Heads need to roll for this. Complete leadership change.
The only way to make heads roll is a mass boycott of Ubisoft games and hurting their bottom line hard. The Guillemot family is well insulated at the top of Ubi and I can't see him stepping down unless tons of stories start coming out about him directly, and even then I'm not sure.
The shitty thing about hitting Ubisoft where it financially hurts is that:
A) it's hard to do and hard to keep up as a collective
B) The lower level Ubi employees, many of which who are completely disgusted by this or speaking out right now, are the ones that would feel the crunch first.
We could name the Ubi presentation thread here "Company with 100+ harassment claims announces some stuff" and I still don't think that would have a dent in things".
What I think we need to do, at the very least, is have a stickied thread that tracks these claims, the bullshit that CDPR has been doing, the Insomniac story, the Microsoft Mixer story, even the Naughty Dog crunch in an effort to make sure that people are informed about the companies they are buying from. I think the most we can do is create informed consumers and demand change, even if we don't directly have the power to cause that change.
Anyways, thats my 2 cents.
Edit: Also, any journalists that interview any of these companies need to keep the pressure up and make sure the companies talk about and walk them through how they are changing. Many journalists will be afraid to lose their access to PR/early review copies but the ones that aren't really have to hold these companies to task.
