Test Drive Devs Join Greedfall 2 Creators’ Strike
In a show of solidarity, Kylotonn, the developers behind the highly anticipated Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown, have joined the growing strike against Nacon, the publisher behind the Greedfall series. The move comes in support of Spiders, a French studio that has filed a complaint over poor working conditions and wages at Nacon.
Kylotonn Employees Stand in Solidarity
The French video game developers’ union has announced that Kylotonn employees have officially gone on strike in support of Spiders. This action highlights the growing discontent among French game developers regarding working conditions and treatment within the industry.
Nacon’s “Coherence” Policy Under Fire
Kylotonn employees have expressed frustration with Nacon’s “coherence” policy, which often rejects requests for improvements on the grounds that they may not align with practices at other studios within the group. The developers argue that this policy is unfair and should be applied equally, meaning that if one studio benefits from improvements, others should also be entitled to them.
Joining Forces with Greedfall 2 Developers
On September 2nd, Kylotonn joined the Greedfall 2 team in their protest against Nacon. By uniting with other developers, they hope to raise awareness of the issues facing the industry and force Nacon to address the concerns of its employees.
The Growing Movement for Fair Treatment
The strike by Kylotonn and the Greedfall 2 team is part of a larger movement within the French video game industry demanding fair treatment and working conditions. As more developers join the cause, the pressure on Nacon to make changes is increasing.
The decision by Kylotonn to support the strike against Nacon is a significant development in the ongoing struggle for fair treatment within the French video game industry. By uniting with other developers, Kylotonn is helping to raise awareness and demand change from the publisher.
