Of course it's about the money. They did the math and decided that the cost to their reputation outweighs the benefit of being associated with this shit show

it's not nearly important enough to risk being associated with Activision Blizzard. There are plenty of better ways for these companies to spend their marketing cash

Usually it happens when they think there is a better deal to be had or that the company is being massively undervalued. I don't think either is the case here

If they are publicly traded then you can try, but QD is private company and are free to reject an offer for any reason, or no reason at all.

Well there are new variants circulating, and the current vaccines may not be as effective. So we could have a big resurgence in cases, or it could finally start to fade away.

Many of us knew the 360 wasn't going to beat the PS3. It wasn't hard to figure out, they rushed to market with a machine that wasn't designed for HDTVs and only gained market share because they were the only new console for as much as 2 years in some regions. Buy once the PS3 launched there was no way the 360 could maintain enough momentum to stay ahead.

I can't feel sorry for them. How many of these half-assed projects need to fail before people realize it's not a good place to spend your money.

And about 499900 more than a Tesla Cybertruck :)

Why does that even matter? I can't even see my cables once they are plugged in

As are all premium cables.

Sure, but still the blue eyed blonde depictions of Jesus are pretty silly.

it's not just the chip shortage, shipping anything has become difficult and expensive. Anyone waiting for the retail price to drop is going to be waiting for a long time. prices could even go up

But you forgot to add the magic bonus points that all Nintendo games automatically get, that would bring your 7 in line with other scores

You don't know what else Bungie has in the works, neither does Pachter. But Bungie and Sony do.

Bungie isn't good at stories. The story in Destiny is boring at best. They put a lot of effort into it and produced vast amounts of lore to go along with it, but they just aren't good at telling their story.

I can see some pretty cool potential with live service spin-offs of games like HZD and GOT. Those are worlds that are fun to explore.

I gave up on COD after BLOPs. I did play Overwatch quite a lot but gave up on that as well a couple years ago after getting tired of all the unnecessary/bad nerfs and buffs

Yes Bungie, the developers that make the #2 MMO in the world

I think you're underestimating just how huge Destiny really is. It just keeps chugging along year after year with millions buying the expansions and seasons passes. I haven't seen Bungie's financials but I expect Destiny is quite the cash cow.

I've been seeing one every day for a year now, it's next to my TV so it's hard to miss ;)
