    I’m one of the ones who’s been arguing letting their skill go was insane.

    And even Fallout 4 was over 11 years ago. Still a very different time and company then.

      Chaps, I believe we can all agree that even if Id Software consisted of a cage filled with deranged chimps they’d still be more qualified and useful than any Microsoft exec.

          Tech workers have traditionally been allergic to unions for some reason, though that is starting to change. They should contact Game Workers Unite or the IWW.

            These are seasoned senior vets. They should have enough bank to syndicate.

      My word, Fallout 4 was eleven years ago.
