as much as the company and management is a shit show the products they have are pretty good

WoW a subscription based mmo which is dieing but a good expansion can bring it back 100%+they have classic wows now
diablo- they have 2 diablo games fairly active with d4 coming out at some point
overwatch- a game thats got a pretty popular esports scene if money is pumped into it that can be pretty huge
call of duty-they own cod now sony has exclusive rights but now M$ owns cod lol
hearthstone starcraft etc etc these franchises have pretty big followings

the company has been a mismanaged shit show for a while now but there is still a lot of potential there... think of how much $$ microsoft makes with minecraft and these games shit on minecraft

plus i think blizzards got mobile games developers and shit too so Microsoft probably going to hit the fuck out of that market minecraft mobile incoming

So is this a good thing or bad thing for current and future Blizzard games? In terms of their quality/production.

Or way too early to say?

depends if microsoft weeds out the shitty activision employees, and bring their own guys in. So too early to say.

As a Mac and Playstation guy i hate it. Hellblade was one of the best ps4 games and microsoft bought em up to make the studio exclusive which was lame. Also generally, these big companies consolidating into monopolies is bad news for everyone. But i dunno.

fuck blizzard

battlestate games #1

too early to say but with how low blizzard has sunk its almost not possible to get worse haha
it can be a very good thing Microsoft has the $$ so hopefully they arent pushing and rushing stuff the game quality should improve and help bring blizzard back to the glory days
but thats a big if maybe they dont give a fuck and just want call of duty and mobile games

but something that has me kind of like hmmm
is Microsoft now owns esports titles in overwatch and hearthstone if they wanted to dump money into those they could possibly become pretty big
tbh i think even cod has epsorts but its more console based

Probably too early to say, however that being said, it cant get much worse lol
