Ahoy me mateys. It be another day in.. I don’t know where I’m going with this. Here’s the news.
- Quantic Dream Sues French Media
- Symmetra to Become a Defense Character
Legal Action
Detroit: Become Human developers Quantic Dream has sued the French newspaper Le Monde and the website Mediapart for reports on the studio’s working conditions. A while back, these french media outlets reported racist and sexist remarks made by the studios CEO. Another outlet wrote about the issue, photoshopping the faces of Quantic Dream employees on Nazis and nude women captioned with “today is sodomy” in an article. The studio believes this to be a smear campaign, and legal action is currently taking place against the journalists.
Symmetra Defense Line
Symmetra, The odd-one-out in the support class of Overwatch, is being put under the knife. According to a statement by Timothy Ford, the Lead Software Engineer, She’ll be changed over to a Defense character after the changes. No word on what exactly will be changed to make this a more appropriate decision, but now we at least have a verbal confirmation of their plan.
Not much on the wire today, it seems. That’s alright. Check back tomorrow for more news and stuff. Otherwise, have a great night!
