almost the only tool we have against them is to organize. Support unionized workers. Unionize your studio. Dare to dream of a better world.

What venture capital fails to understand, again and again and again, is that building a development team is like building a sports team. It’s THE TEAM that achieve things; not the uniforms. You can’t just “drop 6 from the headcount” and, at some point, hire 6 other people back.. not how it works.

id's frankfurt office, which mostly focuses on the id tech engine, has been hit by layoffs. I've been told that half were let go today, in line with other locations earlier this week. this follows concern that the engine itself could be on the chopping block (which id and microsoft have refuted)

The people that made the #Destiny games deserved better. Incredible love and respect to everyone hit today. Thanks for being incredible.

Hearing that the whole German social team -- including Kai, who who organizes these Taverns -- is being laid off. Due to strong German worker protections, they'll be paid out through the end of the year, but their accounts are likely to shut down soon. If you're at the tavern, tell them THANK YOU 🫂

Monday, I was laid off from my job of 27 years at Bethesda Game Studios. Shock is an understatement. I’m not sure how to feel about it right now, especially since I’ve received no communication other than the teams call about their hard decisions. So I’m kind of in limbo.

The bosses are stealing our game industry, and we aim to take it back! We’re calling game workers, allies, and fans alike to join emergency rallies on WEDNESDAY, JULY 15th! Check this thread for times and locations as they’re established: 🧵

Folks and friendlies in the locales (Montreal, Maryland, Austin, Dallas), show these devs some love and support! Some were there for decades. 💜✊💜

I am not really used to posting anything anywhere; I've never even used this Bluesky account. But I got laid off from Bethesda Game Studios this week. I was a bargaining rep for our union. I applied to work here five times starting when I was 18. I had 0 experience the first couple times I applied.

This week, Microsoft GUTTED Bethesda, Zenimax, iD, & more. The C-suites treat the workers who make the games we love as disposable and don’t care they’re destroying the future of the industry! Let them know it has to STOP here: feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/ide...
