yeah, she was literally the face of their "we hired women" rehabilitation, and they chose to pay her less than her co-lead. And they obviously knew she was worth more, since they offered it to her when she quit over the disparity.

Even if people want to say "she should have negotiated better", someone at Blizzard needed to realize that paying the woman they promoted publicly in the midst of all of this shit needed to be, at minimum, the same as the man she was joining in that position.
The moment they decided they NEEDED to hire a piece of shit like her, they fucked up. Everything after that is axiomatic to "get woke, go broke"

Blizzard will just be renamed SnowStorm and no one will be the wiser.

You joke, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did some shit like “Rainstorm” and try to be symbolic “so like ice is frozen water. We thought in order to distance ourselves, we had to destroy the old. The melting ice represents the destruction of the old, but water is life and stuff, so it’s like rebirth or whatever

Please buy Fruitbowl Simulator 2023”

None of us know anything about the situation other than hearsay. We don't know what O'Neal was being paid prior to being offered the Co Lead position, nor do we know what Ybarra was being paid. If Ybarra was already being paid more than O'Neal, then tough shit for her... truly. If they were getting equal pay prior to becoming Co Leads, and then Ybarra got more, then sue them, but surprise! she isn't suing anyone. She is just leaving then bitching about it to play a fucking victim.

So the retards at Blizzard who have done nothing but fuck up for the past 5+ years thought she was shit. I cannot think of a more glowing recommendation for O'Neal.

Or the retards now running Blizzard thought she was shit and she is even worse than those purple haired fruit balls.

And you assume this why? Why would you assume there is the least bit of competence left to make that kind of judgment at Blizzard, especially considering O'Neal is the former the head of a studio that actually has successful and popular releases in the last 5 years? Something none of those clowns have managed to accomplish.

The number of White Knighting faggot simps for an affirmative action hire is pathetic. This is a multi-billion dollar company not a washing machine. Worthless cunt is lucky she was given a free parking space and spit in the gift horses mouth.

If the wanted more money maybe she should have.... say it with me now... negotiated better.

Diablo 2 resurrected and skylanders are the pinnacle of game development now?

The number of people who trash Blizzard daily but draw the line and jump to their defense as soon as they can blame something on a woman on the internet is fucking hilarious.

They all suck. Pretty sure Boozecube has been trashing Blizzard guys and girls alike for the last five years.

Take off your blinders and join the real world.

She was very actively involved in the Tony Hawk remaster, which is definitely in the top 5 remasters, and that's why she got put on the D2 remaster after the WC3 debacle happened.

Meanwhile the dude in question is posting on Twitter and streaming about boosting keys.

Boy, that sure panned out well didn’t it….

That disaster couldn’t have had anything to do with it. Had it been a white heterosexual male that released that trash I’m sure he would have been promoted to CEO. 🙄

Bring more to the table than "muh vagina" and she would of been paid accordingly. Bliz might have zero talented game designers but they are still breaking record profits. You might wanna learn some business 101 Mist.

You joke but I bet the blizzard.com and battle.net domains will be all that's left of Blizz in a few years. Activision will repurpose the domains for some other use and people will barely recall what they used to be for.

Kinda like how EA reduced origin.com to their online DLC whorehouse and noone associates it with Ultima or Wing Commander anymore.

After the more recent allegation.. if there true (lul) I don't think anything will save them...

I've never bashed on Blizzard in the past but these last few years you could tell that something happened, D3 Auction House, WoW basically being a rehash of it's self over and over, and the whole "Don't you guys have phones'" ordeal was just the mountain starting too come down..

Kinda expecting Morhaime or someone to form a substudio with some of the old devs that aren't in the allegations mess and acquire the rights once it tanks hard enough.

Something like a FFXIV 2.0 situation is the only thing that will save the IP now.
