Oh no, he will be sorely missed. Just don’t forget the bleach once you’ve shoved his toxic ass down the drain.
If you miss Bobby Kotick, you need to aim better.
Good riddance.
A solid first step. Sadly, I don’t think it will bring back any semblance the old Blizzard.
I think it’s damaged beyond repair.
Do we really want old Blizzard back?
Personally, with all that we learned about the frat-bro culture there, I don’t want it back. Hell, if it meant people didn’t get abused, I’d erase it.
I’m not talking Bobbys Blizzard.
I’m talking really old Blizzard, before WoW and Overwatch.
When they where still the good guys in gaming.
The frat-bro culture of harassment and abuse started way before the merge with Activision.
In that case it has always been there.
I think it is impossible to properly state how damaging his existence was to gaming as a whole.
I would gladly say good fucking riddance, as if it was a victory, if it weren’t for the fact that he is going away with a fuck ton of money. He didn’t lose anything, he just won. And the whole gaming industry, hell, the whlole world suffers because of it. Because this isn’t just about video gamse. The man is a vile piece of shit. And he just gets to walk away and get away with it. Because money is power. The whole thing is just sickening.
Maybe he’ll choke on an olive and his useless life will pass before his eyes just before he gets saved by someone he had once fired.
Perhaps then he would no longer be such a douchebag. I doubt it, though.
