Just like you said with ES and Falllout. The A.I. is the same. The mechanics are even more similar. Only thing different is the setting.
The official opinions from Sony, Ubisoft, WB, BN, Apple, Riot, Google and more about the Activision Blizzard acquisition

This is just incorrect. Not even sure what else to say, you are just wrong here.
TLOU has the same shyt. The movement and gameplay is the same.
Elder scrolls and fallout have very different enemies types, Fallout has base building mechanics, etc.
For whatever reason you are pretending all the difference between ES and Fallout don’t exist, while also exaggerating the differences between TLOU and uncharted.
example A: sony picks up marketing rights for CoD after Xbox drops it
example B: Microsoft spends 70 billion dollars to buy the entire publisher
@MeachTheMonster : same thing
Nope, it’s not same thing. What sony did is worse. Spend millions to take content off the other console. Make it so the other console and the publisher can’t even acknowledge the game is on their system.
Microsoft buys the publisher to secure content for their subscription service, but still allows the game, content, and marketing to exist as it has been.
@Sony stan’s: “Big bad microsoft fukking up the industry”
So did Sony get those marketing rights from Activision/Blizzard?
You mean going forward?
As far as i know microsoft said they would honor any agreements already signed.
Legally they have no choice
If EA is smart they really should be preparing Respawn into making the next blockbuster shooter because there could be a reality where COD moves away from Playstation. I have no faith in Dice in doing that
This is not true at all.Legally they have no choice
Respawn is EA's last saving grace
I’m sure they could buy them out if they wanted to.Legally they have no choice
I'm talking about this, "Nope, it’s not same thing. What sony did is worse. Spend millions to take content off the other console. Make it so the other console and the publisher can’t even acknowledge the game is on their system." Wouldn't that still require an agreement with the publisher to do such a thing? I'm just trying to figure out what Sony actually did.
That’s not how contracts work. Pre existing contracts are what you acquire as well in the deal
Now if you offer whomever an amount of money to make it worth agreeing to break the contract

It 100% is true
Been through multiple acquisitions in my industry
The only way “out” is the other party has to agree. And in those cases the money makes it worth it. Cheaper to just ride out pre existing deals and let ‘em expire.
Case in point, look at the X-men movie properties. The Fox movie actors are still contractually obligated to play those those roles until 2025. Marvel waiting to recast until that deal is up.
Even college football, those teams switching conferences are doing it after their current contact tv deals expire.
Lol at thinkin you can Willy nilly break contracts with no repercussions
