Blizzard was (still is?) Activision for a number of years as well, so that didn't help. There is much more to blame and I can't even begin to pretend like I know all of it, though.

My own complaint is similar though. When "profit at all costs" takes over, and knowing how to make a quality game is lost, there is usually little hope left.

Saying that Blizzard pursues profit at all costs is inaccurate, unfair, and frankly slanderous.

Blizzard would NEVER sacrifice their rampant misogyny to make more money
