Disgusted by Blizzard and Lay-offs

Then maybe they should invest in their own value instead of stealing it from someone else.

I honestly cant even fathom what someone would do with that much money. You hit a point in your life where either your happy or not and money wont resolve it.

it’s really not blizzard anymore :frowning:

even some of their like support folks seem different when you interact with them. it’s a spectacular fall to see…

i really think they can turn things around with a WoW reforged and diablo 4 though…overwatch won’t save a thing imo

Well, the Activision Blizzard merger may have saved Blizzard as a company, but it stripped the soul out of the company. I, and many others, mark that merger as the day that Blizzard stopped ā€œmaking games by gamers for gamersā€ā€¦ and began making games for investors.

So no… no respect for Kotick, he ruined everything I loved about Blizzard, and I would have rather they went belly up, than turn into this money hungry machine. Well done Bobby… you made a lot of people, and yourself, a lot of money and you ā€˜engineered’ the destruction of what may have been the best gaming company that ever existed.

The amount of people smoking capitalist kush in game forums never ceases to amaze me.

Yes, of course, let’s rally for 5,000+ people to lose their jobs, because you’re salty about how things change over the course of decades. Great idea. :+1:

Exactly. You can’t keep people on payroll ā€œjust becauseā€. At work, I don’t like cutting my employees early, but if there’s no freight, there’s no work and upper management expects me to follow through.

this post evidences everything wrong with modern capitalism and the behaviour of corporations getting a pass because ā€œmin maxing money is their jobā€.

I quit accounting school because of this pervasive, and WRONG mentality being pushed as the only thing you’re supposed to care about,.
