Microsoft really waving around wads of cash to get all the big name studios that aren't already first-party. Kinda worrying to see this much consolidation in the industry. | ||

I'll probably be very wrong if it does get announced, but that's just my hunch from gazing at the tea leaves of the gaming industry. Also, it's a bit funny how gamers are laser focused on the ramifications for MS vs Sony, exclusivity and big name brands while Wall Street and the press is being sold this as a metaverse investment and to look at the money printing from mobile gaming like Candy Crush. | ||

Activision was doing barely anything with their IPs bar say a bit of Diablo and Call of Duty. ActiBliz was just a CoD Machine, so this deal kinda makes it better for more games from other series, i mean, Tony Hawk and Crash developers were made cod studios, they had like literally 6 developers doing ONLY COD. It's the revenue of Warzone and King that probably drove the price up... I mean, i can't see the state of Diablo, StarCraft, Warcraft, Tony Hawk, Spyro and Crash being the reason for it to cost 70bn. So id say this a good move for Blizzard, although RTS games are kinda dead so :/ | ||

Hopefully theyl start production on it in the next few years just because "hey we have this historically popular property, shouldn't we do something with it?" | ||
