Bobby Kotick officially out as CEO. Shame that he's getting his golden parachute and leaving on his terms. Hopefully Microsoft is a better steward than Activision Blizzard was.

This buyout won't fix ABKs reputation. It wouldn't be a shocker if they shut down WoW to save money since the Blizzard drama is slowly killing it.
They'll likely reboot every IP they have. The Activision side of things is more profitable though. --- "Do you like Scary movies?" ... Copied to Clipboard!

For an MMO, merely being decent is not good enough.

Not nearly as many people care about HoTS as D2, but I think the backlash of the former, should MS try anything, would keep the latter safe. --- evening main 2.4356848e+91 https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ...
