Remember, this is happening along with this:
NBA just lost billions. Activision don't have thick skin to lose billions.
Really? No NBA in China, at all?

The only thing you can really deprive them of right now is a WoW subscription and a WC3:R preorder. It's like we're back in the 00s again.Almost too easy to boycott Blizzard.
They only make games once a blue moon and their current output has been pretty lacking as well.
"They are only reports by tribunal, human rights activists, etc."
Oh, only reports done by human rights activists, lawyers, researchers & scholars (I guess that's the "etc" part?), huh? Well, then it certainly can't mean anything.
Here is the actual full report full of evidence, quotes and witnesses:
Capitalism was thought to make China more like the western world.
Instead Capitalism is making the western world more like China.
Fucking Amazing.
GODS UNCHAINED STANDS BY BANNED HEARTHSTONE PLAYER BLITZCHUNG

Man fuck this pandering to China bullshit. Don't want Diablo Immortal to suffer!
Tencent owns
Riot Games (100%)
Supercell (84.3%)
Epic Games (40%)
Activision Blizzard (5%)
Ubisoft (5%)
Paradox Interactive (5%)
The Chinese market is rarely more lucrative than the US market, but it is an incredible money maker that is growing rapidly. And pandering to China's whims doesn't cost companies anything domestically.Nor does any corporation. The China market is far more lucrative than the American market. China's bullshit is going to cause more shit like this.
Also wtf is Activision saying in all this?
I only know the right one.. he's "Virtual" Taiwanese HS player.
While Blizzard should be criticized, let's not act like any other capitalistic company wouldn't do the same. Things are going to get worse with China's increasing power and influence.
About time I delete by battle.net account. Make memes about comparing xi jinping to solider 76 and overwatch will get banned.
Just their integrity.And pandering to China's whims doesn't cost companies anything domestically.
YesSo can we start treating Blizzard/Acti like people treat THQN now? I mean this feels far more disgraceful and corrupt than holding an AMA in a shitty attempt to be edgy. I hope so because fuck Blizzard and Activision, this should not be forgotten.
Yes. I actually feel more strongly about this..So can we start treating Blizzard/Acti like people treat THQN now? I mean this feels far more disgraceful and corrupt than holding an AMA in a shitty attempt to be edgy. I hope so because fuck Blizzard and Activision, this should not be forgotten.
"It was formed by 'The International Coalition To End Transplant Abuse In China' (ETAC), a notfor-profit coalition of lawyers, medical professionals and others dedicated to ending what they assert to have been, and to be, the practice of forced organ harvesting in China.1"
ETAC is run by many Epoch Times journalists. Their Executive Director, Co-founder -Susie Hughes.
You can search some of the members with Epoch Times to get the links.
Epoch Times is run by FLG members.
Recent news of ET - Sneaking pro-trump propaganda on facebook.
We can hate CCP all we want, but it is just too convenient to blame them with evidence from FLG which is known to spreading these propaganda since last 2 decades.

It would be a shame if Blizzard had a major publicly streamed event happening next month and tons of people were wearing Support Hong Kong shirts had signs, and asked uncomfortable questions.
Question: if I bought COD MW, how much of my money would go to Activision? I was interested in the game but I can certainly live without it after this shit
I've been fuming about this all morning, I'm surprised at how much this hit me. This is actually disgusting.So can we start treating Blizzard/Acti like people treat THQN now? I mean this feels far more disgraceful and corrupt than holding an AMA in a shitty attempt to be edgy. I hope so because fuck Blizzard and Activision, this should not be forgotten.
That's (of course) true, but unfortunately a company's integrity rarely impacts its bottom line in a way we would hope it does.

which you can see is worth nothing
