So? Like I said, THOUSANDS of unaffected games compared to a pathetic handful of affected ones. And many people don't even see the same "problems".
So, just because only a few big companies like Ubisoft or Blizzard have faced public cases of harassment and abuse, we’re supposed to ignore that these issues exist industry-wide? This kind of thinking explains exactly how such problems are able to persist for so long, unchecked.
Cause there is THOUSAND of unaffected game companies compared to what the public actually knows.
Nice.

What can I do about it? I'm not working at Ubisoft and Blizzard. Blizzard was fined for the sexual harassment, but due to American law favoring corporations, the fine was pocket change for them. Am I supposed to sue Blizzard and Ubisoft myself? For what? I'm not supporting either company either. I bought "Child of Light" and that's the only Ubisoft game on my account. What do you want me to do about Bioware either?

Whoa, I didn’t mean for you to take action! Just pointing out the logical fallacy in dismissing issues because there are 'only a few cases.' Relax—it was sarcasm, aimed at showing how flawed that reasoning is.

Why should I care about things I cannot affect?

Then, please, go on ahead.
In case you do wish to ask - Yes, I do plan to read it all.

Oh yeah, heh. Ya'r welcome.

Sure, happy to explain, but to get the full context, it’s best if you watch the video.
The youtuber shares specific examples from people in the industry who’ve noted that leadership roles often seem filled more for identity factors or box-checking than qualifications alone, and the evidence he presents really completes the picture.

It's also funny how often people ask for summaries to fish for ammo instead of genuinely engaging—if you’re interested, watching the video is the best way to get the clearest picture.
But let's see.

More rage-bait. The game industry is FINE. Rage-bait Youtube drama queens are just farming clicks, thousands of good games unaffected by these "problems".

You are a wokey posing as a centrist. Simply dismissing everything as "rage-bait" is not an argument, it is pure cope and the default "strategy" (lol) of woketards.

No, I have already explained why I won't watch the video.
That aside, if that's all that the video is about, then I have no need to watch it to begin with - To me, what you're claiming the video is about is completely obvious and to be expected.
I'm not surprised for what's the reality got in store, but I'm surprised that somebody even takes the time to make videos of the obvious, but attempts to mask it under something unexpected, mysterious, and uncommon despite that not being the case.

Thanks again.

You’re good! I think you’ve said enough about not caring—point taken!

You sound really upset about something but I can't figure out what.

It's pretty pointless to lose sleep over things I cannot exert any kind of influence over. So let me ask you: What can you or I as individuals do against these so-called problems?

Its a cultural problem that infects society as a whole. You supported these harmful idealogies by dismissing the damage they do to society. Star Wars was considered a franchise that is too big to fail, a license to print money. You still don't acknowledge its downfall and why it happened ? - then the problem continues.

I don't care about Star Wars. It's entertainment and not my cup of tea. If a form of entertainment does not appeal to me, I don't give it any kind of attention. The games I am interested in don't do any kind of damage to society.

How to spot when Games are snapping out of DEI practices?

The same root cause exists in any industry. Every big corporation participates it because of the benefit from participating - government programs, money, investment and less media scrutiny (at least initially). Its hiring people based on gender or race to fulfil a quota. The education system has been doing it for decades so if it is true that the problem has not affected you then you must be uneducated. Admitted its not really that big problem for grades 1-9. But its a huge problem with higher education and leads to big disparity of male vs female graduates and that becomes further problem in adult and family relationships (and lack thereof).

You think this problem does not affect you ? I urge you to think again.

Or I am simply not American and I have other fish to fry. The education in my country is unaffected, the entertainment I am indulging in is pretty niche, the culture around me DOESN'T have to fulfill a "quota" on hired discriminated groups... The US is not the entire world, remember that.
