So Blizzard is back on track now right?
Blizzard did nothing wrong
>>744715449just because the women and troons who infest a company lie for attention doesn't mean they don't also ruin the company for attention
>>744715476>Blizzard did nothing wrongThey ripped off Warhammer and have never made a single original game. No, they didn't even develop Diablo, they bought the dev that made it.
>>744715449back on track to bankrupcy lmao
My negro that is positively outrageous. But I do not recall inquiring.
can we change his name back to mcree thenAlso once again FUCK FOIDS. Never hire women
It was always bullshit. They fired Alex Afrasiabi because he touched the breast of his own girlfriend at a fucking office party. It might be trashy, but he literally got fired for that.
>>744715449Only if they rehire all the people they fired and reverse decisions while the people pushing the lies gain control of the company.
>>744715449>So Blizzard is back on track now right?It is extremely easy to tell when a company is doomed because they hired Indians, promoted them to managerial positions, and then these new managers hire exclusively Indians and takeover the company.Believe it or not, but the exact same process happens by introduction of people who are called "leftist"/"woke"/"progressive", it's just a bit harder to tell it just by employee photos. Blizzard is dead, has been dead for a long time, and there is no possibility for them to ever go back.
>>744715998happening all over the world rn sadly
>>744715449>a studio made up of fat nerds who probably haven't seen a naked women without the aid of a screen for 30 years>frat boy cultureIt was always dubious at best. The milk theft probably happened though, no pussy will turn men into creepy freaks.
>>744716017This is why you build your own buisness or die with the rest. Indians and AI will replace you 100%.
>>744716067They haven't replace boby cockdick
>>744715980>Only if they rehire all the people they firedIt's impossible to revert the time.If they fired a 40-yo man working on bleeding edge projects in a top-class company they can only rehire a 50-yo man working on slop in a mediocre company.
>>744715449I've been saying this since the very start, and not just Blizzard, but Riot games too, and pretty much the entire industry.Is it a coincidence that all of a sudden mutt lesbian bull dykes and the Woke crowd get hired for diversity quotas, and that number keeps building, they see normal white people in charge and it makes them seethe. So many of them got hired, and now they have numbers, and they all back each other's lies up. Right at the height of the #MeToo and #BelieveAllWomen movements. Curious that it all happens at once, isn't it?The psychological effect of that is, as a man, you have to leave the company. Because if you get accused of sexual misconduct, you might never work again. Anywhere.And this is how we got teams of incompetent fat n'ugly women working on games they hate, for an audience they hate. Because corporate still wants their franchises.
>>744715449Actually if they DIDN'T have a frat boy culture, then yes they did do something wrong
>>744716093>They haven't replaced boby cockdickUmm, Anon, you might need to check his Early Life section to understand why.
>>744716114>It's impossible to revert the time.Tragic lies brought down the entire company, by pushing out the very last talented devs they had.Office politics what a sight.
>>744715839this. and make soldier 76 straight.
>>744715449lol no, the people they fired were responsible for wow being shit in the first place
>>744715449brother, they all pretty much came out and straight up admitted it publiclywhy the fuck are people defending blizzard of all things now?
>>744716049It may as well have been another woman stealing it for her baby because she doesn't produce much milk herself, the problem is that they immediately resort to muh men bad and stop there.
>>744716194>Tragic lies brought down the entire company, by pushing out the very last talented devs they had.Nigger please, they weren't talented at all. Blizzard lost its talent before vanilla wow even released.
Whooooa, hey. You hire a bunch of piranhas who hate you, and want to devour you, because the political system you align with says piranhas are awesome? And whoa, whaaaaaat, the piranhas eventually chew you to the bone?
>>744715449congrats, i don't want to touch any blizzard's product or game.
>>744715449I choose to believe in breast milk bandit because it's funny.
>>744716253A woman would sooner feed their baby formula than tacitly admit by theft that another woman is better at child rearing because they lactate more.Women are that petty.
>>744716194That's from 2021, Blizz was long gone by then
>>744715839What's M.C. REEE's name now?
>>744715449Maybe now you'll realize that all of the anti-blizzard propaganda was done entirely by FFtroons
>>744715449>>744716139>Merge with activision>CEOs encourage a massive DEI and inclusivity hiring scheme>Years later Activision/Blizzard has had the most sexual misconduct lawsuits filed against it and its employees in modern history.>All old-hat employees either left or were forced out.>All modern blizzard projects are complete failuresBlizzard is a textbook example of workplace culture poisoning.
>>744716368coal kennedy or some shit like that dunno you get banned for calling him mcree in voice btw lol
>>744716402No, anti blizzard propaganda was done by people who had the misfortune of being their fans once.
>>744715449>>744715476Soooooooooooo no cubicle crawls, no rapes, no sexism, no misogyny, nothing? What the fuck did they get kicked out of the company then? Just "trust whamyn"? That's it?Back then i knew that computer nerds don't get handsy with women, because they're fucking nerds and yet they still got whacked which lends credence to this post on mmo-c. The parasites got their hands on the whole thing through subterfuge and sabotage. Would be highly ironic if Kotick was also a good guy in this, because it would cement HR department as the cancer that desperately needs chemo. Total HR department genocide.
>>744715476retard, that says there was no improper handling regarding the workplace misconduct by their superiors, it literally aknowledges that there was workplace misconduct, it just says there's no evidence that bobby and clique tried to hide or ignore itlearn to read please, holy illiterates
>>744716405The perfect visual example I've found is to look at Deathwing from Cataclysm. Then look at any dragon from Dragonflight.That right there can tell you all you need to know.
jason schreier caught lying again and idiots are still going to listen to his "news" lmao
wow died the moment they had that mister t commercial
>>744716479>Kotick was the good guyKill yourself
>>744715724>They ripped off WarhammerBy having orcs?
>>744716448wut why
>>744716174Qrd? Bobby cock-n-dick was a jeet?
>>744715449No. These retarded commies were used to get rid of the old guard, but removing them doesnt mean that the talented people will return.The vacuum will probably get filled with jeets and malaysians working for a penny.Also here's an interesting interview with Kotick after all this.https://x.com/RazorFist/status/2084394525565526215Looks like corpos were blindsided by all this and that it was a push from government.So yeah, things might get less pozzed, but I doubt that there will be any quality in the forseeable future.
>>744715449Blizzard went to shit waaaay before this shit started getting thrown around but I still want this xitter post to be true because it would be hard evidence that HR departments everywhere should be axed and that they were never really needed in the first place. Also that pretty much every civilization in history were right to never trust women at their word and to treat them all like spoiled children that harbors murderous intent.
>>744716562that guy is so obviously jewish I don't understand how people even bother to pay attention to anything it says
>>744716626because he's literally a rapist anon (not proven)
>>744716662retards here still read and post gaming site dogshit.so stupid after all these years.
>>744716673isnt he a fictional character?
>>744715449>IS BLIZZARD BACK ON TRACK!no, all of the people who was a part of what made the studio got rail roaded out of a job and black listed, its over.I worked at Blizzard for 3 years, you think its the concept artists who are pushing for the cutesy shit? No, its the higher ups, a fat bitch in HR telling you to make the women less curvy or your fired. I quit, went to work for a movie studio doing animation work instead, now I just do porn because fuck all of this shit.Least the perv wanting Asari futa dick porn pays me more then Blizzard ever did and all I gotta do is make the ropes of cum thicker and more explosive.
>>744716695no he was named after some guy in the office. Torbjorn too
>>744716174Kotick is a jew but he's literally always been right when it comes to vidya. He's one of the best ones and we need more jews like him. Only paleswine disagree.
>>744716723we dont need more like him because he was one of the main engineers of the current cancer AAA landscape.
>>744715449is that about the milk thief controversy? Who gives a shit, that guy was based. Women are so KWABmaxxing and pathologically obsessed with attention that they start coming up with endless bullshit and KWABmaxxed simps (male normalfags) believe them. Letting the normalfag egregore infect and infest gaming was a huge mistake, bros.
>>744716579If he's responsible for hiring the people who destroyed blizzard, he's the bad guy. If he didn't do anything and was ousted as a result of HR getting their hands on power, then he's the good guy. It's pretty simple. Don't forget that Blizzard themselves fired all the devs who worked on vanilla WoW after or just before the game released back in 2004. Kotick wasn't there back then, he came later in 2008.
>>744716756If we had listened to him and only him we would've truly had great AAA games.
>>744716405Yeah, Blizzard and the Skullgirls studio both should act as cautionary tales on how not to handle office politics and why power shouldn't be given based on how "oppressed" someone is but how well they can actually do their jobs and handle the responsibility of it.
>>744716826>Skullgirls studioqrd?
>>744715498
it was like the fake college rape crisis of the 2010men (white) were literally hunted on campus over false allegations and made out to be monsters without one shred of evidence
>>744716859a guy who made hentai flash on newgrounds
>>744715724Blizzard were making a Warhammer have, but GW pulled the plug and it turned into StarCraft
>>744716250They're literal paypigs, it's in their nature.
>Cosby room was fake>breast milk bandito was fake
>>744715498>>744716874sorry anon, I misread your post and now I can't fucking delete my reply for some reason.
>>744716801no we really wouldnt have because he started the churn of getting rid of talented people to replace them with cheaper workers.this opened an easy attack vector for these commie activist types who work for a penny as long as they get to shit up culture. and now the churn is moving beyond them and its going to be all jeets working for a fraction of a penny.
>>744716859The two head honchos that essentially created Skullgirls almost on their own hired other artists, coders, etc to help them grow their studio and to create more games and dlc. What ended up happening is that most of the people they hired used straight up lies about the two OGs to get them kicked out of their own company, one of the guys even won a lawsuit against them and walked off with a lot of money on "wrongful termination" or something like that. Afterwards the studio crashed and burned because the nutjobs that remained simply lacked the talent and the drive to actually make a good game, all they ended up doing was censoring the game (which was known to be raunchy and even used it as a selling point), add SJW bullshit into it and making it even buggier than it was at release.
>>744717054It's annoying to read your Yale thing text.Use smaller words next time.
>breast milk bandit was a lie
>>744717207nigger brain
>>744717268It's better to be a nigger than a gaylord university professor like you.
>>744717298no
>>744715449This news is still not big enough. This is just a hostile takeover with the guise as if it was all legal.Every time some shit happens to wokeshitters benefits it seems it is made out of a lie.Heads should roll for this. I do not see the old Blizzard ever returning but i want people to see how far these troons are willing to go and actually get punished for it.
>>744717332You're the dawg know man!
>>744716621I think he means Starcraft being a WH40k ripoff.
>>744717350its an actual conspiracy and its coming from the government.California was behind the lawsuit.none of this is organic.
The whole thing was clearly orchestrated by Microsoft to tank the share price in the build up to them making a move to acquire Activison Blizzard.
>>744717209>defending grummz
WoW went to shit a long time ago, but it was still something I could revisit every once in a while to enjoy the world and level my old characters for a bit. But after this shit happened, and the faggots took over: censoring shit, ruining the tone of the world, and just adding tons of actual gay shit; it finally killed the game completely for me. The fact that all happened based on a complete lie and the game will never recover from it is pretty well, gay.
>>744717350Jhony Deep managed to win a lawsuit, was streamed and was big news, gues what, he got NOTHING back, no role, no compesation, no apology, NOTHING
>>744717472he got a shit stained mattress (this is a bad thing)
>>744717518one mans trash is another mans soap.
>>744715476Blizzard has done a lot wrong. They've been making nothing but faggot games for over 20 years.
>>744715476>>744715449If they did nothing wrong, why didn't they try to fight the accusations at all and instead admitted it and paid over 18 million in fines? They have money for lawyers.
>>744716657>commiesis that now back in style?

>>744717713>Y'allKill yourselfStopped reading there
>>744717713Also to top it all off, this settlement was from December 2023. The gamer right-wing is heating up stuff from almost 3 years ago and acting outraged about it.

Is this really surprising to anyone? The whole thing seemed sketchy as fuck. Felt coordinated.
>>744717863its another "woman and troons are ruining videogames" episodesince 2021 this shit has been going on
>>744717631Whenever any shit about modern western devs gets exposed there's always a common denominator.I dont even know what the point of your kayfabe is. They are open about it.
>>744717401lol, 40k was a rip off of basically every Scfi and fantasy franchise up to that point. It’s got Elric, Dune, Starship troopers, Tolkien, Alien, judge dredd, terminator, Mad Max.
It is a good thing that the common census is slowly shifting to that listening to women is never good and that there was a reason that every civilisation for 99,99% of human history on each corner of the world has treated them as second class citizens.

>>744717656It's even funnier than that, the artist that worked on the game was Zone(-sama). If you've been around long enough then you should know how fucking funny it is that the SJW types were attracted to this game like flies are attracted to shit.

Blizzard decides to rip it off with Overwatch with the most generic character roster ever made (you only remember the female characters because of porn)>Dota 2, originally based on a warcraft mod, is supported by Valve - Blizzard decides to make Heroes of the Dogshit Storm which is a compete and utter failure>Hearthstone is just a rip off of Magic the Gathering OnlineI pity Blizzardfags and their never ending suffering.
>"ACKshually poor little blizzy did NOTHING wrong it was all lies by evil leftist Californias">Activision-Blizzard admitted to all accusations and paid massive million dollar fines and fired half their senior staff as penance.Curious behaviour for a company that dindu nuffin and definitely have the money and lawyers for an anti-defamation counter-lawsuit.
>>744717929Leftoid commies are not even real slavoid/chinkoid commies. Its like those retards that dress in black and wear pentagram necklaces and pretend they're satanists because they listen to metal music.
>>744715449Never EVER let women work at your company. EVER.
>>744715449so what?if they made WC4 RTS that was actually good, I'd buy and play even if those allegations were true and only a tip of an iceberg.
>>744718280its the gay nerds out of academia, which were the same who influenced russia and china.the stalin types come later.
>>744718295You mean never let evil women who hate video games and only got a computer science degree because "it's the future" join the company.
>>744717929Rightoid liberal commies are the worst

>>744715839I still don't know the new name and the majority of people still call him McCree.
>>744715449When are they going to sue that dirty rat kike Schreier?

What about Bill Cosby room?
>>744718493Fake, women made it up.So was the breast milk bandit.
>>744718348Slavoid and Chinkoid commoids are basically the result of fascists puppets being propped up by Zionists. The guy who tried to kill the 2nd to last Russian emperor was the cousin of Marx. Then the Bolshevik commies ended the Imperial Russian bloodline soon after. Quite honestly the worst governmental disaster to ever happen to Eastern Europe and Asia. Like the only reason we dont have flying cars and colonies on the moon is because the western democratic powers had to fend off commie rats for decades.

>>744718554Be my foid please
you mean to tell me that the tales of the breast milk brotherhood, the mommy milker marauders, the titty tasting terrorizers, the big natural knock backers, the sweater puppy swiggers was all bullshit?
>milk thief wasn't realAnd just like that I lost last remnants of respect for Blizzard.
>>744718480He should be hanged, the jew rat set a precedent that allowed shit to get worse. This is almost on par as Anita.
>>744718493>>744718523bill cosby room is real. but its just a funny room at the blizzcon venue where the carpet looks like the cosby sweater.picture was made before cosby was accused of anything.
It's bizzare that Shrier has an image of a dev-supporting journo while also harrassing devs left and right. Mostly to the right of him.
>>744715449>>744715476So they're restoring the censored emotes, paintings, quests, npcs names, and even entire fucking zones, removing all the LGBTQ+ characters and dialog, and all that other shit that spanned two entire expansions I'm forgetting they did to save face to the insane lefties right?...right?
>>744718428The majority of people don't call him anything because they don't play overwatch and have no idea who it is and don't care. You can't even goon to him like the brown haired skinny dyke one.

>>744718568I yainte a gayeoid.
>>744718525>western democratic powers had to fend off commie rats for decades.lmao you mean the western jew-controlled states fought the eastern jew-controlled states for decades
i hope blizzard is forever remembered as the company of breastmilk thieves, just like how they cut contact with kael'thas's original VA even after his allegations were proven falsebelieve women? more like believe women are always lying for clout
>>744718948>He doesnt know about all the Nazis and Commies that infiltrated America in the 50s>He doesn't know that Russia and China would love to annex Europe and the Americas>He doesn't know about the Chinese colonization of Africa>He doesn't know about the Chinese and Russian immigration in California and Canada>Nations like Australia are already overflowing with Chinese communists>He doesn't know that Zionoids created a monster that they can no longer control and that's why Is Real has been on damage controlIf only u knew how bad things really are.
The whole thing felt to orchestrated. Too much women, Schreier knew it for too long, the whole LGBT twitter Freaks like Portergauge, etc.
>>744719054>more like believe women are always lying for clouti'd venture a step further and say >believe all women should be kept barefoot and pregnant at home with zero rights and can't leave home without a familial escort
>>744719073Didn't that game journo hack say that he knew about serious abuse but he didn't publish anything because he was waiting for the game to out so he could play it first?
i really don't give a shiti'm still not giving a red cent or MAU to this completely compromised subsidiary of activision microsoft skinwalking as blizzard
>>744719073Doesn't really matter does it? Blizzard was already shit and dead by the time it happened. People seem to completely forget this but if anything, they thought the accusations and firings would be some kind of redemption arc and everyone would love them again for being brave enough to throw out the people who fucked all their franchises to death.
>>744719073>>744719159this. I still believe Portergauge isn't real and just a persona of some tranny working at blizzard.
>>744717631Every time anons on /v/ get close to realizing that maybe for-profit vidya development spearheaded by men in suits with no videogame experience has been a really bad thing for the videogame industry worse than anything else they immediately steer into either blaming jews or blaming the woke left like a shock collar being activated after detecting a thoughtcrime

>>744716519You think these people have patience to read past first line?
Here's something a little more substantial than a twitter post https://www.city-journal.org/article/california-civil-rights-department-activision-kevin-kish that delves into a lot of this stuff.
>>744719245He is just a head shill doing it for free. Just like Taliesin & Evitel and Bellular. They just pretendhype on everything Blizzard releases while you hear the closet on the background buckle from the skeletons."Ayuuuuk- they released this new mount recolour you should farm! Oggggh- They announced a new zone with nothing in it. Blizzard is back!
>>744719356it's a pavlovian trigger that has been instilled from a very early agecompletely irreversible for the inculcated
>>744719356>men in suits with no videogame experienceAnon, these are the Jews.
No one cares about any of that. Blizzard is shit because they purged good people and replaced then with retards. Due to corporate greed. It's over.
>>744719356do you honestly think you're fooling anyone when you deny reality like that.
>>744719356what did corporate greed have to do with censoring a truckload of quests with adult innuendo? get over yourself faggot
>>744717728and it never went out of style. if you were going to roleplay as an adult at least use an actual archaic term like pinko.
>>744720203commie is a boring slur
>>744715449Still filled with women and fags who aren't interested in making good video games so no. The only thing that could save them is going out of business.
How do we go back to the good old days o videogamesWhere fat neckbeards made games

>>744719356>>744719951>we dindu nuffin>t. leftniggers
>>744715449Why didn't they say anything though? Why didn't any of the devs say they were lying when everything happened?
fuck blizzard

>>744720246There are still virile hotblooded neanderthals in this world
has he completed his trannysistion yet?
>>744715449Too late. Blizzard is still damaged. Broken. Shattered.It will only be fixed if they fire all the DEI hires and activists, hire people with actual talent and skills, and fix their damn IPs.But even then it's too late.>>744715724No stupid. They acquired the rights to make a game, but they didn't create a game yet in the Warhammer setting (partially due to GW). So they didn't want it to go to waste, so they made their own fantasy setting. Again, they didn't even start making a WHFB game. They only acquired the rights to making a game in this setting.In case of StarCraft, most people at Blizzard didn't knew about 40K. Even then calling StarCraft a 40K ripoff is pure retardation since, like 40K, it took inspirations from other settings.
>>744720430>slop
>>744719065I already knew about all that shit though? just don't like you pretending it's not all the fault of the jewsalso don't use retarded words like zionists or commies, it's all jews, they're all going to get the rope, not a single jew can be allowed to live

>>744719951I don't think it's irreversible, people just need to play more vidya most of the time to notice the pattern of "good games are being shoved aside in favor of slop" or spend less time on social media so they don't get ragebaited into uninformed opinions>>744719958It's not ideal to call someone a jew just because they're greedy, it dilutes the term and also makes you look bad to normalfags and uninformed to people who played a ton of vidya. For all the jew hate on /v/ people can barely name the jewish executives and CEOs, I only really see Bobby Kotick being mentioned most of the time. Most of the industry greed is from non-jew businessmen who extract a ton of profit out of people's pockets and then they're like "oh no we gave ourselves such a huge amount of money we have to fire the programmers that made our games" and the games are so wildly profitable they can get away with sabotaging themselves like that and still looking good to investors. The wave of big budget flop games like Concord came from businessmen who treated vidya as an "insert money, get more money" apparatus thinking that they had perfected the formula in such a way that it's effectively guaranteed sales, treating videogame development like blockbusters even though one of the first rules of investment is to not have all of your eggs in one basket. Lots of studios that got bought out over the years and then their games either got worse or the employees were forced to work on the profitable slop. Lots of ruined franchises. Lots of /v/ threads laughing at cherrypicked tweets from a handful of programmers (out of hundreds) that said BLM years ago. Shock collar>>744720165Wasn't that part of trying to clean their image in a superficial way and saying "hey we're NOT morally bankrupt please don't quit our games because of the sexual harassment, look we changed a character's name and made spitting a consensual action we're the good guys", it's been a while since I looked into that drama
>>744720719Being this blatantly dishonest is pretty impressive.
>>744720719what was the perfected formula they were using to develop concord?
>>744719391Nae.>>744720465>Starcraft didn't steal the fuck huge 40k armor marinesFuck off.>>744720516You can be a Zionist without being a Jew. See: Donald Trump.
>>744719356you can pull this dogshit gaslighting when you preach to the choir on troonsky, but not here.
>>744720719>It's not idealwhat a counter-argument
>>744720942You fuck off dipshit. Massive pauldrons are not exclusive to Space Marines and the ones Terran Marines had initially weren't like they are now.Not to mention Judge Dredd had massive pauldrons before Space Marines, hence Space Marines rip-off Judge Dredd. So fuck off you ignorant dipshit because the world doesn't revolve around 40K.
>>744715449>So Blizzard is back on track now right?hahahaha
>>744720638They are so transparent.
Who cares about Blizzard. They don't even make games anymore. They make weird fetish propaganda disguised as a game for trans people.
>>744715449>>744715476BELIEVE ALL WOMEN
Blizzard capitulated to this shit and are still producing absolute garbage. All the characters are females and the men are all pathetic losers. The only people still using chat in game are genuinely mentally retarded. They can't keep the servers up. Servers costs 6 cents per month and they still take them down weekly to cut costs a few hours.
>>744718250>miserable fags weasel in, want to take over>cant get rid of the old guard>coincidentally microshit wants to buyout but wants to pay less>conjure up fake accusations>use the smoke and mirrors to push the old guard out and tank the buyout price>parasites happy>company ruined forever but oh well they don't mind ruling over the ashes because they're retardedit's not that hard to grasp
>>744719356Reggie worked for a Pizza company, said my body is ready and miyamoto only hires people that never played video games, this is all great. Stfu, okay?
>>744715476bobby literally threatened to have his secretary murderedhe can just afford the most expensive lawyers
>>744721331>2026>people are still whining about the same weekly maintenance they've been doing for the past two decades
>>744721373Source.
>>744721373>bobby literally threatened to have his secretary murderedSource me up homes
>>744720836I don't think trolling is good when there are anons who genuinely believe the suits in vidya companies are good guys compared to the employees they hire that do all the actual vidya-making you know.>>744720925Hero shooter that they'd make money back from via live service microtransactions or turn into a big monetized franchise, though I assume this was before the game's development costs ballooned to "how the fuck are we going to make our money back" levels at which point it was mostly sunken cost with a dash of "maybe lots of people will play it", the game's development was very long and the development started when hero shooters were still hot IIRC, but they were bought out by Sony much later. I don't know what the fuck they were thinking with the 40$ price tag when the most popular hero shooters were either free or cheaper, but I guess they can't think much about it when they have no idea about the industry, and when that much money is involved nobody really wants to be the one to tell the boss "this was a bad idea" except in hindsight. I guess they immediately figured the game was unsalvageable when they saw the lackluster player numbers.
>>744715449Wait until you find out it was all lies like this.Wait until you find out they invented HR to do exactly this.Wait until you find out it was these kinds of demons wearing human skin, these were the ones calling you unemployable basement dwellers.All the good devs have left because of this and games have gone to shit.Because it got co-opted by the unemployable unless they strongarm you into employing them.But now, companies have had enough, and they're laying them off en masse. And they're super mad about it.Stay mad.I'll never not be mad about them ruining games for me.
>>744721486which hero shooters are actually popular outside of overwatch? in what world is a genre with a grand total of 3 known games a perfect moneymaking formula?
>>744721707marvel rivals
>>744721726isn't that a fucking moba?
>>744721748its literally overwatch but marvel
I logged in, got in game, map slow to open then disconnected.
>>744721707There's Apex Legends, Marvel Rivals (that came out the same year as Concord but did much better because it was free), Valorant, Overwatch and Paladins and 3 of them were hugely popular at the time so they must've seen it as a good genre to invest in even though nowadays players are torn between a ton of live service games trying to get their playtime in general, not just hero shooters. There was also Highguard more recently but it was one of those big budget flops.
>>744717946You mean all the civilizations that failed?
>>744715449>blizzard fired hundreds of people to cover their ass.>...But im sure the allegations were fakeGod, you people are retarded.
>>744715449Fuck no, it needs to be burnt and start over without the mentally ill people.
>>744715449Well I hate blizzard so it was still funny as fuck.
>>744715449>So Blizzard is back on track now right?I don't think they fired all femoids and basedlennial
>>744715476so leftists really are evil dishonest demons dead set on ruining everything good?
>>744715449>>744715476I just want to say that I called this shit way before everyone else.Don't forget that barely a year prior to all of these allegations, George Soros invested bigly into the company.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsqmU3v0hVA
>>744718237Heroes of the Storm was killed mostly by Blizzard forcing esports autism into it when it had a good niche as the best casual moba on the market, mainly because they were scared shitless of another Starcraft scenario.
>>744722781>You mean all the civilizations that decided that giving women rights might be a good idea and promptly failed?FTFY
>>744715449not until they make a good game.
>>744715449>women make something up>oops lol guess it was fake oh well, it's been too long now to do anything *shrug*>nothing changesKill all simps who enable this behavior and never hire women.
>>744723169No? 99.9% of failed civilizations did not give women rights.
A message, hidden in IV.
>>744719356>Retard anon doesn't read the report of the investigation>Findings that the allegations were a push from an outside party that wanted to remove the veterans of Blizzard as the outside party saw they were standing in the way of their political ideology that they wanted to use the game's platform to push>Literal findings of the investigation outlines it in black and white the old guard did nothing wrong, that it was a by the book subversive take-over by a hostile political interest group>Retard anon who didn't read the report>"NO IT WASN'T WHAT THE REPORT OUTLINED IT WAS THIS OTHER SET OF PEOPLE WHO HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, BECAUSE IF YOU ADMIT TO WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IT MAKES MY POLITICAL TEAM LOOK REALLY BAD!You're a fucking faggot dude. Shut up.
>>744723049So it seems..So it seems..
>>744715449That's just an autopsy my friend, Blizzard is dead.
>>744723420None of that is in the report
>>744723420>Shill for ceo>blame developers,>make shit upRight wing invader. Suits are the issue.
>>744723049is it already that period in time where republicans and democrats flip their ideology?
>>744723420A link would be nice.
>>7447236481/4 of the retards itt are still playing classic and making excuses about how it's totally different from playing retoilet and not actually supporting blizzard but pop off sis
>>744723721The same dev team that willingly removed content from the game you retarded gorilla black niggerhttps://www.icy-veins.com/forums/topic/61247-an-extensive-list-of-removed-flirts-and-jokes-in-patch-915/
>>744715449No, just let them die. Blizzard became trash after MoP and Diablo 3 dealt the killing blow
>>744723915They did this because the executives wanted to cover their ass. Clearly, it worked.
>>744724013Shut the fuck up, retard.
>>744723835are you suggesting because the devs are the same playing unaltered classic is somehow equivalent to playing retail? in one they have full control in the other they fear the 40 year old classic nerd who will @ them on twitter and call them a nigger
>>744715449>So Blizzard is back on track now right?no this was used to push troons, feminists dei into their company it was over at this point, they hired consultants so this would never happen again and they hired dei compliant hiring practices etc so they cant be sued they paid millions for this to go away its a blackmail scheme on companies and they fall for it EVERY SINGLE TIME
>>744724094>unaltered classicno such thing
>>744723265Kek
>>744715449So ar they going to gape that kike Shrierer or whatever his name is for defamation? He literally was riding on that shit for over a year and sold book with claim about this too.
>>744715449I said this day 1 the news broke, it sounded like a SJW wet fantasy. Knew it was total commie bullshit tactics.But everyone is a wine aunt these days and slurped that shit up
>>744723791You window licking Spacka.
>>744719356>they immediately steer into either blaming jews or blaming the woke left like a shock collar being activated after detecting a thoughtcrime>it was good ole' christian church on sunday "christ is lord" types who brought blizzard down, not leftist trannies and feminists who made up the misogyny and sexism fiascoHow you manage to type this shit out with not a lick of irony is beyond me. You're a true believer. I envy you.
beat and rape womengas the jewssimple
>>744724094>unaltered classic>look inside>body type 1/2>removed emotes>censored voiced emotes>censored questsHow much is Shartzzard paying you to spout lies?
>>744716564No, it was still fun then. And I was there at the beginning. Wasn't long after tho.
>>744724284I already did and nothing came up with the keywords "2026 activision blizzard lawsuit" and such, the Wikipedia article had one edit that got reverted because it didn't have a source, that's why I posted that.
>>744721060>He thinks this shit isn't a straight fucking rip off of Warhammer 40k>He thinks this shit is somehow inspired by Judge DreddLmao Blizzfags are so fucking pathetic. LOL. Warcraft was already a rip off of Warhammer and you think Blizzard wouldn't double down and take Games Workshop's other IP? HAHHAHAHA. Bro I don't even give a fuck about 40k, I'm just pointing it out.
Blizzard needs to be studied because their downfall has to be one of the biggest fuckups in the industry
I swear they did this exact same thing to Bioware, except there they succeeded.
>>744724675Pro tip: never make an always online game where it's the only thing you do. That's the state of Rockstar now, who got rid of all their top talent and is about to release a souless new sequel.
>>744716774>Don't forget that Blizzard themselves fired all the devs who worked on vanilla WoW after or just before the game released back in 2004.What? I have never heard that, ever. And I was a WoW fag for long enough. I know they added some EQ Fags in senior positions who brought their raiding focus philosophy, but not a mass culling of the original devs.
>>744724675>their downfallThey're insanely profitable and have multiple projects in development including outsourcing their IPs. Overwatch also keeps going with very healthy playerbase somehow too not to mention having moneyprinting most popular MMO. You negroes have no idea what actual downfall is just look at Bioware lmao.
>>744724845>It make muney that mean it good!
>>744724914Yes.
>>744724592>simply drugged up rednecks in futuristic power armorless cringe then 40kids
>>744715449>>744715476Now we need life-ruining criminal charges for the liars. False allegation should receive the same penalty that the accused would have received had he been found guilty. This culture of women launching a nuke at men's lives and facing no repercussions must end.>But then a woman who's been assaulted might feel uncomfortable reporting it! Don't you know that this is more important than men having their lives destroyed?!Repeal the 19th.
>>744724914Unfortunately yes by very definition. Are you implying that all these pozzed flops are actually super duper amazing products?
>>744723915Before that it was the give one finger and they take your entire hand treatment. But at this point they were able to go full mask off cause they had the state to back them up.
>>744715476>>744720281You dumbed it down in a retarded way.The two allegations listed there are>they has been systemic/widespread sekuharaWhich isn't saying that there wasn't anything, just that it wasn't systemic.>that actiblizz execs ignored/condoned/tolerated a culture of systemic harassmentWhich naturally can't happen if it wasn't systemic.>Bobby Kotick didn't act improperly with regard to the handling of...You get the point. But other claims ActiBlizz actually settled, like discrimination in payroll and promotions, and fired about a dozen employees who were actually harassing people. Because this happens at every company and it's fucking Activision Blizzard.
>>744723101>scared shitless of another Starcraft scenarioWhat does this mean? As in not having any control or making any money off comps?
>>744724914And even then they could've made orders of magnitude more profit on one of the greatest IPs of all time if it were better managed and not ideologically captured. So this a line of argument is a weak cope.
>>744725059>You dumbed it down in a retarded way.No, you simply can't read.
>>744723781>is it already that period in time where republicans and democrats flip their ideology?Republicans have been standing true the whole time. Demonrats keep flipping in an attempt to destroy society, like they've now done with Activision. It's you fucking faggots who keep flipping too. Always fucking spineless, and always running back to us when your demonrat masters show their true colors.
>>744724914The purpose of a company is to make money.Whose fault is it that people refuse to let go of a game because they're sunk two decades or more of their life into a single game and refuses to let go even as the product rots in front of their very eyes?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Department_of_Fair_Employment_and_Housing_v._Activision_BlizzardWhat did they mean by this?
>>74472459240K took bucketloads of inspiration from 2000 A.D. Not only Judge Dredd, but also Nemesis The Warlock.You are an utter ignorant dolt for trivializing shit and just telling it's a ripoff when in reality it's not.
>>744725000>are you implying that nu-Blizzard making a profit by turning all this IP gold into copper is a BAD thing? they made a profit you know!woah, look out
i really don't careyeah i... just simply don't give a shiti just care that the games are good, and blizzard hasn't put out a single good game in over 20 years
>>744715449no blizzard is still fucked because it's ran by communists, troons, and feminists
meow meow meow meow
>>744715449Have a frat boy culture would probably lead to better games. Just saying.
How can you see a company that is bleeding subs and being a mockery of it's old self as good.WoW and Overwatch are a laughing stock for even normies. The only product people maybe have interest in is Classic+ if that is another season of discovery tier bullshit its safe to say Blizzard is dead as a company and only a zombie funded by jew money coming from nowhere like Disney.
>>744725245Im not arguing about a fact that Blizzard shits out slop because they do and Blizzdrones are lowest life forms in the universe but saying that studio is in downfall is geniuenly retarded. As I said look at legacy studios that can get closed at any moment and also released only slop for past decade.
>>744725467>for even normies.I promise you actual normies don't give a fuck about some stupid internet brand war from 10 years ago or whatever.
>>744721060>Not to mention Judge Dredd had massive pauldrons before Space Marines, hence Space Marines rip-off Judge Dredd.What ever you do, don't look up Adeptus Arbites.
>>744723365100% of the civilizations that just imploded for no reason did that.
>>744720638>>744721141Are those the same person?
>>744725240>GW was inspired by 2000 AD so it's ok that Blizzard ripped off GW!!Absolute state of Blizzfags.>Neemsis the WarlockAka shit that was just stolen from Star Trek. Don't look up where the Terran Empire is from.
>>744717631Every person I personally know that believe in Communism is some flavor of weird to the point that it can't be coincidence. One of my closest friends believes in it and he's a gay furry who's been unemployed for the last 13 years and believes that under communism he'd finally get his dream job of being an archelogist.
>>744718250>fired half their senior staff as penance.Did they fire anyone from the C-Suite or HR who were supposed to prevent stuff like those allegations from ever happening?Or did they fire the creatives with the most seniority and highest paychecks?
>>744725470>is in downfall is geniuenly retarded.It's in downfall when you see that they're intentionally failing to future-proof profit and player base retention due to ideological capture. It's in downfall because it's literally been taken over by people who hate the whole original player base of Blizzard games. It's in downfall because the talent and competency is no longer there - look at the fiasco with Warcraft 3. It's in downfall because their current product line isn't as strong as it used to be because their newer staff are mediocre in comparison to the older creatives. Being 'too big to fail' immediately doesn't mean it isn't in a downtrend and downfall in multiple ways.
>>744718237>you only remember the female characters because of pornuntrue, I remember Dva because of her hilariously retarded backstory>she was such a pro starcraft gamer that the south korean government hired her to pilot a mecha and her gamer APM lets her manually operate a point defense cannon
>>744725814Blizzard been pozzed for decade+ and nothing happened unfortunately. As I sai you faggots are delusional about goylems and their ability to consoome.
If men don't take back their policies, culture and jobs back away from women and trannies, the west will fall.
>>744718525>The guy who tried to kill the 2nd to last Russian emperor was the cousin of Marx.It was a cousin of Lenin you ahistorical idiot.If the Bolsheviks hadn't taken over Imperial Russia would have also been an enemy of Western Democratic powers. The Tzars invented modern secret police long before communism was even a pipe dream.
>>744715449Well,To be fairUhWhy the fuck do people even come up with Breast Milk?Is it women?
>>744724284So no source? You made it all up? You concede?
>>744725901>As I sai you faggots are delusional about goylems and their ability to consoome.I'm not so sure about that. Gamers are vocal and cynical about their medium. Lots of them are moving to AA and Indie titles in general. And younger people don't really like MMOs as much as the uncs do, so there's a scenario where Blizzard mismanages WoW into failing a decade sooner than it needed to.
>>744723365>99.9% of failed civilizations did not give women rights.This dude thinks migration means a civilization is thriving. No, dude, it's dying. If it were thriving, it would be growing, expanding, both demographically and geographically, not needing replacing populations to keep it going. That's the rules of the universe, what isn't growing, is actually dying because stagnation means death."Failed civilizations" always outlive whatever you're living in right now because the measure of a civilization is it's demographic strength, and nothing else. Everything else are bells and whistles and don't matter in the end. The only thing that matters is if you keep existing and by the looks of it, you're dying right now because you need migration to "survive". And the new arrivals don't give a flying shit about your civilization anyway, since it's not theirs. The only purpose of giving women "rights" is to hack their brains and make 80% of the males in the country look subhuman and like a threat, because women think men who are below them in social status are a threat, it's built in. If you're gonna tell me that these billionaires and trillionaires who have been funding feminism for a hundred+ years really "care" about women when you yourself think they're evil, i'm not sure where to even begin with you.

Until HoTS is actively supported by a larger team, Blizzard will never be back

>>744725353sex with the cat
>>744716626Because the real McRee was pictured in MUH RAPE SUITE (the green room for staff at BlizzCon) along with a dozen other people, so now he is problematic.
>>744726214Sure. Recent sales of Call of Duty ports on Playstation truly showed that. Stay naive and delusional though.
I figured it was fake because of how it started. This entire thing started because of the initial reports of the lower management guy being exposed that he was using his power to fuck one of their low level interns which lead to her suicide. Both of them where open liberal twats, yet the story went from holding some liberal abuser accountable to all the original founders of Blizzard have a secret rape room at Blizzcon and they need to be fired NOW. This is also why I don't believe Cosby is guilty and Trump is a pedo because it's the same shit.>Harvey Winstine gets exposed for having a giant sex trafficing ring and being involved unorganicly pushing leftist politics.>Quickly turns in to being all about Bill Cosby fucking hookers back in the 60s.>Everything about metoo focuses purely on Cosby and Winestine is a foot note if mentioned at all.>Hillary accidentally exposes that the DNC has a private email sever where tons of Dems and Hollywood jews talk in odd, very pedo coded language.>Turns out Jeffery Epstine has a giant sex trafficking ring that involves tons of Hollywood elites and mainly left/dem/progressive politicians, specially with the Clintons.>Actually it's Trump who is the pedo and is apparently the ring leader of it all or something.>No one seems to remember this all started because of leftists and that Epstine was a huge Democrat supporter.
>>744717142The snakes from this have their hands in so many pies right now too, including Sonic the Hedgehog & WayFoward. Take a glance at those properties and you can see them poisoning them all. I forget their exact names but it's mostly artist cliques
>>744715449>Blizzard after Microsoft acquisition >back on track>ever againanon... I...
>>744726270You made it all up. You got our hopes up, made us think there was final proof we were correct - and it was all a lie. Fuck you.
>>744726629I am also naive to suggest that there's been a generational fall off with MMO appeal, or are we just not reading that part anon?
Im getting a bit of column A and a bit of column B from this thing. Mainly I want the breast milk bandit to be real because its too fucking funny.
>>744715449They did a lot of wrong>raped and drove a woman to suicide>the breast milk shit>guys getting drunk and then going around cubicles groping womenWhat got blown out of proportion and made up>muh gender pay gap>there was a hotel room with a picture of Cosby, so they called it a Cosby room, everyone in the room got their lives ruined because they stayed in the Cosby room years before Cosby was accused of rape>banter about rape and sexual commentsBlizzard was not found not guilty. They settled for tens of millions.
>>744724040This annoyed me so much and I never played Warcraft but I put easter eggs in my software too and conceptually this infuriated me. Some nerdy guy puts picture of himself in a game that not many will find, they leave it in as an inside joke because the studio is a close knit brotherhood. Soulless Asians remake the game, see the easter egg and put in the office slut they all want to fuck into it hoping it will get them laid.
If Blizz had any balls left they would go on record saying "See? All of you wokefucks are a bunch of lying schizos", fire anyone who isn't a chud, rehire everyone "bad" they got rid of and a bunch of rapists on top of it then go back to make games the right way.
>>744725760
>>744716479I know a guy who's a voice actor that was about to become a director until a woman he never even met accused him of sexual harassment. It didnt even take a day for the studio to let him go. Even his "friends" who work in the industry either turned on him or kept their mouth shut because they feared backlash as well. It was proven a month later she was lying through her teeth because she was upset she didnt get the director role instead and there was no recompense. Shes still working at the studio and the dude has been doing odd jobs since then just to make ends meet. Women are capable of ruining any mans life on a whim with no consequences.
>>744716479I really think this is the same as communism in that the retards and freaks seize control of the place where everybody wants to be, and they think that no matter how badly they twist it up, people will still inexplicably show up.Like a workplace is a force in the universe that will always be 1300+ people, and if they lose people, no matter, they'll all be replaced by an equal number of their types.Completely unaffected by the market, the world, everything.And it always falls apart and they can never believe it
>>744715449>>744715476Does this mean Jason Schrier lied in his book?
>>744726912utterly delusional belief. especially after the kaelthas VA incident. even metzen is a castrated "man" licking the boots of leftists now.
>>744726629You mean 15+ year old games made before leftists took over and wrecked the industry sell well? You don't say.
>>744725950Ah right. I got mixed up, since they're both Jewish commies.>Inb4 Lenin wasn't Jewish
>Cosby suite was fakeok explain this image then
>>744726919Absolute cope, blizzfag.
>>744715476That only states that Blizzard itself cannot be held criminally liable. They can still be civilly sued and there is still mountains of evidence proving this shit all happened. But you knew that, you're just being a faggot.
>>744726646>>Everything about metoo focuses purely on Cosby and Winestine is a foot note if mentioned at all.You must live in a different universe, I still see Weinstein on the news from time to time but Cosby hasn't been mentioned in ages. >>Actually it's Trump who is the pedo and is apparently the ring leader of it all or something.Trump is in office now so he get more attention, but Clinton is hardly forgotten and usually gets mentioned in the same breath as Epstein and Trump.
>>744726946>It was proven a month later she was lying through her teethBible says people doing that should be prosecuted as if they did the thing they falsely accused someone off. we should bring that back and this vile faggotry would end overnight
>>744726837>>the breast milk shitIf this was real I guarantee you it was just a one time goofy office bet/dare situation. The thing about accusations like this is even if you try to explain what really happened it still makes you look insane and you still are on record stating you drank someone's breast milk even if it was a dare so you stay quiet and the false accusations linger
>>744716662>I don't understand how people even bother to pay attention to anything it saysMost of his actual "power" comes from his dad's connections with media companies and financial backing basically allowing him to go wherever and do anything in the western world, which is how someone like him was able to wind up at Bloomberg of all places also his primary residence is his dad's private island manor that's blocked from satellite view, the other ratholes he shows up at aren't owned by him.
>>744727096nta, but yeah, that pic was real. But the thing is that picture was taken before it was found out that Cosby was a rapist. The gang here was just having innocent fun.
>>744727096>Name the the suite the Cosby Suite before Cosby gets outed>This somehow means everyone in the photo is a rapist
>>744726876That nerdy guy was Samwise Didier, who was the main artist behind much of old school Warcraft, so he actually did something substantial, and the devs added him in because they thought it was funnyThis is literally just some purple-haired bitch putting herself in the game via a webcam photo to toot her own horn
>>744727096Bill was just a goofy friendly guy when that pic was taken and not the lvl 99 rapemaster that we know him as now
>>744727096Cosby wasn't even a rapist, he was never even found guilty
>>744727304Cosby being a rapist was something everyone knew but people were afraid to say like the Weinstein shit retard
>>744727041But he wasn't. >744727158The level of evidence required to be held liable in civil court is way lower than the level required for a criminal conviction.Never the less, that paragraph is pretty damning to their lawsuit, if there's no substantiation at all.
>>744727117Says the guy coping with how wrong he is.
>>744720165Are you retarded or just pretending? Suits don't care about artistic integrity or fans. They care about articles that make them look bad and lower stock prices.
>>744715449>back on trackEverybody has left now. Its beyond too late for Blizzard.
>>744727375>>744727402Bill Cosby had woman accusing him of rape since the 70's retard

>>744727536>famous person had people trying to say that he touched them inappropriatelywow, never heard that story before
>>744726946i'd burn her fucking house down
>>744727415Neither of them were rapists until they had been proven guilty in a courtcase.
>>744726946>It was proven a month later she was lying through her teeth because she was upset she didnt get the director role instead and there was no recompense.Why didn't he file a defamation lawsuit? It sounds like an open and shut case.
>>744726946yeah but leftists insist we live in a patriarchy so...
>>744716368Cole Cassidy. Lamest name ever. >B-B-BUT IT'S NAMED AFTER A REAL Fuck off it's a lame ass faggot name
>>744727653Because the courts are worthless, unironically.
Blizzard has been general ass since Diablo 3. Most of the Old Guard are long gone and failed with their own personal projects (curse of the solo act).
>>744719147He published an entire book, that's what he was "waiting" on. NYT Bestseller because his dad's an old school media mogul, entire thing can be summed up as half wiki infodump, half attack articles that you'd expect from polygon or IGN but "novelized" for publication purposes.
>>744726946>Women are capable of ruining any mans life on a whim with no consequences.Human biology is too blame. Men let women get away with tons of shit they would never let men get away with. The trade off to this is women were given less responsibility. Naturally now that they have responsibility without accountability you get shit like this happening.
blizzard died with the activision buyout and you retards have been coping about it for, what, two decades now?the canary isn't just dead, it's a skeleton by now
>>744716953Those read like the Holocaust Masturbation Machines, so yeah, obviously fake.
>>744718176It's almost like it's pathos for those types.

>>744728018Neck yourself, nigger. Sit the fuck down.
>>744727821It's because they can't admit they like slop and only turned against the slop when it started pandering to a more profitable demographic.
>>744727926Whatever you say, unemployable.
>>744728047Get your brain blown out in Iran already and stop invading nerd spaces.
>>744715449Back on track? It's all over, bro. Just shows you how absolutely ruthless leftoids are in their culture war against male entertainment.
>>744727821THISwhen that retarded sparkly horse was released and birthed an ingame store for a game you paid box price + sub fee + expansions, and even wowhead started putting out articles sucking blizzard's cock for this blatant greed, EVERYONE knew we crossed a point of no return
>>744725405It literally did
>>744727783Disgusting.He'll pretend the company fell apart and quality faltered because of le sexual abuse when it was the women and trannies taking over that did it.
>>744715449same for ubisoftyet people still pretend jason schrier is a journalist rather than a guy that is here to organize woke takeover of studios
>>744727926>They actually sold worse than even failed modern gamesGood thing nobody mentioned gaming wasn't nearly as much a mainstream hobby as it is today back then or your dishonest narrative would be in shambles.
>>744728175kek, malding
>>744726761Y-yeah ahah because Activision was so much better haha
>>744726769You're such a dumb prick you didn't even read the OP of the thread you entered you mouth breathing divvy.
>>744728159Projection, subhuman.>>744728378It's almost like appealing to people who aren't brainless frat boys actually caused gaming to become a mainstream hobby.>>744728436Your righteous crusade for the fate of the west is waiting for you, go get yourself killed already.
>>744728353He is a journalist. The fact he makes plants like you angry is proof of that.
>>744728609Chop chop, tattooed hobo. Bethesda will fold to your protests soon, don't let go.
>>744719356The biggest issue with having "men in suits" running things is that they avoid lawsuits like the plague, even if the suit would never have merit before a judge. The moment some retarded leftist tankie fuck starts threatening to get lawyers involved, the suits see it as a cheaper option to just capitulate rather than fight the allegations.
>>744728609imagine seething this muchworthless trannoid
>>744728892The biggest issue is having pathologically evil people in charge of a company.
>>744722781They actually all failed after giving women rights. It's actually happened numerous times in history. Regardless of what specifically lead to the empire's downfall, coincidentally they decided to expand womens rights before the collapse.
#MeToo was a scam and anyone lying about being "sexually arrested" should be arrested and sent in prison alone with actual rapists.
>>744728609Those brainless frat boys ARE the mainstream male audience. Who do you think is buying all those Ball n Gun games? And even they are leaving gaming behind. Everyone is leaving en masse because gaming is entirely women's entertainment now
>>744728609>It's almost like appealing to people who aren't brainless frat boys actually caused gaming to become a mainstream hobby.You weren't even alive back then, zoomie. Don't try to rewrite history.
>>744728996> It's actually happened numerous times in history. Name 10 examples.You won't since it literally never happened once in human history.>>744728996You sound like a rapist.

>>744729124Woke leftoids were attracted to how big and successful gaming was. Huge platforms to spread their political message is what they saw. But they needed to start a culture war to take it all over first
>>744728892>the problem is that companies get sued and they don't contest itI'm pretty sure there are far more honest lawsuits against vidya companies than dishonest lawsuits

So is WoW good now or not?Thats all that matters.If not, how many more years until its good again?
>>744729478Everyone was enjoying incredibly successful games in peace. The industry was thriving and vibrant. Until one day, completely unprovoked, woke leftoids launched a culture war over how "problematic and exclusionary" all those awesome games were. They targeted innocent gamers

>>744715449are you sure it's not because someone was trying to reduce blizzard to a really good discount through enshittification so microsoft will consider buying them and someone gets a nice pay day?
>>744716250>brother, they all pretty much came out and straight up admitted it publiclySource?>why the fuck are people defending blizzard of all things now?"Defending Blizzard"? We're blaming women for being liars.
>>744719356Nigga, "men in suits" ran the industry as it was going through its golden age as well. Investor money AND political meddling are both bad things because both tries to turn vidya into something that it's not.The "left" is just as bad as the faggots that are currently running the industry into the ground and retards like (You) will never understand it because you are perpetually stuck in a "us vs them" mentality.
>>744716801Yeah I'm sure stopping all game developments for more Call of Duty would be great.
>>744718351>You mean never let evil women who hate video games and only got a computer science degree because "it's the future" join the company.Isn't this most women?

>>744718351You might as well just have written "women" and your post would still have the same point. I've met a total of 2 women that actually liked their STEM degrees and wanted to work with it, the rest all just did it because it was supposedly a guaranteed way to make money and gain social status, they never gave a shit about the things they were learning they only wanted the potential rewards from it.

>>744729802just one more extension bro wow is this close to being goodtrust
>>744730310Studios used to tag along with publishers because it was mutually beneficial, the publishers would handle the marketing and the studio would try to make a good game, some studios let themselves get bought out because they figured the publisher wasn't bad, but over the years the culture has changed and publishers started thinking they know a lot better about vidya and the bought-out studios couldn't really say no. Blizzard used to be owned by Vivendi but Vivendi sold them (and their own games division IIRC) to Activision. Maxis was bought out by EA all the way back in 1997. Firaxis was bought out by Take-Two in 2005.The politics are irrelevant compared to the money. The "both are issues" approach doesn't work when one has around 95-99% of the influence. Consider how ball and gun gamers are enraged by the shallow blatant pandering designed for social media attention and not by the dogshit gameplay and monetization, it should be enough proof that niggas don't know shit and barely even care about the state of vidya in general as long as the slop keeps flowing, but they put rainbow sprinkles on the slop so they don't like it and they will want to consume slop again when the sprinkles are removed. Gigantic nothingburger propped up by casuals to distract from how poisonous shareholders have been for the vidya industry. Conglomerating developers to work on the same few big games instead of a larger number of smaller ones because of the blockbuster approach, owned by companies for whom the development expenses are a tiny blip on the quarterly reports. The fact that indie games can compete with AAA games should be a huge alarm over how badly they're mismanaging the studios they own, but perhaps laying off a few more studios to appease the shareholders and ruin the long-term vidya throughput is going to fix it. The CEO needs another hundred million dollars as a bonus from the board for running such a lean and efficient organization.
>>744715476>>744715449you realize just because there's no physical evidence it doesn't mean it didn't happen, right? there are DOZENS of testimonies from women there were sexually assaulted g*d the justice system is so fucked
>>744715449no
>>744732125what an odd thing to say
>>744732525Yes, the justice system absolutely is fucked, where baseless accusations can literally cause you to lose your job and get blacklisted in your industry.

>>744719356Well Bobby Kotick is part of the tribe and visited the island before, and furthermore Blizzard has a lot of strange ties to the US government so I would say with confidence that it is in fact the jews on this one. They initiated a purge to stack the company with useful idiots.
>>744732525Law enforcement has become an incredibly effective machine that can catch criminals via all the nearby surveillance cameras or even a little bit of DNA left at the scene but it can't do shit about a rich pedophile dying in prison with the cameras turned off and the only thing it can do against evil companies is fine them a fraction of their revenue which they note down as operating costs while they spend money to not let law enforcement do that again.

pretty obvious it was a feminist power grab, they do shit like this all the time, still fuck jews like metzen and ion
>>744717836You need to look up what the larger tyranids looked like in Epic before StarCraft released.
So uh, is there a reason why I can't find news about this anywhere?
>>744716579Kotick was always right. About everything.
>>744715449>they couldn't even get the California legal system to substantiate their bullshitThat is really damning lmao. What are the chances that the false accusers face any repercussions for ruining these guy's careers for no reason?
>>744716774this is the first i'm hearing of this post-vanilla mass layoff. the only vanilla blizz workers i remember getting fired were all the lolcow devs who buckled over the pressure of their job (that they sucked at and rightfully got called out on) and eventually have a public crash-out in the forums
>>744732525>believing people that are prone to lying if they have something to gain from itThis was always stupid.
>>744715449Oh are we at the point now where people act like blizzard hasn't been shit since D3 and maybe even SC2 depending on who you ask?
>>744735602lol

Big universities with game dev programs are full of people like this, and have been since before Gamergate. Now they're out in the workforce, hiring each other and forming consulting companies like Sweet Baby.
>>744736885Close but not quite - it's actually a generation of former addicts who were convinced to 'quit' Blizzard by the likes of Grumz and Asmongold. Now they're seeing all the hype for Camelot and TLT and the fomo is hitting them hard, hence the endless doomjeet spam.In short; you lost and Blizzard wonned, largely!

>>744729802Not until they fire every single feminist and women from their team.
>>744729802If you have friends, yeah.
Blizzard gladly hired people who weren't even hiding the fact that they hated people like yourself. They hired people that declared that your kind should be removed from society and forgotten in history. Everything you stand for isn't just wrong, it actively harms society, according to them and thus it had to be eliminated.They hired these people.>B-BUT MUH LAWSUITSYou fight those, you are a corporation worth billions, you can endure through a discovery phase. They didn't, because ultimately, they didn't care about bringing people who wanted you dead since it promised a new market. Of course, you, like the fucking retard you are, will keep buying their products, because they'll "redeem" themselves.Good goy.

>>744739694>no proof on your sideThe guy I'm responding to literally said it was proven.>>744741728>"Woke" trash like suicide squad kill the justice league actually sold more than that.Another quick google shows that game only sold 1 million copies - an order of magnitude less than the Black Ops 1 + 2 remasters.As for nu Saints Row, it says ~2 million lifetime sales.

>>744715449Blizzard's so far off the tracks that it should be making international news. They will never be good game makers ever again.
>>744729802WoW hasn't been good since WotLK.
>>744715449Let me spell it out for you plain and simple. The spirit of OG Blizzard will never return. The Blizzard people like and who made actually good games was a private startup of true comprised of nerds jocks bullied and theater kids actively ignored growing up. Current day Activision Blizzard is a subsidiary of publicly owned Microsoft. Normies, septum wearing libtards, commies, and karens have settled within the company and are like a stage 3 cancer that is impossible to remove. Give up and move on
>>744742729Cultural genocide is not okay unless it's done against Europeans. >>744742198> They still imply the Nazis killed 6 million people in concentration camps which would be the entirety of any scandi country.No?

>>744743859Culture genocide is completely fine if it's against inferior cultures that have produced nothing of value, like yours.
