Hopefully the ball keeps rolling and more unionize
Honestly as someone who plays WoW it just generally feels like the developers are in a better environment now than they were a few years back.
Never actually seen WoW referred to as Microsoft’s before.
I did know it was a subsidiary of a subsidiary, just feels odd to see it referred to this way, and not as Blizzard’s.
Yeah it’s weird, but technically Microsoft didn’t even acquire it until October 2023. Was WoW/ActiBlizz in the news in the 8 months since?
Yeah, they were. Predatory monetization continuing mostly.
I mean…is that really “news”.
Sorry, that’s really cynical lol
It’s Bloomberg, the only thing that matters to them is which stock ticker is attached to the news.
