If they should have fired anyone, it should be Ion Hazzikostas. Not Ythisens. I am further disgusted by Activision yet again. Blizzard needs to be back on its own.

That fucking Kotick comment blows me away. He’s rubbing his slimy mitts together saying that while they made more money than ever before in 2018, it wasn’t good enough so time to fire the employees.
That guy really steps right into it time and time again.

You mean "back on its own" when they released Rock 'n Roll Racing? They haven't been "on their own" since sometime in the 1990s. Originally Posted by dblanch369

Kotick's only goal in life is to make all of the money in the world. "More money than ever" is not enough for him. He wants all of it. Originally Posted by Beet

Blizzard developers were lazy and they wanted to promote their games a lot without developing new games or bringing meaningful new content.

So you mean like in the Super Nintendo days? I doubt you were even alive back when Blizzard was on its own. Originally Posted by dblanch369

I do wonder how things would look today if some of Vivendi had managed to get Kotick fired like they wanted to in 2013. Basically Kotick threatened to quit if he wasn’t backed by Activision to buy the majority stocks from Vivendi. At least according to an old polygon article I recently read.

No you dont if you make statements like that. Business = trying to maximize profit. It's not a freaking charity! I feel sorry for the people involved but all stupid comments like "oh they earn enough" or "ceo can share his money", dont know shit how businesses work. I wont even try to explain to you people that only wanna go communism on the world, it simply does not work that way and never will. Originally Posted by Saeran

If what he is saying is true,well,actually, I applaud to this man. Applaud,because he managed to sell a total shit with a profit.
Now I realize,that making the Hearthstone available on mobile was the first step, then the mission table application, now Diablo. Soon,he will announce,that WoW can be played on phone. So,that's where the most of the resources are going - not the story,not the gameplay,but making crappy quality game add-ons available on the phone.

Blizzard is trying to move to a yearly schedule of releasing games, making more money than ever before in 2018 was not enough for them, they layoff 800 people to save money so they can pay their CFOs 15 million dollar bonuses
making more money than ever is not enough, they need moreLast edited by apelsinjuice; 2019-02-13 at 08:34 AM.
