Its weird to think that probably this games only legacy that people will remember related to it will be that one of the artists self-reported the company using illegal hiring practices.
I didn't know about it until you mentioned it now, and it changes nothing for me.
Congrats on not being addicted to nonsense culture war outrage
Wait, what happened?
The chuds are butthurt that an Obsidian artist said he would prioritize helping artists of color get into the industry over “crusty old white men” or something along those lines. They’re just taking a self deprecating joke too seriously, imo.
Ah, so textbook ageism/racial discrimination in hiring.
I wonder what's going to come of it.
Nothing, because one artist writing off the cuff on Twitter doesn’t represent an entire company’s hiring practices
All they have to do is look at the demographics of who applied and who got hired, and if there's a statistical discrepancy, bada bing bada boom, you got a fine.
