Bad news. The WoW team should feel our support, and company leadership our disapproval.

Me and my brothers stopped playing Blizzard Games, and Blizzard use to be our favorite game company. Activision is evil.
Mike is a puppet
Good vid dude! But i was done supporting /giving money to them ,as soon as they got bought out for years. Speak with your wallets people! These days we got bosses and not leaders!. Microsoft won't save them ether! Let them die and rot. Let it go. Move on. Speak with your wallets people! The board/heads at microsoft will be the same! The Blizzard we grew up died long time ago. Remove the nostalgia goggles people! Why would the they care if you keep giving them money for less! We are enabling this! This why the game industry as gone to shit!
It's only going to get worse, the economy has been fucked for way too long, too many BOT's and boosting services, even if you did manage to get into a raid guild they would just be parsing arseholes.
Although I might agree with some of the points brought up in this video, especially the points based on pay structure. I was quite disappointed how the frustration and criticism was so heavily directed at an individual rather than the actions. Name calling is immature, and reductive to the issue at hand. It shows a lack of professionalism and was wuite disgusting to see. By attaching apl of these issues to the individual and focusing on that, it allows everyone else responsible for these problems hide behind that fall guy. Disagreeing with what he's said is fine too. It's fine if you think he's an ignoramous too, but keep that to yourself. I feel you might be best to stick to the facts, and your thoughts on the actions and their impact on others.
A concerned fan on the future of this channel.
In the end Mike will be fine because he know that blizzard fans will keep giving them money and shower them with praise not metter how much shit they do to their employees over the years.
hahaha I've hated Mike for ages and your hatred of him made my day
Doomular back at it again, make some decent content for a change
thats one of the reasons why i am glad not to be back at the moment in wow …future of this game is uncertain
Oh no, Blizzard is making me actually get off my ass and drive to work!! HOW DARE THEY!!! Good job simping for a bunch of pussies.
Asmongold is 100% correct, the decision to eliminate the work-from-home policy was above Mike. We wouldn't see King and Activision also doing the same thing unless it came from the Top. It's not just happening in the gaming industry, it's across all industries with work-from-home and phasing it out to at least a hybrid.
I ❤seeing Bellular with some balls. Everything Bellular Mike says is true. An ex of mine worked at Blizzard and I felt was seriously in a cult, accepting the low pay to work at "Blizzard". They got their staff to work for pennies. I wonder what he would do if Mike Ybarra was in charge while he worked there
Considering Blizzard is OUTSOURCING More than 50% of the CONTENT to other DEVS what does it matter…..
$200k in Kalifornia is like earning 25k in my state of Kentucky.
Also telling people they HAVE TO COME TO WORK OR BE FIRED IS HOW YOU RUN A COMPANY.
WoWs CS is submit a ticket, TWO DAYS LATER they send a CUT AND PASTE RESPONSE telling you they cant help you.
SOMEONE just woke UP to what WoW has been for the LAST TEN YEARS.
The disgusting amount of unfixed bugs and NEW ONES plus the piss poor customer service definitely makes a lot more sense now
Growing up I've always heard that Blizzard pays less then everyone else but this was back in the days of WoW being the king and they have an unlimited amount of dreamers to throw into the fire if only they can get a fancy sword. That this is happening means the furnace is still lit.
Blizzard: "You guys gotta come in to the office". Employees: " Do you guys not have phon….. cable connections from Blizzard to our home computers?".
gamers don't understand business at all, its all about the GREEEENN!!!
A lot of tech companies did this last year, happened to me, company i work for isnt directly gaming but this strategy is common in tech at the moment
I definitely understand where they're coming from, my company (which I knew was coming) added a three day mandatory in the office work week; meanwhile, the company revenue went up over 120%, and we hired hundreds of remote workers but they're forcing people who live near (within 75 miles) the office back into the office and what annoys me about is they keep calling "its good for our CuLtUrE" but provide no data to backup their reason for the forced office days and all those remote workers we hired won't experience this "CuLtUrE." Then to proceed sideline us, they're offering a Work from Anywhere where you get to where from anywhere for a whole week up to four weeks a year… I mean its something…
well said,put them out and get people with vision!!! FIX THE STUTTERS.
A lot of people have no idea how hard it is to get a job at Blizzard, imagine being one of the best at what you do worldwide and working at one of the biggest companies and earn half as much as people in other similar companies because your employee is praying on your passion for the job.
I can't believe people still support blizzard
He’s running it like a toxic guild
So they have to actually go back to the office now? Boo hoo, cry me a freaking river. I think one of the worst things Covid did is make Westerns even MORE entitled, I didn't think that was even possible.
Fairly sure his salary is north of 300k. Enough to make Jen Oneal walk away within months after not getting paid the same.
Climbing quests are still broken sometimes. Small indie company.
Just when it was getting good, it became too good to be true. I'll be taking my business elsewhere, done with WoW permanently. Heres to 15+ years down the toilet!
2:24 That's the world for you. Mediocre people have conquered it and having such people in high, powerful positions is the norm more than something to be surprised of, shamefully…
It is better to get people to quit than fire them.
And game companies will be surprised when Unions are formed?
Thank you Bellular for calling him out!
I am pretty sure riot were fishing a lot of devs lately 👀
This whole "you have to be in the office" is some real boomer nonsense. There's a sunk cost fallacy at play here. They've invested money in real estate that they feel needs to be full. My company is doing the same thing under the guise of "collaboration". It's nonsense. They don't care about work life balance, they care about controlling you. Stand firm, Blizz employees.
I've seen Belluar make a shit ton of videos about Wow. He almost never states that someone should be fired even when things were in the absolute shiter. The only times I've seen Mike say people should be fired is when the harassment stuff was brought to light and this vid. Holy shit Yibara fucked up.
An executive detached from the reality of front line employees? Nah, that doesn't happen…
Oh, Mike lying about not knowing Preach was a power move, used my narcissist's. He either is one or became one by working up through Blizzard. Either way, it's abuse towards his customers and his underlings.
