A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

Higher wages for underpaid workers.
Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
Better and fewer working hours.
Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

So can they now just get together and open a new studio and work the same as if nothing changed?

They were a publisher, not a game studio. They will not be able to work as if nothing changed because they will not have the same contracts to work with.

You got a lot of automatic down votes in the thread because too many people haven't reasoned it out that they didn't make the games. They only published the games other companies/studios made.

If they have the capital/loaned the capital, and have the willingness to, yes.
