Like many video games, massively multiplayer online role playing game World of Warcraft features in-game paintings and artwork in order to build out the flavor of the game’s world. Some of them are references to real world paintings, some are landscapes, some are still lives. Additionally, some of them are horny, like a portrait of a woman wearing a really strange dress with a plunging neckline.

Managers set the tone by hiring mostly men, stoking their egos and dating women in the company, current and former employees said.

Un long article truffé de témoignages d’inconduites professionnelles allant de la discrimination au harcèlement sexuel au ton misogyne au sein d’Activision Blizzard, le tout étalé sur de nombreuses années, témoignant d’un problème profondément ancré au sein de l’entreprise.

A group of Activision Blizzard employees calling itself the ABK Workers Alliance has rejected the company’s decision to employ the law firm WilmerHale to conduct a review of the company’s policies and procedures. In a letter shared with IGN, the group told CEO Bobby Kotick that his delayed response to employees following a lawsuit alleging widespread sexual harassment and discrimination at the company “did not meaningfully address” employee demands, and that WinterHale’s pre-existing relationship with Activision creates a conflict of interest that means it cannot conduct an impartial review.

On July 28, hundreds of Activision Blizzard employees gathered at the gates of Blizzard’s campus under the hot Irvine, California sun. Many were seeing each other for the first time in months. Many others were meeting for the first time, having been brought together by what has become an extraordinary week of direct action.

Throughout that week, IGN has spoken to seven past and present Activision Blizzard employees, building a clearer picture not just of its deeply troubled working culture, but the immediate aftermath of that culture becoming public – and how those at the company have organised to try and effect positive change amid worldwide outrage.

Since news broke last week of widespread allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination at Activision Blizzard via a legal complaint from the state of California, many top male developers there, both current and former, have responded with shock and dismay.

Here’s a 2010 Blizzcon panel in which a fan was brave enough to ask a panel full of men, including J. Allen Brack (left) & Alex Afrasiabi (right) whether there’s scope for some of WoW’s female characters to be less sexualised

“I personally have a lot of emotions coming out of yesterday, and I know you do, too. The allegations and the hurt of current and former emails are extremely troubling,” writes Brack. “I know many of you would like to receive more clarity. While I can’t comment on the specifics of the case as it’s an open investigation, what I can say is that the behavior detailed in the allegations is completely unacceptable.”
