The news since yesterday is that the acquisition of Activision-Blizzard-King by Microsoft is a done deal!
The even bigger news, is that instead of being burdened with Bobby Kotick, the living scourge of gaming, for another year as was originally hinted, he was "offered to stay until the end of 2023".
When 2024 comes we will have another reason to celebrate!
Oh no this man is drinking breastmilk while I am incapable of doing so myself. SOMEONE FIRE THIS MAN RIGHT THIS INSTANCE!
Now you're just blatantly accusing him of things he had nothing to do with. Not very credible accusations if you can't even think of a single bad thing :)
It was really just meant as a goofy joke friend :)
It IS however still related to the allegations pointed at Kotick, specifically for the work environment that he did not just take over from Blizzard, but also co-created himself. I could have ranted about the alleged threads and aggressive statements he made towards his staff, but I don't think that's why either of us is here. The breast milk story is for me, just too funny to not be the highlight ;)
For the people here who hate Kotick, I think he just became the person they like to blame for the business practice that has become growingly profound at Blizzard in the last 10+ years. As the CEO, he also deserves to be attributed a large part, even thou I doubt that the next one will be worlds apart. Laying off 800 people when you have record high revenues, while still pulling in 1,75 million for yourself is never a very flattering gesture. The last iterations of Diablo have disappointed many fans and many blame the modern day gaming economy for it. Bobby or not, people are pissed :)
Oh no this man has sex with women while I am incapable of doing so myself. SOMEONE FIRE THIS MAN RIGHT THIS INSTANCE!
Oh no, this man is responsible for every decision that ruined our favourite games, drove passionate developers away from the company and nearly destroyed it, because his golden parachute was just too expensive.
Oh no, this man only cared about short term gains in order to appear useful without caring if he would drive the company and it's games to the ground.
Just because you're not getting any doesn't mean everything is related to that.

I'll fix that for you ;)
