Hopefully this isn't forgotten about in an hour just because PlayStation makes better games than Activision.
I hope this won't get buried because the state of play. Also hasn't this been reported before with Insomniac games?
Of course to the casual audience they probably don't even know about these issues or care. However, every Activision thread rightly has a ton of post saying "Fuck Activision", I hope we get that same energy with any company that has these issues.
God damn. This hobby really is rotten to the core and it makes me hate consuming it sometimes. Get your shit together, Sony.
Get your shit together Sony. You can't go around making comments about activision and "how you need to revaluate your relationship with them" if you're just as bad
Yikes… really depressing thing to hear that it's widespread across PlayStation as a whole.
Hope this lawsuit will move forward and hopefully lead to some public scrutiny and Sony addressing these issues

"getting their shit together" for them means getting a court to dismiss or sweep these allegations under the rug, leaving these women to fend for themselves against any repercussions or ostracization from their employers.
BUT HEY, LET'S POST THAT INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY BANNER OF ALL THEIR FEMALE CHARACTERS HANGIN OUT YAAAAYYY
Just look at all those wide angle photos of development teams. Mostly just white dudes. It sucks!
The issues about sexism in the industry are systemic, and ultimately an entire refresh of the industry will be required in order to fully eliminate. I don't know if that will be possible, but I sure as hell hope people pressure them to make the changes needed to solve these issues.
I fail to see how this is relevant to this in particular, care to elaborate?

It could be seen as Sony trying to deflect from this article
Exactly. The only thing that is going to make these companies change their tunes are to call them out and hit them where it hurts. Sony's stock price is actually up today, so I can't imagine them viewing this as any kind of big deal for them.
I wonder if you'll hear Greg Miller, for example, on KF tomorrow saying "Fuck Jim Ryan", or if that was just an easy thing to say (with regards to Kotick) when a big portion of your audience aren't die hard Call of Duty fans. It will interesting to see if the industry pushes back on Sony the way they have been on Activision.
I'm not accusing them of it because I don't have any evidence, but it seems like they were reached to comment for this article highlighting the lawsuit and released a statement about them suspending software/hardware shipments in Russia and donating $2 million a few minutes before the article dropped.
Hopefully more victims see this and and come forward. This needs to pass and Sony needs to address it fast.
What a shitshow. Fix your shit.
What a shitshow. Fix your shit.
Disappointing. When hearing the news about how their game studios have problems it's kind of a matter of time to me Playstation would get it's own set of stories. It's disgusting stuff. Sony needed to address and fix it, not try and bury the problems see if it goes away.
Hummanity is generally. I can't stand people, I much prefer animals.
Can only hope that everyone responsible for this behavior and those with power who ignore it are swiftly removed, that where necessary people are prosecuted and that the victims get all the help they need. Fuck people responsible for this type of behavior.
