Sacred Symbols+, Episode 146: Take A Seat (Patreon)

The situation at Activision has evolved greatly, with Bobby Kotick indicating he may be open to leaving the company he once saved from extinction, while the publisher's various studios are countering with a cacophony of employee-led actions, including walkouts. Meanwhile, serious accusations at Ubisoft have been swept under the rug (we only have so much collective consciousness), so we wanted to revisit those, too, to see where we stand.
