Over 200 employees from Rockstar North have signed a letter to management, in which they have condemned the firing of fellow staff members.

      Your lack of interest hasn’t stopped the franchise being like the second biggest video game franchise. I’m afraid that this won’t notably hurt their sales. Especially since you probably weren’t gonna buy it anyway.

          Then you’ll have reached nothing but given a few people a feeling of moral superiorty and saved them a few bucks.

          But it is not effective in the sense that these workers will be able to work in this sector again or will get their job back. A few folks complaining and pledging not to buy the game won’t scare Take2 to rehire the workers or stop unionbusting.

              Then what are you trying to achieve, exactly?

              That’s all your war.

              I doubt it, but ok.

                No.

                How about you tell us what YOU are trying to accomplish with your argument.

                  Ok, now that’s just rude.

                  I’d like to inform people that they have a belief that’s morally pleasing, but ineffective in helping anyone.

                    “Ineffective in helping anyone”

                    So basically exactly what you are also doing.
