No, thanks
Blizzard (cough Activision) has gone down the toilet for me.
It started with Diablo 3. What a horrible game. Arrogant developers. Terrible story line. Deckard Caine got killed by a butterfly and the lead story writer joked about it. They had no love for the Diablo franchise. Just a bunch of ex-Wow developers.
I said I would never buy a Blizzard game after that. I was right. Diablo 4 is a complete shitshow as well.
Further more, they abandoned Starcraft entirely. Some of the Starcraft 2 left to make new RTS games because Blizzard doesn't see any money in RTS. They just want to sell cosmetics and skins.
And it seems like they have absolutely terrible work culture abusing their employees.
