MODERATORS
I was leaning away from them when they chose China sales over that tournament winner expressing support for the Hong Kong resistance. Then I walked away when the sexual harassment shit came out.
Everything since then has mostly been confirmation that they've lost touch entirely with what I used to love about them. The only "good" news I've heard about them is that Diablo 4 was briefly looking good until they released the first season and made it clear it was just another cash grab.
I miss the Blizzard that would ban waves of gold farmers and buyers. The Blizzard that hired two prominent StarCraft modders to work on the Warcraft 3 map editor. The Blizzard that didn't write a tos that says they own anything created with their map maker ("we own all content involved in our platform" should frankly be illegal, it should just be a license to publish that content is implied by uploading it to be published).
But, the sexual harassment stuff showed that even that Blizzard was toxic, though having grown up through that era, I can't say it surprised me. The only surprising part was how late it went on for.
The only good news I’ve heard about "them" is that former devs founded a new studio and are making Stormgate.
