Former Activision/Blizzard corporate mouthpiece Lulu Cheng Meservey came out swinging for Asha Sharma, because she too had zero gaming experience when she got hired by Blizzard.>Team Xbox — some are you are asking how much it matters that Asha doesn’t have gaming experience>Some thoughts since I’ve been there:>I had never worked in gaming when I joined Activision Blizzard’s board and later became CCO & EVP Corp Comms. And although I’d played games, I wasn’t very good>The learning curve was huge. I had to quickly understand the products and players. Gaming culture is unique, and it’s not just one culture! COD vs WOW have very different communities. Launching DIV was totally different from Overwatch work>Getting up to speed took a ton of listening and learning (often the hard way, because while you’re figuring things out you still have to Do Your Job). It involved visiting studios, DMing with streamers, talking to devs, and lots of reps getting absolutely murked in Modern Warfare II>Asha is smart, effective, and a fast learner. She has no ego, just wants to get the job done. Playing lots of games in a short period is her way of preparing as best she can, and she shouldn’t be put down for that>She’s determined to make Xbox the best it’s ever been, from the foundation built by Phil and Sarah and their team. If I could’ve stayed after our acquisition, I’d be super excited right now to work for Asha!

You guys realize the commissioners of the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL have never played a single match right?
>>733647960Damn, I didn't know that. They should resign immediately!
>>733647960There is no man i know that has never played basketball.
>>733647514I don't understand the argument she is making. Wouldn't it be better for all sides if she had actual prior gaming experience?
>>733647514>entire industry in a death spiral ever since they flooded it with women>"Look at the amazing job we're doing" - women with zero situational awareness
>>733647960And they're terrible fucking people who exist only to funnel as much money into owners' pockets as possible What did you think this argument proved lmao
>>733647514What's with every job now being "learn as you go" instead of "this is what is expected of you before you get hired"?No one pays an actor with the hope that they learn how to articulate/enunciate properly during the recording process.
>>733647514Hmm I wonder if key products like Overwatch and Call of Duty went into a death spiral under her leadership?
>>733648483>>733647514MAKE IT STOPMAKE IT STOPMAKE IT STOP
>>733647960Yeah but they're based, that's now the only legal way to own black people
