If you're going to respond, at least do yourself the service of checking information when you're presented with it.

And although it has been going on slowly for a long time - things like that always happen - it has accelerated A LOT.

I mean here’s the announcement tweet from one of the linked studies.

And we’re delighted to announce that our friends at @DreamhavenEnt will be acting in official advisory capacity to us at Frost Giant. Dreamhaven will provide valuable expertise as we endeavor to build the next great RTS.

There’s nothing about dream haven acting as there publisher a advisory role could mean any thing.

It's the same thing with a new company.

Blizzard was a studio. It isn't the same thing when you have in-house studios, partnered studios, and a parent company. Science fiction, fantasy, and other similar topics are not "being specific". That is a large swath of games created now a days. Same thing with small games, rts, AAA, and whatever other studio descriptor you want to use. That is general and not specific.

Dreamhaven is Davidson and Associates was to Blizzard

When are these assholes going to stop with their fucking fake pandemic? They've been fucking with us for so long. Fuck all politicians!

I lost a close family member last year because of Covid-19 and some people like you still think it is fake? this is beyond sad really...

[Lolites]

The amount of years aren't really relevant when they're choosing the same career working for the same people but a different brand. And it is all happening within a year or so, but there's some non-compete clauses messing with the timeline. Don't be fooled - it's happening very fast.

ofc the amount of years is still relevant, obviously after working 20y on videogames they wont start selling bananas for living you fool...
"within a year or so"... more like 3 for Morhaime, more for others... like i said, some seniors members left during wotlk, hell one of founders left in 2004, then returned, then left again...
as a payroll accountant i can tell you employee fluctuation is absolutely normal, especialy in big companies, where i work little over 7y is average, actualy lower (little under 6.5y) for managers, people leaving after 10-20y is not surprising in any way...

Oh no, its retarded.

[Ealyssa]

I am free to live my life how I want. Period.

Simply wrong. Your freedom ends where other's start...

You are not free to endanger others. Nothing to debate here.

[rrayy]

Simply wrong. Your freedom ends where other's start...

You are not free to endanger others. Nothing to debate here.

Wrong. You do not get to dictate anything about my freedom or my life Don't like it? You are free to move to a totalitarian country where you can happily have your entire life dictated for you.

Nothing to debate here.

[Lolites]

It's the same thing with a new company.

yeah, i wonder why people with decades of experience in videogames production would want a work in that field...
bcs normaly people who work as electricians and leave the company ends up being sous chefs... /s

He didn't say that COVID was fake. That the pandemic is fake. BIG difference.

[rhorle]

Wrong. You do not get to dictate anything about my freedom or my life DOn't like it? YOu are free to move to a totalitarian country. Nothing to debate here.

There is since you apparently don't understand what laws are.

There is no difference because the pandemic is a result of COVID-19. One can not be fake with out the other being fake.

[rrayy]

untrue. because people have a problem with the covid vaccination, you completely rounded the pole and say they are endangering millions. this isnt polio. this isnt the black plague. get real. like seriously go ready death statistics on covid. i have yet to see one post saying smallpox vaccination is bad. we are specific to covid in this conversation. get it now?

Don't bother.. He does not care that the vaccine could cause heart problems, he wants you to blindly inject it anyway. It's all about totalitarian control. That is what those extremists want and they are using COVID as means to get it.

[Lorgar Aurelian]

Well I'm glad we are back on topic. But while it IS normal to people to come and go, I'm kinda missing the come part. When was the last time we had news that some new great talent joined Blizzard? Geunine question cause I can't remember. Yes, doomsaying is dumb, but turning a blind I to things not going well isn't wiser.

I remember seeing a thread here about an ex riot writer joining a month or so ago and a another riot dev who worked on reworks like Karma’s https://mobile.twitter.com/Scarizard...27790157504514

Positivity just doesn’t get as much notice just go to Twitter and search and there seems to be new hires weekly if not daily.

oh dont get me wrong. i have no problems with vaccines, and i have no problem with people saying no to covid vaccine. this isnt exactly a world killer pandemic. the numbers bear that out. the data is there.

Exactly what country DO you live in because all countries in the world have laws on what you can and can't do. There is no country in the world were you have universal freedom just like there is no country in the world with universal free speech.

If that is true, it is tragic and I am sorry. But that is the way of meaningless life. We come into this damn world without our will and we have to leave it without our will.

I have also lost so many people over the years, in car accidents, strokes, heart attacks, alcohol, one suicide and countless from cancer.
Your family member died of a virus. Sad as it is, this also happened before 2020.

Yes it is a fake pandemic. An epidemic here and there at most, but definitely not a deadly plague that would justify the current measures worldwide.
If this were a real deadly pandemic, there is no way that people in New York are dying like flies, but there were no such conditions a few miles away!
We wouldn't be having this conversation. The matter would be clear! They're screwing with us.

No hard feelings! Stay happy!

The matter is clear on how different places can have a different levels of infection. We would still be having this conversation as evidence of it being had now since people like you will find any reason to deny the reality of a situation. Or some other excuse to dismiss things. There is no worldwide conspiracy or group in control to screw with everyone at the same time. The they that is screwing with you is entirely within your own mind.

To call the pandemic fake when it meets every requirement of the that word is delusional.

This does not have such a big impact and is overrated to distract.
The reasons for many deaths at the beginning of the "pandemic" were
Panic was stirred up by the media.
Panicked people rushing the hospitals.
Panicked doctors engage in actionism.
Incompetent doctors stubbornly follow the wrong treatment recommendations of the Chinese.
Far too many artificial respirations done too early.
More panic arose and leads to the weakening of the immune system.
Very many other mistakes were made.

people like you will find any reason to deny the reality of a situation. Or some other excuse to dismiss things.

All this is already researched, but is denied by the incompetent politicians and corrupt media, because they are to blame for so much suffering.
In many countries, politicians must now use force to beat the "pandemic" into the people. (Wear a mask so you never forget we have a plague!)! Totalitarianism, police state, dictatorial conditions arose in many countries. Fundamental rights are trampled!

There is no worldwide conspiracy or group in control to screw with everyone at the same time.

Yeah, I personally don't think it's a conspiracy. It is much simpler!
1. sheer stupidity! The humanity is stupid since the beginning of time!
2. psychopaths rule the world! The higher the position, the higher the degree of psychopathy!
and the most important is the third point
3. most people are hopelessly superficial! After the slogan, rather I play my life long World of Warcraft, instead of that I read times a philosophical book. That is why people do not know about the danger of psychopathy. They do not deal with the meaninglessness of life and death. Become panic, if one shows them pictures of a few coffins and howling doctors. This worked in the Middle Ages and it still works today.

when it meets every requirement

That's the hardest for me. I had to hold on or I would have fallen off the chair.
The damn corrupt WHO changed the definition about 10 years ago. They've lowered the requirements way down! Now they can theoretically declare a pandemic every year!
If they had not changed the definition, probably no pandemic would have been declared.

All this is not new and also not a conspiracy theory! Inform yourselves finally! Stop calling everyone nazis, covidiots, corona deniers, conspiracy theorists, anti-vaxers or whatever else. This does not help you. You make it too easy for yourselves.

Why would you be against ending the "pandemic"? Any positive news is immediately put down. Why? Do you want to wear the mask forever? Because that's what will happen if you don't finally stop letting people think for you.

[rrayy]

Exactly what country DO you live in because all countries in the world have laws on what you can and can't do. There is no country in the world were you have universal freedom just like there is no country in the world with universal free speech.

I live in a country where I am not forced to take this vaccination. You want a country where you are forced to take one. You can go live there instead of trying to force totalitarianism in mine.

I agree.

I have no problem with people who wish to take it. What I have a problem with is those trying to force others to take and demonizing people for choosing not to take it.

[Verdugo]

Don't bother.. He does not care that the vaccine could cause heart problems, he wants you to blindly inject it anyway. It's all about totalitarian control. That is what those extremists want and they are using COVID as means to get it.

I always found your posts having a stench of self-importance, but now we know you are just another Q-tard.

its not everyone. Countries in asia&africa didnt shut everything down and still operate as normal. Did you miss local reports screeching over them surely faking numbers cause they didnt seem to experience sodom&gomorra despite staying open? And what's happening at home? You can enjoy more suicides in a month then otherwise in a year while mental patients are overcrowding institutions . You're still stacking corpses, its just a different crowd than tv tells you to worry about and its gonna get worse because the economic damage takes longer to fully unfold and then you have to deal with the increased dropouts in the education system. You pwned kids to let the elderly live a bit longer.
