I'm 50/50 on this one. I hate the idea of monopolies eating up everything, but man has Acti-Blizz-King been overall shit lately. With the odd exception to the current WoW expac which is fantastic. Candy crush is their biggest bread winner, and you can see those shitty "features" leaking into their other IPs. Not to mention the terrible sexual problems @ Blizzard.
I hope they clean house on worthless execs and upper management, then leave them be to make games.
The problem is, will being owned by MS make any of that any better?
Microsoft gives us Halo and Starfield. Activision gives us Call of Duty and World of Warcraft.
Sure, the former have their issues, but they also have the freedom to go at these large scale projects. The latter are rehashed cash cows that have no intention of changing, spearheaded by a community of breast-milk theiving offenders.
