this should be considered cognitive- terrorism

Dude bold face lies often on his show. What’s remarkable to me is how confident they were reassuring his insane cult that all is well. Ftc sues to block the deal, eu might as well, every major regulatory body has delayed reporting indefinitely, ho hum it’s going as planned.

I guarantee you, no I promise you, if you go to earlier episodes him and his panel will say this deal will sail through no problem. I tune in just to see how insane the Xbox cult can get and it never fails to disappoint.

It’s easy to see the reality distortion field. Each fan, each tweet feeds another.

The reality is the biggest gaming merger in history is no simple tick and flic and certainly far from a sure thing.

Overwatch 2 out of Xbox top 10. Activision’s downward trend continues.

It’s all riding on Diablo 4 now.

Whats the top 5 atm?

 

[Vertigo]

Whats the top 5 atm?

Warzone, Fortnite, Apex, GTA, Roblox

Overwatch dropped out of top 10 quicker than Halo. This is a bit nutty. Sure it may not be considered an actual sequel to most but hey they marketed it as such. Overwatch 1 was holding in the top 20 and zero updates when it had a price. So this is …. Not good?

Season 3 launches in early February. We’ll see then if it recovers any major positions.

Ok didn't expect that. Just the usual for the top 5

Another blizzard problem is they no longer have a contract with netease for China and it apparently takes a long time to renegotiate with a different company because it needs Chinese government approval.

I feel like I only know Spencer, Booty and Bond. Where's all the rest. Where's Panos Panay from Surface/Devices unit? After seeing SX be a giant rectangle they need some Surface design pointers.

the idea that slapping a he/him, she/her tag under the photos of MS execs would somehow facilitate the illegal takeover of a maligned publisher who is currently under investigation for sexual abuse claims?

it's just too on the nose.

And yet, that's exactly the bullshit some members of Team Green will spew online. Ridiculous.

 

[Elder Legend]

We were just talking about choices. I just gave you like three examples of what I do. I have the choice to buy games or play them via Game Pass or try them out first instead of taking a chance on buying them. But whatever man.

You can't reason here with majority of the members. They are brainwashed and jealous of Game Pass. Trust me, if Sony offered a similar service it would have been a different tune. It's all Tribalism.

True, and I don't see a single gender non-conforming person on the entire leadership team. Just a bunch of straight white folks and white-passing Kareem Choudry, a model asian minority, and sarah bond who is a beauty queen and probably has endured very little struggle in life.

Not a good look, MS. I don't trust them to right the ship at activision at all.

we the consumers deserve better...

MS isn't going to have the chance to right anything to do with Actvision. That deal is not going to go through.
