  Why would they do that? CoD is a better investment. This is MS. Not some fan boy.

    They need more games for their pass.

      But do they need the games to be good? Activions sucks balls, but why would microsoft make the games good again and remove all the shit with microtransactions etc.?

        If the games are good and non-exploitative it would in theory drive up Game Pass subscriptions.

  They would just contract Blizzard to make that, so if they were able to do it they would have done so already.

    Since when was that a thing that Blizzard does?

  I haven’t played it but I have read that Diablo 4 has been mostly well received. I guess there’s been a fiasco about one of the updates to it, but that’s not something unique to Blizzard and theoretically could be fixed in another update, no?
