It's unlikely Microsoft will be able to close the deal in June--but the move has sped up the legal process as Microsoft anticipated.

    Good. Abusive monopolies and already too big and too powerful corporations like Microsoft should never be allowed to become even bigger and more powerful They should be split up.

    While I also don’t want a mega-corp overlord, I’d look forward of Microsoft acquiring Blizzard. Or anyone acquiring Blizzard, really. Something has to change in that company.

  • 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy “anti-woke” energy, you probably shouldn’t be posting it here.
  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
