Rest in peace Blizzard, you deserved better than someone who went the full extra mile to lick Xi Jinping’s boots. I wouldn’t ever expect a gaming company to stand up to a full-blown authoritarian government, but there’s no denying that that incident was the one to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that any heart and soul and principle that really made Blizzard special was dead and gone and never coming back.
Warcraft 3 was basically my childhood, and it’s so extremely sad to see what happened to blizzard. It was THE game company that cared about it’s fans, bringing out balance patches and new features many many years after games were released. Now, even with Kotick gone, I’m never gonna spend a penny on any of their games ever again
Edit: BlitzChung was right, we stand with HongKong

I feel the same. But if they do WC4 I know I’ll cave.
