I am a bit glad the reaction has been overwhelmingly negative on this regard. If one would want to compare and contrast, then we can look over it. Bethesda purchase was for the sake of helping the business, especially when Zenimax has been all on live service aka trend chasing. ABK was all about saving the workers, even if the origin is to escape the punishment for the evil mastermind. Is there anything worth rescuing over Kadokawa?
If the purchase happens and they make them exclusive to themselves, the damage will actually be more severe than if CoD was to go exclusive. Yes, it would help Xbox greater but in short term. Long term, best to keep it open for everyone. As for Kadokawa, not only other platforms won’t get their games but so as other publishers. Bamco will be absolutely livid if they lose From for AC and DS-esque titles as well as Spike for DB. They will burn so many bridges. Don’t get me started on anime. It was actually rough that Netflix stepping in felt more of a bless than headache inducing."

I’ve seen many Xbox fans mad about this proposed acquisition; however, I haven’t seen any EA or Ubisoft fans chime in. Honestly, I don’t get why third-party publishers or their fans would be against it.
LMFAO

I gotta say man the tears of been delicious this week. Hoping this deal goes through, any one who says otherwise, just wants MS to own it all. We're in a post 80 billion dollar world in gaming, they opened pandoras box. To say it should stop now is hypocritical as hell, other big players gonna eat too.

Sony really is the final boss, all this hate from every angle and fanbase must feel different.
Everyone feeling the heat. Nintendo pushed out of the home console market and now Sony's coming for their handheld princedom with the Portal cloud streaming and the upcoming PS6 handheld. Xbox pushed out of consoles and forced to become a serf, feeding PlayStation users with a tithe of third party titles they wanted to keep all to themselves.

Sega salty that they were crushed in consoles and hitching their wagon to the dying Xbox platform, with their few remaining fans crying, slurring their speech, and drawing sonic doodles.

Steamlickers pressed beyond belief knowing they'll have to sign up for PSN to play the greatest games ever made.

The Playstation fans are running their mouths on Twitter. If the acquisition falls through, it’s going to be so embarrassing 🥴
