The first of four lawsuits towards Activision Blizzard regulated for 18 million dollars

The UNITED STATE Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is a federal agency that was established by means of the Civil liberty Act of 1964 to provide as well as apply civil liberties legislations versus work environment discrimination.: 12, 21 The EEOC checks out discrimination problems based upon an individual s race, shade, nationwide origin, religious beliefs, sex, age, handicap, sexual positioning, gender identity, genetic information, as well as retaliation for reporting, taking part in, and/or opposing an inequitable practice.The Commission additionally mediates and works out hundreds of discrimination problems annually before their examination. The EEOC is also encouraged to file civil discrimination fits versus employers on part of declared sufferers and also to adjudicate cases of discrimination brought versus government agencies.

Activision Blizzard slowly begins to explain the confusion around himself. The company enters more and more entities and at some point the four issues were in the same point:

DFEH Communication Workers of America Securities and Exchange Commission ~~ EQUAL EMPLOYMENT Opportunity Commission ~~

This last can be deleted, because the case was settled. Activision Blizzard got along with the EQUAL Employment Opportunity Commission, so this clause no longer applies. The company issued an official statement, undertook to fight discrimination and harassment in its ranks, promised to create appropriate guidelines and regulations to work at Activision Blizzard to be safe and pleasant to everyone.

And Activision Blizzard undertook to create a fund worth 18 million dollars for compensation and redress qualifying employees. All amounts not used for applicants will be divided between charity organizations that support women in the video game industry or promote awareness of problems related to molestation and gender equality, as well as initiatives in the field of diversity, equality and company integration, in accordance with EEOC approval.

The agreement is subject to approval by the Court. Activision Blizzard also announced the initiative to develop program tools and training programs to improve the principles and practices in the workplace for employers throughout the entire technology industry.

It is worth adding here that the lawsuit Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is not new, because they have been going on since May 2020 and only now he came to the end. Activision Blizzard also keeps words when it comes to not using and removing the names of real people from their games. Therefore, for example, reference to Jeff Kaplan disappear from Overwatch 2.

The official reason was not given, but rather it is not about entering some disturbing matters, but only for cleaning the game for the future. Does this mean that Morhaime s reference will also disappear to Metzena? Time will tell.

Soulslike 2D Metroidvania Souldiers coming next year

Image
Punitive game fans should be ready for the adventure of their lives. Future in the spring 2022, Retro Forge Games Souldiers merged a gameplay similar to that of Souls with Metroidvania level exploration. By focusing on action, aldiers allows players to choose from 3 classes. These classes include an archer, a spell launcher and a sword handling scout. These classes bring full upgrade paths and 3 completely different game styles for easy replay. Similar to other games Soulsborne, there is a movement of parade and dodge. The Metroidvania elements come from the Level Design. There is a decent amount of platform involved in the game and probably involves a multi-level exploration design. For example, players could be exploited in an area, some paths being unlocked by a capacity that is only granted to the player later in the game. For now, we do not have much information about the game, which is disturbing with a launch date so close. The 16-bit graphics are incredible and we are con...
