Fuck Blizzard.

It’s really that simple. I feel like since Activision got involved their quality just tanked. I don’t have proof of this but I just haven’t seen great stuff since they came in.

I think it's that but also a lot of stuff about the culture in Blizzard itself has come to light, maybe as a result of the extra optics the Activision merger had on the company. Activision can certainly take some heat here but let's not pretend Blizzard itself is a golden child.

But putting any type of gameplay behind a paywall, that can have an effect on the competitive integrity of a game. And so we tried to mitigate that. We put heroes in the free battle pass; we created challenges to unlock some of the heroes.

It's incredible how one can learn to say the most idiotic things in a non-idotic way. Like speaking fluent corpo with a lobotomised brain.

I'm honestly convinced the game designer has never actually played a video game. Its the only thing that makes sense.

Bring back 6vs6 and another "no role lock" mode. That's all I want to reinstall. I'd still miss the free skins by simply playing, but at least I would play.

I miss tracer's ass, Reinhardt's charge and Mai her giggle.

Also a fucking movie, when?

Nah, all dreams, will never happen. Bye.

Agreed. They started listening to the wrong people, so I stopped playing.
