With Bobby Kotick no longer at Activision, some developers who worked on Call of Duty and more have begun speaking out about his actions.
Former Call of Duty and Blizzard Devs Speak Out Against Bobby Kotick; States He Made Games Worse::With Bobby Kotick no longer at Activision, some developers who worked on Call of Duty and more have begun speaking out about his actions.
Investors don't give a flying fuck, after all. Same with music and movies. It doesn't matter if it's shit, so long as it's profitable. Kotick is just one among a long line of fucking scumbags whose job is satisfying those vultures.
And people still playing those games. Kotick wouldn't be as successful if those that usually buy Activision titles would care enough about the games getting worse.
Wouldn't the time to speak out have been a long time ago? What good do these people think they are doing now? Fuck em, too scared to say anything when it mattered but want to give themselves a big pat on the back for saying what a lot of other people were already saying for a long time.
Now that's a condescending shit talk. They may like their job, they could be working behind the scenes to try and contain the damage. They could be doing the best they could do with the little power they had. You try to speak against your boss alone and trash the industry you're in, see how well it goes for you.
Also they probably value having a job and it isn't always so easy to just get a new one. When you weigh all that against some people on the Internet not happy with their video game they don't need to play, it's a pretty ridiculous comment lol
A story like this would have exploded had they gone to media outlets, I find it hard to believe someone would call him out in person but not be willing to turn media when that failed.
It really does feel like "oh no I was saying stuff back then, promise" to only speak up now
I don't work for pieces of shit so i don't need to...
But if that were to happen again then i would certainly call it out. Some of my coworkers in the past tried to bully me because i have values and don't believe in deceiving someone just to get a sale.
Lol. Ok. I don't even think i play anything he was a part of. I'm not into that kind of stuff, but my kids are... So yeah, i have an opinion. Sorry it didn't align with yours and i guess that makes me a piece of shit.
