Well, there are certain boss fights in FFXIV where the floor gets slippery and all the autistic moving backfires.
On the other hand, this is the power level of WoW mythic raiders at work:

What is even going on here:
Streaming a game to protest the developer of said game seems like a mental gymnastics routine.
"I believe in a better Blizzard." ... I think at this point most people are so resentful about Blizzard, that they want to see the company burn to the ground. Some out of spite, some because they hate to get guilt by association, and some just so that Blizzard can't fuck up the memory of the good games with "Reforged" editions anymore.
Blizzard could come out with a cheap combined cure for cancer and covid tomorrow, and people would still hate them.

You are playing a game with a furry fox race, body positive race, tranny dragon and tranny blue angel as a major characters.
The difference is player choice and NPCs.
FF14 lets you have a gay marriage, run an LGBT nightclub/brothel or wear a chainmail bikini. I don't need to see any of that shit if I don't want to.
WoW forces you to interact with diverse NPCs, I played Kyrian and had to "soulbind" with a tranny otherwise I couldn't progress.

All these non blizzard employees protesting, tons of freaks having a "me, too" moment despite being in the company for 10 years and every influencer banking on the situation should just stop right now. You are not helping and making the whole situation worse. Do they really think this will lead to a better WOW in the end?

Not a single person you mentioned cares about the game itself, its all about themselves and the optics of protesting.

I've come to the point where all this wow metoo shit has gone from I wonder what they actually did, to it's just fucking annoying, they are already rehashing any news tidbit to keep generating clicks. How many fucking different takes with no no info does that 10 year old blizzcon clip warrant

Firings would've happened one way or the other. Bobby increased his influence over Blizzard steadily over the last decade. And let's face it: JAB was a too nice guy for the leadership position he was in, this was obvious from day one.
It's just as I assumed: They promoted him to get him into a better firing position, probably because they knew the investigation was coming, and the outlook for it wasn't that good. So they prepared a fall guy.
J. Allen Brack's biggest mistake was to take the glowing hot potato that is Blizzard in its current state, and trying to cool it by just gently blowing on it. All while it's burning his hands. Firing him sends a signal to the rest of Blizzard that "no one is safe here, so you better shape up and meet the goals. Activision's goals, that is."
Bobby can now sit back, while the whole world blames Blizzard itself for being in a decline for the last decade, and he has seemingly clean hands. Wouldn't surprise me if all those diversity hires were the idea of Bobby's lieutenants he installed since 2013.

Shit JAB as much as a worthless smug cunt that he is, surely got a sweet golden parachute and is playing in Bobbys Scrooge McDuck style swimming pool as we speak. You don't fall on the sword for free.
I feel really sorry for him

^^^ Fucking this!
The number of streamers clutching their pearls and 'protest quitting' WoW and switching to FFXIV to make them appear morally superior is fucking laughable. Don't like WoW? OK.. fine, switch, but the fake outrage and desperate attempt to continue making money from this situation is beyond pathetic.
