This included 51 employees who contributed to the game\u2019s diving sections at Ubisoft\u2019s Barcelona office, who are now campaigning for fair severance pay, arguing that what they were given was &#8220;below any reasonable standard.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/section>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Virginia (she\/her) is IGN\u2019s News Editor.
