I would *LOVE* a game using just the combat system from DOS2.  Environmental damage, character customization, and all sorts of other depth.  

Or he’d be interested in it strictly cause it was a platinum chip.

Convenience has a cost, unfortunately. 

If delivery previously made up 80% of their revenue and dropped 3.5%, that’s not going to be offset by the remaining 20% of pickup revenue increasing by 5.6%

Convenience?

He didn’t even read the title in this case.

The title, “Democrats say they need to hear from scientists, not Trump, that vaccine is safe”, first paragraph - along with *all* the quotes make it clear: Trump’s word alone would never suffice to take the vaccine.

You mean him meeting with ACT UP since its founding to discuss their policy suggestions? His pushing forwards changes with the FDA to expand access to drug tests? Allowing HIV positive members onto the overseeing committees to AIDs research programs? His involvement to start PEPFAR in the early 2000's (a much lauded…

We wouldn’t take it *solely* if Trump was the one hyping it.

Everyone who saw the Diablo Immoral and WC3: Refunded fiascos?

This shouldn’t surprise anyone at all.

Hell in D3, there were specific metas that leaned into that already.

Because of how he runs.

So you are saying we need to also stop all of Sony’s purchases of gaming companies? Great! Heck, let’s stop all other companies buying other companies since it *could* lead to a monopoly

In a world where most developed nations are in a cost of living crisis, being nickled and dimed for everything will drive people away. Blizzard really needs to read the room 

It’s very clear that Blizzard’s OW team has no idea wat they want to do with the product, beyond milk customers of money needlessly.

There’s still no monopoly going on here. Again, only Sony was headed that way with all their company buyouts. I am not a MS fanboi by any stretch (PC master race here) but it’s disingenuous to say Microsoft is going to become a monopoly with this purchase.

They’re also buying King, which is lost in the shuffle as a massive money maker in mobile.

The only console exclusives Nintendo has are their own first party games. Stuff with Mario, Zelda, etc IPs are less "paid exclusives" and more their own product designed for their consoles. 

Nintendo has been doing paid exclusives? Other than their in-house games (Mario/Zelda/Pokémon, etc) and then the few games that they purposely funded or they wouldn’t have existed (Bayonetta 2/3), they don’t really do that.

We’re already amidst a mad rush to acquire every single AAA and AA studio of note. Everyone is looking to be bought out.
