    I mean this feels like it should be illegal. Another reason to not buy Ubisoft games I guess.

      it is but it’s a proven successful strategy most of the time anyways since it’s cheaper to pay to fines than the lawsuit and 95% of the time the union doesn’t have to funds to pay for capable legal representation to force the issue so that they result in those fines in the first place.

    I knew they were going to do this after I heard they unionized. But this quickly is crazy

    Cunts.

    I guess my 13 year abstention from purchasing Ubisoft games continues (bought HoMMVI and experienced Uplay in 2012, vowed never again).

    Guess they get all the benefits and security for being fired while unionized then.

      That’s not how this work.

      Just being in a union doesn’t mean there are any benefits. The union has to have negotioated such terms previously and given how recently the union was formed I highly doubt that’s the case.
