    All these names make sense when one understands Irish grammar and pronunciations, but I can absolutely see how people elsewhere would struggle with these.











  • I personally only started to become interested in Blizzard while Overwatch 1 was in its prime. I have so many cherished memories of playing with my friends every night when I came home from work.

    But since about 2019, there has been no excuse for the absolute shit show that Blizzard has been.

    The whole thing of Blitzchung and his comments about the Hong Kong protests being shut down

    The sexual assaults and bullying culture that was pervasive there

    Then Jeff Kaplan leaving

    Followed by the absolute sham that Overwatch 2 is.

    Plus all the shit that has been revealed about Bobby Kottick

    Not to mention how they’ve basically abandoned Heroes of the Storm, and StarCraft since Overwatch and WoW were more profitable.

    I fucking abhor and detest what this heap of poxy shit that whole organization has become. I do hope that maybe the Microsoft acquisition will improve things, but they’ll have their work cut out trying to repair the reputation there.
