We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
Yeah, I've given up on that and I'm fortunate enough to be able to choose work environments where people will shut up with that kind of stuff, but I'm aware that you're always one bad job move from an asshole team or boss tbh.
It's a fair point, that doesn't excuse Cage at all, but as an outsider to this particular industry, it looks to me like QD is pretty representative of the way it works. These tweets Arilian quoted upthread show how at least parts of the French industry are absolutely anti-union and try to kill or dismiss efforts at unionizing, which is really another aspect of the same problem.
Yeah, this is all theater. The point was to push back to discredit attacks, and blur the lines, so that they could say every claim was disputed and move away from the accusations. That's exactly what that weirdo doing backflips for them was doing in other threads, even finding coverage that cast doubt on the allegations based on that suit.
That was great. I also love the apologist giving QD credit for planting a garden or whatever.
"The end of Cage" refers to his place of prominence in the industry, I think. Doubt anyone expects for him/QD to face significant legal consequences.
Ubisoft has a highly noted rape and sexual abuse riddled corporate culture not to mention issues with overall Sexism/Racism/Homophobia and the majority don't care or hold them to it.
Cage/QD might loose some face and close some doors, but the majority of his fanbase is likely to not know about this let alone if they did even bother to care.
Yeah, it's an optimistic read either way. I would expect the next QD game to do very well.
I mean I certainly wouldn't support them after this, but that is easy for me to say as I wasn't a fan in the first place so then not making games for me is alright haha.
That said, have the Mod team considered how/if David's/QD games will be discussed/followed here? With David having been exposed to have said things like these will we just kinda continue as has been or will things change?
Note this isn't so much me pushing/wanting changes as it was it just popped into my mind and now I'm curious?

the use of that copypasta is to show extreme fake outrage, to show that the entity in the pasta is being attacked for no good reason
the original copypasta was someone being angry at square enix for making final fantasy 13 for the 360
just an fyi
And you'll have diehard fans with the "but, but its not just him, there are other devs too, why do you punish them, CONSUME GAME ! "
He has a lot of will power to actively avoid this thread considering he's still here.

New statement from Solidaires Informatique, following a mail they received from QD's Social and Economic Committee. Mostly about photomontages the union relayed on their website. They did not posted them online but shared them. As far as I know, it's people within Quantic Dream who leaked them online. But people's faces were not blurred / hidden which is not great IMO (and why I did not brought them up):

Not as far as I know. But they exist (nothing explicit thankfully, though super gross in what is implied).

Report: Quantic Dream Executives Cry, Ask If They Can Lie During Recent Court Appearance
Quantic Dream executives recently appeared in a Paris court as part of its ongoing defamation lawsuit against French publications Le Monde and Mediapart. But according to a May 31 report, things didn’t go smoothly for the studio behind games like Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human.

Quantic Dream vs le moustacho-gauchisme
Jeudi 27 et vendredi 28 mai 2021 se tenaient les audiences du procès en diffamation intenté par Quantic Dream et ses deux principaux dirigeants contre les journaux Le Monde et Mediapart pour les enquêtes de 2018. Le verdict ne sera connu que début juillet, mais c’est toujours chouette les procès...www.canardpc.com
It's short, but if someone speaking French want to read it without a subscription to Canard PC or without whining (aka asking a subscriber to share the article with you), you can (like I said, at least for a couple of days, I don't remember if it's free forever or just for a week).
Well, the shitty photoshopped pictures were about almost everyone working here, so, you see, inclusive !
Update: Verdict delayed to September.
(Dan Israel wrote articles for Mediapart regarding Quantic Dream, and worked with journalists from Canard PC and Le Monde).
According to the STJV, le Monde was convicted:

William Audureau is a journalist working for Le Monde, and he wrote the article about Quantic Dream. He just explained what the French court decided about the case between Le Monde and Quantic Dream.
According to him, QD lost its lawsuit, except on two points. The first, the court found that le Monde didn't have enough proof to write what they wrote. The second, le Monde didn't present the testimonies it had in its possession, to respect the anonymity of the women who gave them.
