Good. The idea of Microsoft (or any other massive corporate entity) buying up devs and publishers en masse is terrible for the industry.
The odd development studio is one thing, but MS really seems to be pushing too hard. I can imagine they'll be looking at EA and Ubisoft in the next ten years if this goes ahead.
It's easy to take the piss out of Sony over their reaction to this buyout, but their concerns are pretty reasonable. In order for a healthy and thriving market, there needs to be competition.
Get rekt, Blizzard.

Realistically, Activision will either seal this deal or become a corrupt tentacle of the feminist propaganda mill.
Or both, not that I hope for it. But we have seen how things happen in these mega companies.
Microsoft is a more trustworthy owner than the California "equality" courts.
Bungie.
Nobody ever could have predicted this.
I said the feminist-led countries wouldn't let it happen. They put way too much effort into their coup to allow themselves to be cucked by Microsoft.
How would Microsoft be cucking feminists by buying Blizzard?
Part of the CA ruling was that women's groups would be able to appoint people to the board and would have influence over hiring and firing.
They can't do that if Activision is Microsoft. The ruling only stands if Activision remains independent.
