Bobby Kotick, CEO of Activision Blizzard, emailed employees after news of Microsoft’s successful $69 billion acquisition to say that he was “fully committed to helping with the transition” and that he would stay on as CEO through the end of 2023.

    I’m not into consoles so as long as there’s PC support, I’m good. I wouldn’t call something exclusive if it’s on PC… As long as there isn’t a crippling anti-cheat, that means it can be played on Linux!

      But there’s people who don’t play on pc. That’s a pretty crappy thing to say. ‘i don’t care about it unless it affects me.’
      I console game, cause I grew up on consoles, I can’t do the whole sitting in a pc chair thing. There’s more than just people who play pc. And if it’s on pc only, that is pc exclusive.

        Picking up a console means locking yourself down to (and supporting) a platform designed around creating exclusives. PC games aren’t locked down and can work on a much wider range of hardware and even operating systems.

        I use my PC almost exclusively from the couch with my OLED TV. Sometimes from bed with a tablet on a flexible arm via Sunshine/Moonlight.
