I see it the same way I’ve seen musicians and other artists that predate the internet. If I didn’t buy or consume their shit because I disagree with their politics then I wouldn’t have much to look at or listen to. How is this different?I dunno how someone can give money to a company pushing this agenda. Is it not sending the wrong message?
I hope none will ever complain about SJW, when they give them money. That would be kinda hypocrite no?
Imagine someone trying to say they are the big guys ready to rise and take arms, and giving money to Blizzard and Netflix, would be funny
It's not. The enveloppe got pushed so fucking hard lately that i'm boycotting every trace of woke i can find.I see it the same way I’ve seen musicians and other artists that predate the internet.

I’m not really paying attention to who is saying what but why are you in the thread? I’m not chasing down anyone for not playing WoW - do whatever the fuck you like.It's not. The enveloppe got pushed so fucking hard lately that i'm boycotting every trace of woke i can find.
Life isn't really that much different and I'm not missing anything essential, i don't see a problem?
I guess the only counterargument would be that with music as an example. You dont kick every member out of the band and replace them with new members and sing new songs completely opposite of what the originals were, while bashing every former member of the band.I see it the same way I’ve seen musicians and other artists that predate the internet.

Why would Metzen -want- to come back? Seems to me that he won't be in a decision making position.

Bands usually break up and members go on to make new bands and write new songs about their agenda. If any original member stays, they usually hire fill ins and just play the hits and cash checks.
Even if they shifted some of their ressources to run a global release they'd still be people complaining about timezones, beginning the race in the afternoon instead of evening, US having less vacation days than EU, latency, etc. RWF isn't a show, it's a 2nd monitor screensaver when you're busy doing something else while waiting for something interesting to happen between raid breaks, casters talking about meaningless stuff, making lame jokes or wondering about Preach new hair.100% blizzard hotfixed (read nerfed) the last boss's 3rd phase so that the race would be over before xmas. But as usual, they fucked it up, as Echo killed the boss on a first pull after the nerf.

2 patches in a year is a brave promise and they have never kept to a schedule. Notice that 10.2 is after fall but they make no reference to when winter is, also 10.1 is after spring.So 2 Patches but we're gonna pretend its 6.
10.4? What? Did they even have a 9.3?That would imply a 2 year cadence which falls in line with other Activision Blizzard plans for a COD every 2 years, etc.
I imagine 10.4 would close out the expansion, and a 10.4.2.5 would basically be in as a filler with a ZM-style zone.
That's basically double the patches, but still 4 seasons. Comparable to Shadowlands having double the post-launch content (ended at 9.2.5).
As long as no major company shakeups / layoffs / sexual abuse allegations happen between now then, it's probably doable.
