ulkesh , to gaming in FTC loses again, Microsoft is now clear to close the Activision-Xbox deal in the US
@ulkesh@beehaw.org avatar

As expected. I’m eager to see how everything will play out. I’m happy Kotick will finally be completely gone, but I’m not happy about consolidation.

Hylirica ,

Precisely how I feel about it, too. I’m glad ActiBlizz employees will hopefully have a better working environment. Plus, I can play WoW again without supporting a human-sized scrotum. 😁

But the sheer size of Microsoft at this point is a bit alarming. It’s like watching Disney buying Marvel and LucasArts: a looming giant that will either fall or trample everything underfoot.

At the time I was excited about the consolidation of Marvel IP and what it could mean. Avengers, X-Men, Fantastic 4 all under one roof? Exciting!

Now, I’m so burned out on all of it I just stopped watching. They went so hard to get ALL of my time that they now get none of it.

Rentlar ,

My boycot of Starcraft is until Kotick leaves or a verifiable change in culture at (Acti-)Blizzard, I can’t believe I’m cheering for Microsoft to kick that money-grubbing gremlin of a CEO out.

Kerred , to steamdeck in Valve just proved the Steam Deck is still unchallenged by its rivals — here's why
@Kerred@lemmy.ml avatar

Has any info been leaked about the profit margin Steam Decks are for Valve?

I get it’s a loss leader to increase Steam software purchases, but would be neat to know how much of any they earn per deck.

I’ll pick one up once they release a model with OLED. My Nintendo Switch has it, and it would be really hard to go back.

See you in 2026 lol

I’ll be surprised if it’s that soon. Most consoles have 6-7 year life cycles.

@gary_host_laptop@lemmy.ml avatar

How is the government going to handle the use of public computers if Microsoft is getting out of Russia? I mean, I’m sure they already have a lot of pirated copies and old versions of Windows, as any (at least third world) country does, but at some point I don’t see any option to either pirate every copy of Windows or start using Linux.
