    it’s clear that nobody knew who the fuck he was before this thread and suddenly everybody is trying to spin a story

      Claude was a director and deputy CEO. He was on the board. He was directly involved in the technical and business management side for years. Calling him just a stakeholder undercuts his own opinion on what he did at Ubisoft as he expressed in a few interviews himself throughout the years.

      Just because you didn’t know who he was doesn’t mean the rest of us didn’t. Yes Yves was the face and CEO, and thus the person directly named in the lawsuit because that’s how it works, but Claude was often cited as the quiet force behind Yves anchoring him, serving as operations officer, advisor, and other titles over time.
