      It seems that publicly traded game companies simply can’t help themselves from becoming this (e.g. Activision/Blizzard, Ubisoft, EA).

      It’s very sad, but at least there are still a few private AAA companies and indies who seem to make fun games for the sake of fun games.

        That’s what happens when MBAs start making too many product decisions at a tech company, and game companies are no exception.

        Not even just game companies. Publicly traded companies are a curse on humanity.

      I don’t buy or play their trash any more. It ain’t the 90s or 00s any more. Blizzard is ass.

      Ea, ubisoft, Blizzard. The games aren’t even that good
