If there is one upside to the Microsoft/ActiBlizz merger, then it is that this parasite will finally get out of the gaming industry. Kotick has shown again and again that he barely knows what his studios actually did. He infamously stalled the development of games with his incompetence, burdening devs with needless extra work.

So that guy now thinks he knows what the future of gaming is going to look like? Get f***ed, Kotick!

Do you guys not have brain implants?

People are perfectly happy booting up machines and using external HIM devices to interact with them. If VR didn't explode to the new norm, why the fuck would brain chips?

I'm somebody who hasn't tried VR due to like 4 different problems that relate to money (VR itself, GPU, floor space, games) plus I'm pretty sure I'd have motion sickness as well due to health issues. Out-of-body VR is an escapist fantasy of mine but I'd still steer clear of anything involving techbros.

I'd sooner make a deal to give my brain to some rando who somehow has a cryonic freezer in their basement.

The same Neuralink whose primate test cases all had to be euthanized after their procedures due to a whole host of problems that were claimed to have nothing to do with the implants? That Neuralink?

I think I'll stick with my PC, Bob.

What could possibly go wrong?
