He's gone out on top, Legion is a blast, and I said I was never coming back to wow. Livin the dream buddy, enjoy retirement.
I don't play games for story so I can't comment on that.

If I was him, I'd retire too after destroying that many franchises.

The ultimate power over something you are responsible for creating is that to destroy it.

What exactly? They're still making money hand over fist. What is it with people here and hating things that make money?

I have a feeling that on some level, this guy is getting older now and looking back on what he's done and thinking, "Man, I fucked up. It's time to stop."
Yeah he made money, but that's because people buy hype, not good writing.
Thanks Chris, we all thought it was time to give it up quite a few years ago.
