NBA did the same thing.

Their Chinese statement was way more apologetic than the English one.

While the NBA's Chinese statement denounces what was said, it also affirms their commitment to freedom of speech. The NBA stance and the Blizzard stance are very different. Blizzard seems to show zero backbone and zero support for free speech.
There are a lot of pandering people in the games industry. Take riot games for example with the recent fiasco they've been involved with.
