A blatant reminder that the AAA games industry is broken and that we need better labour laws not only in Indonesia but across the globe: People Make Games' latest video on the Brandoville abuse reports: youtu.be/RR9HQ2C6h_4?...
PMG's video thumbnail for the most recent investigation, showing an illustrated representation of Christa Sydney slapping her own face.
What we found was one of the very worst examples of workplace abuse in the history of this industry. That may sound hyperbolic. I really don't think it is.
Here's our investigation:

The video thumbnail for PMG's original documentary, showing a white, American hand clasping cash in exchange for the labour of a Southeast Asian workforce, represented here as being weighed down by their immense workload.
Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia.
Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

It's "video game history is too USA-centric" discourse, so let me post four stills from SE Asia games in case they might arouse the curiosity of any inquisitive foreigner.
The event page for Southeast Asia Games Onward 2024 on IGDB with 222 games being showcased; TCG Card Shop Simulator and Threads of You: Beyond the Sky are shown at the top of the list with their respective trailers, and the options "Want", "Playing", and "Played" is shown on the right side of the list.
A bit late but happy to say that the @seagamethetic.bsky.social @virtualseasia.com's Southeast Asia Games Onward 2024 event page is now live on @igdb.com! #SEAGO
