Activision has also come under fire for the overuse of microtransactions and “pay-to-win” content in the Call of Duty franchise, and desecrating the first-person shooter genre with the game Overwatch.
How does Overwatch “desecrate” the first-person shooter genre?
That’s funny cos I’m from poland and it seems that our government really likes to import all the bad stuff from your country. It started in HU and then in 2015 they won election in PL and started doing this crap literally mirroring everything. Including hatred on Soros.
Funny how this guy isn’t even anywhere close on Top 10 richest people list, yet he’s portrayed as some sort of supervillain that’s able to influence entire countries and bring their sovereignity to its knees xD
okay and? you’re the guy who made the thread baiting about the gay couple so I can tell what you’re doing here.
Soros isn’t a deepstate leftist you morons. Real leftists want rich people like him dead.
There is no smoke without fire. That’s all I am going to say here.
inb4 we get people on the forum saying that adding store mounts is a deepstate leftist liberal antifa soros conspiracy theory to destroy Gamers
No you don’t understand the game is doomed because the rich elite like George Soros (which definitely isn’t an underhanded way of saying jewish people) are now going to control the media and indoctrinate Gamers into being gay liberal antifa deepstate agents.
No conspiracy here, these are all just clear fact.
That website has about a thousand pop up ads just for those tentative to click lmfao! Plus its a far right conspiracy theory maga tinfoil hat site.
BLM made activision sell store mounts dontchaknownow? 
do you realize that there is a fairly large country in the EU that has a national TV completely overtaken by right-wing populist propaganda?
Recently there was a big wave of protests in Poland. Reason doesn’t matter that much. What does the national TV portray them as?
“LEFTARD FASCISM DESTROYS POLAND”
Yep, this is exactly what the headline said. Not even leftist. They actually used LEFTARD in official news broadcast.
It used to be rather amusing for me but now I’m actually worried. The propaganda served there is extreme. Goebbels could learn from them.
So a real demon will own parts of Blizzard now. They need to buff up Havoc DH once again.
You joke but there are people here who probably unironically think thats the truth.
Obviously BfA was because of Soros funding Antifa developers for world of warcraft and the money from store mounts goes to China and Cuba.
Yeah, I know stuff like this is happening. It’s horrible. I’ve heard about the Polish protests in response to the horrid stuff their government is doing right now.
Yeah, it’s not a surprise there’s actual mental cases here who think he’s part of a conspiracy theory with how pervasive the propaganda about it is in many parts of the EU.
Prepare for lgbt and BLM propaganda in wow lul
Ah, yes, he bought them in March 2020, in anticipation of a strong year for gaming. This clearly influenced Blizzard in 2017 to write BFA as a left-leaning expansion with strong feminist presence in the writing. As we all know, Soros can influence companies retroactively.
One thing you should know about Soros is that the guy knows money. He knows how to manipulate money. His politics is money. If he supports more lefty, open politics, it is because these politics will generate more money. He didn’t acquire his wealth through being lefty, he acquired it through insight and manipulation.
The reason why more and more companies adopt lefty politics is that despite conservative complaining… these politics bring the money. It’s been at least a decade since this began and companies have only grown disproportionately bigger.
In other news, back in 2014 during GG, we discovered Bobby Kotick goes to the Pentagon because CoD is in fact US Military propaganda. So at the same time as they’re pushing Soros’ politics, they also have to push right wing separatist politics on top of that and basically…
… you should take off the tinfoil hat. Putting it on in fact amplifies the rays, it doesn’t block them at all.
It is true, Soros did invest in Activision. He doubled his prior investment. He owned around 350k shares, now he owns around 700k. The reason he invested in Activision is that there’s an expected great return on investment.
At least some wow players will get a first job in their lives that way
Some mindless sheep actually defend corporations and billionaire “philanthropists” while complaining about injustices in society. It’s hysterically ironic.
There’s other mindless sheep who hate a Jew simply for being good at capitalism.
I don’t think you should read too much into it, even with a purchase of 45 million USD, he will still be holding only a minority share holder position. It bought him roughly 700k shares, in a company that has millions of shares. He might be holding roughly 0,11%, which is a very far cry away from what is required to be determined a majority.
You know how they say “no child left behind”? Perhaps those kids need to be left behind…
He owns 700k shares in a company with close to 800 million shares. Your math is right - he owns around ~0.11%, not enough to be an influence. When dealing with such corporate scales one needs to know $45 million is pittance.
Ah, George Soros.
The man vilified and accused of doing things for the left people like the Koch Brothers have been openly doing for decades for the right. And somehow shoehorned into being behind every little piece of social progressivism because apparently no-one could actually agree with that stuff.
But he’s definitely not a right wing/anti-semetic bogeyman, oh no!
