Wow. Just wow. If this is true... Imagine working there and seeing everything go to sh*t. But even when this Topps has left, why didn't they respond to Kabrutus? Why no public statement? Even when the game is in a too far state, at least you could do damage control by being transparent and just admit that your company was destroyed by DEI activists.

I feel sorry for the genuine passionate coders, developers, artists and designers in the industry who have been swept up by a political whirlwind over the past few years and forced into fences they have to operate within to create "art" to political demands. It's that same kind of awkward situation you find yourself in in a country like China, Soviet Union, Nazi Germany and others that lacked artistic freedom and would use force, social destruction or economic destruction to pressure people to conform.

A lot of good people out there just want to have a job and some just want to do their passion and never dreamed of laboring to some political goal when they just wanted to have fun and get paid. All of the examples of this small or large suck in history. Art works best when the leash is off and there aren't political officers leaning over them - FOR ANY party. Two wrongs don't make a right.

Nice read, looks like Ubisoft allow their employees to run their mouths off on X as well.

Can't people separate their professional lives from their hobbies?
