    I could’ve sworn I had NSFW content turned off, but yet there’s a picture of a gigantic asshole on this post

    I’m glad he’s finally fucking off, it’s just a shame it’s with such a fat bag of cash

      Except any good will that Blizzard used to have. But then again, that happened before he left.

      Oh he most definitely will be, probably in few months, I wouldn’t be surprised if by the end of the January he is already CEO again.

    And while it’s a good thing that this asshat is gone, I’m sure he’ll be running another company soon enough and spreading his cancer and bad practices elsewhere very soon as a CEO at some other company.

    Plus you know that he’s not the only cause of this at the company and his underlings that are just as cancerous with their bullshit are still there.

    He’s going to avoid blame for all the shit that Blizzard is going to experience going forward, likely due to his management.

    New director starting with “building on the successful launch of starfield,…” doesn’t inspire confidence. Neither did kotick though so let’s just see what happens

      Wild card. Paizo. He’ll come in like “while pathfinder has been successful I see a lot of room for growth and restructuring”. 5 years later, there are now 28 low quality books, all of which are on a subscription model, half the staff are fired, and the company is owned by Amazon… Oh and a crossover with Jack Reacher.
