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’ll be shocked if it doesn’t go through. I stand to benefit from the acquisition as a GP subscriber but I’m definitely worried about corporate consolidation. At least Bobby Kotick will go away
This is one of the few corporate mergers I think could make things better because Blizzard is just THAT bad.
Plus this means the SC themed Halo clone I've wanted for the better part of 2 decades could be a thing.
Yeah I think I agree with you on the merger, but I’m of the wait and see mindset more than picking a side.
Still waiting on SC Ghost? I remember buying game magazines and being so hyped for it to come out.
Yeah, I'm a tiny bit optimistic, but only time will tell how this ends up going. Also Activision really is such a fucked up state right now, that if they end up making it even worse, so what? I really only see two options: eather it will be better or continue be shit like they now are.
I will forever be waiting on Starcraft Ghost.
Dear god I will lose my shit.
Right but when will Bobby leave..... i believe it when I see it.
