like very deliberate good guy image the thing they've been working on since the xbox one days um yes since the late xbox one days of like oh we really blew it uh and trying to put it all back together again um and i wonder uh like so i guess like yeah to back up a little bit no one has publicly said hey bobby coddick is out uh in fact they they probably legally can't say that but uh sources talking the wall street journal are saying that he's expected to leave with the close of the deal that's you know in contrast with like an ign story that was like no he's going to continue on based on what a microsoft spokesperson told us but it's kind of like one of those things where it's like of course they would say that because they kind of can't tamper with that company before they actually own it um exactly yeah and all that sort of stuff so it's the kind of thing where you you you you expect this to be the reason the deal happened it almost certainly is the reason the deal happened now we just got to wait until june NUMBER_TOKEN for this to all close and see how it's going to play out and and microsoft's not going to be able to say anything really they're going to have to go into like a silent period for this entire time just like they did with bethesda yeah exactly they're they're not going to be able to like make those sorts of the changes that i think a lot of people are calling for like hey that guy's got to go um and yeah this this will end up dragging out a lot longer than i think anyone will want when it comes to that guy but um at the same time activision ships one game a year so it's you know uh you're not gonna hear a lot about them the first half of this year anyway um let's see serious um i'm just curious of what this might mean for the unionization efforts going on with the activision blizzard uh with all this uh new developments going on you the thing you hope is that this leads to a lot of the concerns being addressed right like obviously a lot of bad things have happened to that company over the years uh working there has not sounded like a good time for a variety of reasons you know right down to the the people at raven striking and the qa situation there um that across the board there's been a lot of um PROFANITY_TOKEN happening over there for a good long time you can't just wave a wand and say like our corporate culture is fixed but you know my understanding is that the corporate culture at microsoft is uh better than activisions i guess i would say no one is perfect right but right um but hopefully you get to a situation where like people that have things they need to report to hr are being heard and that things are being dealt with and of course the increased scrutiny of everything that's been hacking and activision probably leads to microsoft being very diligent when it comes to uh responding to that stuff once their hands are on the wheel that's going to be a while right um and so the unionization efforts like it probably also does not do that part any favors um so it's like that double-edged
