    Yeah and all that white knighting gives visibility to the issue and now Larian has reached out to ask for the full teams name to put in the credits. Good thing the common population doesn’t share your opinion or that never would have happened

      Except if there actually is an issue (we still haven’t heard from the people affected by this) then this accomplishes next to nothing. If this generation continues to rely on fickle internet FOMO crap instead of, I don’t know, actually attempting to solve their problems, nothing is going to get better. We’ve turned companies into ‘internet responders’ who care more about their internet image than actually taking care of their workers. If this group of workers is actually affected by this as negatively as the internet feels, then they need to work for change internally in their industry. This is just a shiny thing the internet picked up on before it moves on to the next.

        Lmao that’s the most reaching argument I’ve ever heard in my life. Won’t anyone please save these poor companies from being “internet responders” and help them from pretending to care about their workers and forcing their hand to actually do something.

        After all the only change that matters is internal change. Conveniently the kind of change that the general public also has zero way of influencing so any time a company performs any kind of obvious injustice it’s obviously virtue signalling to mention it since we have zero influence on internal policy.

        Much better that companies not even give an appearance of giving a shit compared to the world we live in now where the direct problem people complained about is now being addressed

          Reading comprehension might be an issue for you. Never did I ever insinuate that the companies were in need of saving from this. But thanks for letting me know my points are wasted on you. Stick with your echo chambers I guess.

              Oh nice, internet sarcasm? That’s basically the “it’s a prank, bro” when you get called out. Nice try though.

                  I check back on this thread just to see if you have anything intelligent to offer. I’ll probably just stop checking now…

                    Wow that’s actually kind of pathetic that you’re so wrong and you don’t have a life

                Wow would you look at that they even had internal policy changes because of internet white knighting. Granted we can take this with a heavy heavy grain of salt and their commitment remains to be seen but you’re just taking L after L

                https://www.eurogamer.net/baldurs-gate-3-translation-company-commits-to-change-after-leaving-staff-out-of-credits

                Altagram goes on to list seven commitments it will adhere to in order to ensure proper accreditation of its workers in future, including the establishment of an internal crediting commitmee, improved transparency between clients and staff, and a commitment to the IGDA guidelines which were set out earlier this year.

                  It’s funny to me that you think someones point of view differing from yours could be an L. You do realize we can have differing points of view, and I have yet to see an L in mine, right?
