Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I never expected this deal to get as much trouble as it did. I still think it would eventually close, but it's interesting to see the issues it is facing.
Okay, I don't get it. If they can't close the deal in June, how has it sped up the process? Can anyone explain for a completely non-law person.
Wow! I’m genuinely shocked by this
Let games be played on all devices. Sucks for consumers. Only benefits the ultra rich
While I also don't want a mega-corp overlord, I'd look forward of Microsoft acquiring Blizzard. Or anyone acquiring Blizzard, really. Something has to change in that company.
Anti-Trust laws are bs.
