This is just one of many reasons why unions make the world a better place.

Thanks are owed to the Arkane union workers. These guys rock.

Microsoft is in way too deep with the US government for 'it's us or Israel' to ever favor 'us.'

There's a nonzero chance they close the studio for this. They've been on a streak, lately.

My thoughts exactly. Calling for an audit from a corrupt company operating under a corrupt gov? Rip stjv, probly. Fucked up.

They're calling for a boycott and you want to spend more money instead?
