Big shakeups at Blizzard and more confirmation that mobile is their new main focus

https://youtu.be/WQq8aB77VCI

Apparently CoD Mobile did pretty well, so you can be sure Activision has a strong argument to throw in Blizzards' faces about the importance of mobile (assuming there's even any PC loyalists left there). For what it's worth, apparently they are committed to squeezing out nostalgia dollars, so ya'll can be optimistic about remasters of all your classics (assuming you even want that after the W3 fiasco). And we've got a new Diablo head - guy has most experience with the Gears of War franchise and is known as a great producer/fixer, which doesn't mean he's great as an actual developer of good games.

"Did pretty well" MEANS a small PERCENTAGE of rich players bought a CRAP LOAD of MICROTRANSACTIONS...! TRASH PLATFORM

Doesn't really matter how it made its money, just that it did. Revenue is still revenue, regardless of source. That's enough to make mobile alluring.

Lol, you don't get automatic refunds and the lowest user score on Metacritic just cos of a few streamers. Even Fallout 76 is rated higher, despite all the bad press that got too. You can find lists all over the place of all that's wrong with it to show how bad Blizz fucked up. Even they themselves practically admitted how bad things had got when they were forced to respond to the fiasco.

I bet you don't realize how ironic this sounds.
