In two years people will be creating threads begging for his return.

More trouble in Camelot.

Sooner or later there won't be enough influential people at Blizzard for it to remain "Activision-Blizzard" and continue to function "autonomously" and Blizzard games will become just like the rest of the disposable titles Activision mass produces.

Ya right lol, he was awful and incredibly full of himself.

To be fair, this was said about GC too and a large portion of people want him back. I had my ups and downs with GC, but I always felt his desire to communicate openly clashed with Blizzard's internal policies leading to some really awkward outbursts, perhaps due to not spending enough time crafting communication while still trying to get important messages out there. I can probably count on one hand the amount of truly offensive things GC said compared to the wealth of wisdom he has shared, most of which came after he was free to talk openly after taking the position at Riot.

Fortunately, Jay Wilson has never had the intelligence or game design chops to be able to provide such a useful role for people to want back. Good riddance.

Hasn't that been the case since Late Wrath?
