Don't forget Microsoft bought Activision just to fire Bobby Kotic and save all the female developers from his sexual wrath. Oh wait, Spencer and Kotic are BFFs and Kotic got a $400 million dollar retirement payout and sailed of happily into the sunset. LMFAO. also, Microsoft layed off 2000 employees from them, How many were victims of the harassment? Convenient way to get rid of future troubles.
Microsoft made the choice not us? Had she had a career of releasing awesome fucking AAA games. Nobody would be complaining about her. She does not have the experience to lead one of the most beloved studios of all time. Noticing her race, sex, ect is just a side effect of what people are noticing going on in corporate America.
Results matter. Have the resume to back it up, otherwise you are a puppet plant and need to gtfo.
DEI strikes again. Sofar absolutely nothing positive has come from this acquisition.
$100 DLC, so is that Microsoft's Idea? I thought Microsoft was supposed to save Blizzard?
I don't get the hate either, Nobody is forcing you to buy this thing. It has a specific use, and obviously there is a market for it.
The price point isn't even bad. They are done with the PSP so quit asking them to turn this thing into one.
I played Destiny 2 when it first came out and by the time the 2nd expansion came out I moved on to other things. Game is expensive as hell, and now 30 expansions later I don't know how much I'd even have to pay to start playing again today, so I don't even bother. Probably a lot of people feel this way.
Microsoft funded puff peice.
Consumer choice was dealt a huge blow today.
Epic put all their eggs in one basket with fortnite, they should have continued with the development of unreal tournament and got that game going as an arena shooter that's free to play with a huge cosmetic cash shop.
But your CEO knows what their doing.... laying off people so the board doesn't see exactly how much you stuck. The usual playbook.
Pirate the PC version day 1. Screw Microsoft.
But isn't that website full of product codes purchased from stolen credit cards? That's pretty shitty.
Sony needs to dump Jim Ryan ASAP. This Clown will only snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
In 10 years Microsoft will have run COD dead just like halo.. they are the New EA.
I didn't get BR vibes from that video at all.
To me maybe action RPG, or RTS. I'd be happy with an action RPG.
Which brings us back to the FTC is incompetent argument .
Who in their right mind would allow a judge to rule on this with an absolutely glaring conflict of interest? Microsoft knew the fix was in. Do you think it's coincidence this very judge got the case? What are the odds? Microsoft paid off the right people.
Playstation gamers got screwed. But it is supposedly a "consumer friendly" merger...
And don't came at me with one off exclusives, this is entire publishers being bought up, it doesn't compare, this is unprecedented.
Is this the judge who's son works for Microsoft? Justice is funny in our banna republic....
Track record. Microsofts isn't good.
Microsoft isn't doing any of that, they've bungled the ownership of every studio they've acquired so far, why all the sudden would Activision Blizzard flourish under Microsofts ownership??
What company has Microsoft lit a fire under?? Not a single one.
PR stunt? Bro they are getting very bad PR right now, from their hardcore supporters. This is a mistake if that's the case. He could have easily denied it all, but he didn't, that means something is true, How much? We'll see next week.
His message is an admission that something is up.
