This is just one of many reasons why unions make the world a better place.

Thanks are owed to the Arkane union workers. These guys rock.

Microsoft is in way too deep with the US government for 'it's us or Israel' to ever favor 'us.'

There's a nonzero chance they close the studio for this. They've been on a streak, lately.
