Haven't touched anything from blizzard or Activision lately and probably won't. The fact they still haven't fired bobby kotick is mind boggling to me. Ubisoft of course with the sexual abuse/harassment issues that they didn't do much about at all. They said their sorrys, but I don't think their ceo meant any of it. Was just about saving face. After their last spat with their workers and everything that's related with the CEO, I'm currently in hibernation with any of their games in the view.

Ubisoft even tried to apologize for their sexual abuse/harassment issues but what about Activision with their own? Even when the board didn't want to do anything about it and the CEO wasn't touched.

They were willing to lose a lot of money to just cover their tracks. https://www.theverge.com/2021/11/21/22795286/activision-ceo-bobby-kotick-is-not-resigning-yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's making too much cash right now and I don't think they can outright fire him either. Which I don't get. Maybe he's more in control of things than we thought. It's sickening that he's still in power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their is should be laws protecting the rights of gamers, and not the full 💯 right going straight to the video game companies to manipulate us anyhow.

Seriously, for the board willing to lose some of their investors by not removing the CEO Booby shows they have something more cynical to protect.

Kane99 Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I don't get why the board is allowing Bobby Kotick to stick around. I heard somewhere, maybe here, that hey may have some stuff on the people of the board, and that's why they aren't kicking him out yet. idk if that's true, but I swear I heard something along those lines.

It's actually very obvious that they are in on one bed 🛏, otherwise they would have taken some actions against him but rather they have him protected.

Xbox is already circling around to purchase the Activision Blizzard in deal worth $68.7 billion dollars and it's been confirmed that Bobby Kotick is getting booted out immediately the deal is completed.

Yeah, I read about that in one thread already and looked it on Twitter, it's definitely happening and I'm very sure that even the workers of Activision Blizzard are very happy.

At least Activision Blizzard would be out of the way from the list of horrible game's companies that's going to be worrying us with whatever trash they would be doing with their games.
