Blizzard was THE gold standard of gaming back in the day. The higher you are the harder you fall.

Rockstar always got a lot of praise but they were a one trick pony.

Capitalism killed gaming. The Ever quest for growing profits is not compatible to how games were made back then. Also blizzard going down is Activision's fault.

Rockstar is very surprising. They were so beloved between 2000 and 2012.

That's what happens when you have a bunch of suits who couldn't care less about video games running game companies.

weird take when activision lately has been doing stuff crash bandicoot 4 and the spyro trilogy remaster while blizzard has been what, cancelling conferences because they don't have anything to show?

I know Activision has Kotick etc., but in terms of games, Activision's output lately has been solid compared to the brown water that has been Blizzard's.

They decided to split up Starcraft 2 more than 10 years ago, so we knew where they were going.

Greed destroys many great companies, and sadly Rockstar was not immune and had the wrong people making choices when GTA Online was conceived as an idea.

Yo, Foppe I remember there being a topic about you having not logged in for awhile at the beginning of the year and missing you. I'm glad to see you back.
It was only 14 months.
Thanks.

Activision killed the company who made Crash Bandicoot 4 and the Spyro Trilogy remaster earlier this year despite them being successes.
