No Jesse, don't stop or talk about it less. People need to hear about this as many times as it takes

[michaelweber]

Kotick is a good example for how psychopaths are best at climbing to the top in our society.

[Veggieman]

TB would be proud to see you carrying the torch for consumer/worker/general kindness advocacy like this, Jesse. You’re going after Kotick like Edward R. Murrow went after Joe McCarthy. Only with more goofs.

[bleusabertooth]

Kotick is such a gross little man, I really appreciate you being so genuine in your coverage of him and so consistent in your ask for companies to do better

[DeEnDubleyoo]

The AAA industry thrives on silence and gamer apathy. Not talking about the horrific things they do only serves their interests. Never stop talking about it, even when "duh gamurz" push back

[nightmarecrazy]

Bobby is the epitome of being overpaid and out of touch. Not to mention that having a union would cut into his bottom line, and he won’t be having any of that.

[Dudeidunno]

Jesse you're one of the purest fans I know. You care about Blizzards IP. Anyone who says you shouldn't use your voice to rant about something you care about isn't someone worth listening to. You're doin' good guy

[axelexplode]

I feel Jesse's passion. Bobby has poisoned the well of blizzard

[makomarquis]

Its enraging this guy is still in charge. I wont spend a dime on anything Activision Blizzard until he is gone and real change is made. I hope more people see this video and decide what to do with their time and money. Great Job Jesse, stay vigilant.

[innocentbrowncoat]

Kotick is one of the main reasons I don't even want to touch D4

[mocrentheorcgamer]

Keep talking about them Jesse. I'm spreading the word not to touch blizzard games until Kotick is gone. I think you're doing great work covering this stuff and keeping his corruption in the public eye.

[opexe]

Don't ever let up, these monstrous people should not have their actions buried and forgotten.

[infinitivez]

You and Stephanie Sterling are the only two that I know who won't let Kotick just slither back under the table to be forgotten, and I'm thankful for it. Esp when a fluff piece like this hits the scene. He doesn't get to wash off the dirt he continues to wallow in.

[AlfiereOT]

Keep calling him out Jesse. It is important for the gaming community as large to remember what an awful person he is, and how Activision-Blizzard CAN’T change its culture if he continues to be the CEO. The blatant lies he told on the interview need to be called out. Good job, Jesse! We will continue to watch your coverage!

[CombativeMedic]

His mother was a teacher? Considering how he turned out, that's a frightening thought.

[Villain_in_Glasses]

Bobby Kotick, Randy Pitchford and Tim Sweeney the unholy Triforce of video games.
Put them all in a room and the toxicity will be so bad Miyazaki will show up to make a swamp level out of it.

[ShahroozSmith]

To be frank, there was an old TF2 gmod video (Heavy's Birthday) all the way back in 2012 that mocked Bobby Kotick by having his face on a dart board with Heavy throwing darts at him.
The Bobby Kotick hate has been around for a whole decade.

[loglog]

You’re not wrong that avoiding that news would probably be less upsetting. But avoiding gaming news on the biggest gaming company in the world isn’t easy either.

[adamc.rivera]

Keep bringing it up, Jesse. You're doing great!

[GoneFishingAmalgam]

Blizzard has no problem with abuse, according to Bobby Kotick, the CEO who threatened to kill his secretary.
