Coalition originally Black Tusk or Zipline was made internally. After buying Gears of War, Rod Fergusson joined Black Tusk and it became The Coalition.

Most developers are not fanboys
Turning it into a table of the players and events, but yeah, its an interesting read.
This is not true. Microsoft already owned black tusk studios that was working on a different game at the time called shanghiest. They changed their name from black tusk to the coalition after the IP was bought no talent came with the IP.
When else will you have an opportunity to get a major discount.
He saw COD being on sale, and his gamepass lit fast.
Virtue signaling as it doesn't come out of their pockets. Now if MS or another game company said they give every women and POC a $10k pay bump, but their own pay went down $10k to cover it, you can bet every dollar you have they'd shut their mouths.
that's not how I understood it. I think she meant that women are underpaid so we should get them. up to men's paygrade. aa/e for bipoc even though I don't know what's the meaning of it.
I would have thought it would be illegal for a company to have different starting salaries for doing the same job.
I kinda get what you're saying, but someone who has been at a company for twenty years over someone that has been there for one surely deserves to be paid more.
Maybe the UK is like that, but in Canada, your starting salary is what you negotiate.
Because saying something like that makes you look virtuous by doing absolutely nothing. That's why she said it.
- This first point is illegal and should be easy to prove and made companies change their behavior. Companies offer a salary range, normally, if they don't negotiate you can't blame the company for sexism. They do the same for men.
Man fuck negotiating for a salary.
Didnt know that. Here, salaries on job boards may or may not list it. The jobs I apply for rarely list it. Only way to know id to get an interview then they tell you. Or if it's through a recruiter, they will tell you.
In the UK too they list a salary range, you can always negotiate. Obviously, as a candidate, you should make it clear from the start what your expectations are.
Idk about BIPOC (must be some weird American thing) but women have a few disadvantages to overcome, mainly child birth which makes them miss out on getting raises or getting promoted. They're also in general more risk averse so they ask for lower salaries.
This is capitalism, you work for money. Let's leave the bullshit outside. They will hire you to make money, it's fair that money comes first.
But the CV part is different, I'm not saying discrimination doesn't exist. I am all for randomizing CV's by removing names and anything that could give out gender, age and so on. I used to live in Japan where, on top of stating your age and gender, they expect you to put a picture on your resume. I'm happy that is illegal in the west.
Yep. If you want to make money, make yourself irreplacable. That's why the really good coders make 500k a year while shitty coders work for 12 bucks an hour.
Generally on the liberal/left side, but yeah, sometimes the more extreme end can't see the forest for the tree.
You made me laugh cause I don't document the fuck out of my work which is one way to make yourself irreplaceable in a way. I am not a good coder though.
KOTR remake is a big one. Though I don't remember if exclusive. God of War ragnorak comes out this year.
Yup.
We shouldn't pretend that the irreplaceable coder is a common thing. In my career that's been incredibly rare and those people are often specifically identified as people who are a risk to business continuity and plans are made to obsolete them more often than not. There aren't a ton of people like that.
Nope...at least in Italy... For every work theres some "levels"
Yeah i'm sorry if it trigger you, but i'm excited about games, not about X aquired Y.
They have announced some games and release some as well, maybe not at taste of everyone but it's there.
Yup.
Holy shit! I want to meet the MF's that closed a near 70 billion dollar deal in two months. I could rule the world with a mouth piece like that!
Bullshit.
