People are overreacting

What good is a company if it can't make you money? You can't make money unless you make people happy. I have full confidence tencent will make people happy to make thier investment back and then some.

You will be happy.

Tencent won’t make us happy or unhappy.

GGG are doing work, and Tencent are taking 80% of the money that work nets them. They’ve no real reason to inject themselves in GGG’s affairs - or the western gaming market - if the people already there know what they’re doing. So long as the player base is growing and revenue is climbing, they’ll be content to stay out of the way. As for the Chinese version... well, that was already theirs.

How much micromanaging do you think they do in LoL or Fortnite? Tencent likely view buying western game development studios similarly to how western game development studios view hiring employees. First you spend money on people, then the people make you more money.

Not overreacting, but stating a fact:

Blizzard : Diablo 2
Activision Blizzard: Diablo 3

Need I say more?

I agree with Sarno, Tencent doesn't want to micromanage companies, they want to lob millions of dollars at companies and collect on their shares. This really is getting blown out of proportion (per usual.)
