She met some guy, acted like a whore sent him pictures of her asshole, let him lay pipe a few times, then as a favor and being a good fucking dude the guy gives the worthless cunt a job. Now all of a sudden because she found new dick I guess he is considered to be harassing her, and somehow this is all Bobby Koticks fault?
Get the fuck out of here. If it acts like a whore, smells like a whore, and dresses as a whore it's nothing more than a whore.

So, Blizzard shit-canned the dude a month after the girl reported his behavior to HR... seems like the type of case Bliz would put forth to say, "See, we are taking this type of thing seriously now and taking appropriate action."
In other words, she has no case. And by suing Bliz, you have to question her motives. Which should bring into question her part of the "he said, she said."
Maybe they should sue her for defamation.

Dont care to read article if thats the case. Bitch is looking for an out of court settlement. Destroyed dudes career in the process, cause even if its Blizzard, he cant use them as a reference and now his names in the news and.. ya - he's working somewhere making half what he should be getting paid now. Doomer' or not - this shit is not going to end well.She met some guy, acted like a whore sent him pictures of her asshole, let him lay pipe a few times, then as a favor and being a good fucking dude the guy gives the worthless cunt a job.

It would be nice if it was more, but best guesses:
- This could be due to the Microsoft talks, as in Microsoft would want to negotiate with them, and not have a already existing contract in place.
- It could also just be a negotiation tactics, and like many negotiations, will go down to the last minute, when both sides scramble to get the best deal before the deadline.

Please, like they care.
It either has to do with greed(money) from either side wanting more, or CCP upset over some perceived slight against them.

Microsoft pulled LinkedIn out of China for similar reasons, so neither MS nor China may be interested in keeping this going.

I don't blame Blizzard or MS for pulling out. China is on track to be the most heavily surveillanced country in the world if they're not there already. I'd rather get spied on by a democratic nation than these bunch of assholes.

This is all I claimed. It's a NetEase engine, with Blizzard mechanics design, and who the fuck knows which of the two sets of assholes came up with the monetization. Certainly seems Kotick-y enough.Diablo Immortal® co-development and publishing is covered under a separate agreement between the two companies.
Mist co developed by netease.
Fuck you bitch. I was right, you were wrong.
"Its just a publisher for China." Debunked by official sources.
EDIT: Can't believe I'm responding to a crazy person.

I'd love to know their full list of demands for Actiblizz to decide it wasn't worth the money. No Western progressive bullshit wouldn't get the job done. They must have also wanted something like 100% of collectible user data. Hell, maybe China didn't really want them at all. We've seen them pull back on the amount of Western films they allow.

I was in the same train of thought. My first knee jerk reaction was that Blizzard was just protesting China because they want to keep all of their faggots and the agenda intact. But then I recalled that Blizzard had no problem removing Skeletons and other funky stuff to appease them throughout the years.
Then I recalled the news about Diablo Immortal having facial recognition software in the Chinese clients base code. Knowing enough that Xi Jinping is pushing for each and every game/platform for a game to have that same facial recognition AI. Then their data collection methods on each and every citizen they have in order to push their agenda. Compare that stuff to what is happening with Tiktok and you we could guess that they are trying to push for data collection worldwide through WoW and other Blizzard titles. That data is power if we're to learn anything from IG, FB, etc. Money is always a point of contention - but even if Blizzard is only receiving 20% of the profit instead of 80% (pulling those numbers out of my ass), its their only option.
But I actually just believe its Microsoft putting an end to the relationship until the buyout finishes and nothing near as SEKRET as all that above. Maybe Im wrong, idk, but I doubt it.
