Part 2/10:
In August, Blizzard appointed Jen O’Neill, an industry veteran with nearly 20 years of experience—including work on titles like Destiny 2 and Tony Hawk—as co-leader alongside Mike Ibarra. Her arrival was framed by the company as a move towards improving diversity and combating a "frat boy" culture that had long haunted Blizzard’s reputation. However, just three months into her role, O’Neill announced her departure, ostensibly to "explore how I can do more to have games and diversity intersect."
