Xbox buys Activision Blizzard – Sierra revival when? – Cannot be Tamed

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbyEbUD2hCk

0:00 – She’s detailing when and where she was when she first heard the news that Xbox was buying Activision Blizzard.  The news came out at about 8:30 am, she was in bed, picked up her phone, checked Twitter, saw the tweet about this, it was about a minute after the news broke, and she said, “Holy shit.  That’s a huge, huge deal.”

This is like how people still remember where they were when they heard the news that Kennedy was assassinated.  These are the machinations of video game corporations.  Who cares?  Companies buy other companies all of the time.  

Then she says for the rest of the day, everyone on Twitter, at least the people she follows, were “Having the same reaction to this news.”

Am I missing something?  I mean, I didn’t even know that Activision owned Blizzard or vice versa.  Or that either of these companies owned Sierra.  I don’t keep up with this shit.  Does anybody?  Shareholders of the companies maybe?  People who work at the companies?  But does anyone else?  

0:45 – “This deal went for 69 billion dollars which makes it an incredibly big acquisition.”

Hehe.  69.  Am I right, fellas?  Pam is 69’ing with her dog.

1:15 – She lists some Activision Blizzard games that are a part of this deal. 

1:30 – She starts an anti-monopoly rant.  

3:30 – She talks about a sexual harassment lawsuit against Activision Blizzard.  She wants everybody to be fired even though these are just allegations.  

5:45 – Pam says that she’s subscribed to four different streaming tv services.  Why?

My tv broke like eight years ago and I never bothered replacing it.  I’ve never watched any streaming services like there are BBC streams and whatever.  I’ve never subscribed to Netflix or any of that shit.  

There are pirate streaming sites that have just about everything that you could possibly ask for, and I’m aware of them, but I don’t really use them.

It’s not like I’m sitting here reading books and listening to classical music, though.  There’s fucking Youtube.  That’s my main source of entertainment.  Who needs million dollar television productions when you have such high quality productions as Erin Plays and Talking About Tapes?  All for free.  Free content.  

8:15 – She suggests that this merger could result in the revival of Sierra series.  Oh, do tell.

She says that the developers of Quest for Glory and Space Quest are still making games.  That’s true.  They’re also like 70 years old.  And as she says, they’ve released games.  If she wants to play another Quest for Glory game, get Hero-U.  She knows about the game.  She named it in this very video.  I see that she also made a video on it three years ago.

I was briefly interested in the game but never bothered playing it.  It seemed to get good enough reviews but I’m just not interested in these kind of games any more.  

Pam mentioned recently, I don’t know where, that she was working on a story to Quest for Glory IV.  Some kind of fan fiction, I guess.  Erotic fiction, presumably.  Katrina getting it on with Rusalka while the Burgomeister watches.

Some good comments.  Nothing worth copying and pasting but a lot of people take issue with it not being a monopology.  Pam aka CannotBeEntertaining responds to each and every one of these comments with an angry paragraph explaining that she never said it was a monopoly.

She’s right, she didn’t say that, but who gives a shit?  These are horny retards.  Why does she get so bothered by what they say?  

– “Why leave Police Quest off the table??”

Pam replies, “We don’t need more games where we play cops.”

Pam always just hops on whatever woke bandwagon happens to be passing by.  If dog fucking ever becomes on-trend, she’ll be…oh wait.  She’s already on board with that one.

– “Metal Jesus worked for Sierra it would be cool seeing him working for them again. Sierra really was done dirty and I think they would make a huge impact if they came back in a big way.”

Yeah, he can start answering the hint line phones again.  Explaining to ten year olds how to get the magic wand from the evil wizard’s safe.

Actually, how did you get that wand?  Was it in a safe?  I think that it was.  But how did you figure out the combination?  Surely the safe was locked.  Whatever.  I’ll just call the 1-900 Sierra hint line number and talk to Metal Jesus for $3.99/minute.

Anyway, most of the comments are from angry right-wingers extoling the virtues of multinational corporations and Pam leaves angry replies to many of them.  Again…who cares?  These people are literally retarded.  They’re there to jerk off, not hear your half-baked ideas on the workers’ state.

  1. There's an actual reason people are upset over the Activision thing and it's because fanboys of companies (especially Sony) are incredibly scared that the new shitty Call of Duty 89 or whatever won't be on Play Station. That's literally it. Nothing more.

  2. “Pam says that she's subscribed to four different streaming tv services.”I've never understood why people need so many entertainment options. it's not like you'll ever have the time to enjoy them all, even if you're a pensioner. if you have an internet connection, you already have access to countless sources of materials and media, enough to keep you entertained for 6 lifetimes. there are books, movies, series, cartoons, songs, articles, foreign language courses, tutorials, nes roms, collaborative wikis etc. and not only the public domain stuff, even proprietary material can be promptly searched and downloaded without much effort. and all for free. i'll never understand paying for the sake of paying. or consuming as an end in itself
