Blizzard has already lost it’s soul to corporate greed a long time ago. Nothing to see here but empty cash grab husks.
We hear you valued customer, that’s why we are happy to announce Overwatch 3! Note: overwatch 2 will be inaccessible when 3 launches.
“Coincidentally, Overwatch 3 will also be inaccessible when Overwatch 3 launches, because not enough people will have learned their lesson”
Finally, Overwatch 3 is Overwatch 2 with an extra map, and a new subscription model.
But this time we will release PvE for sure (someday)!
That’s Microsoft favorite part. You don’t have to keep selling it
Ok, but how much Blizzard is even left at Blizzard? lol
Around tree fiddy.
Can they please not? I’d rather not have Blizzard stay Blizzard, seeing what they did to WoW, SC2, D3, D4, DI, Overwatch and worst of all, Heroes of the Storm.
And to their employees
The age of empire remasters was pretty so probably nah
Have they done something to SC2? I quit playing that game years ago, but it seemed like they were done touching it, and it was still in its original glory.
Yeah they just stopped updating it and let all their RTS talent go to other companies to make their own games.
The most recent expansion for WoW has been really good. Blizzard has been transparent with their changes and have been listening to the community. Recently the alpha for the next expansion has released and seems very promising with positive response from the community.
So I disagree, I’m glad microsoft is letting blizzard developers do their own thing. After the tumultuous expansion Shadowlands, a lot of the old guard for blizzard were removed and the current executive producer Holly Longdale has been doing a great job.
Oh I had not yet heard that they’re turning the ship around. That’s really really cool. After all this time I just stopped following stuff around it since it got so depressing over the years.
She’s the one from WoWC, right?
She was working on classic before being promoted to her current position. Regardless, the entire wow dev team has been incredible these past few months. There has been such an influx of news of upcoming content these coming weeks its almost hard to keep up. Hoping that they can keep on the gas as The War Within comes out.
I want the old Blizzard back. The one that didn’t release a game until it was finished. And then kept fine tuning. The one that was ducking great
better destroy capitalism then
It reminds me of the line of defense some people have over sexual harassers - most recently Gérard Depardieu “oh it’s Gérard, that’s just how he is, leave him be” when he got sexually explicit in front of a 7yo
Wait, do they mean 2016 Blizzard, or 2024 Blizzard? I feel like no one is happy letting 2024 Blizzard stay…
Funny thing is, now it’s adding to the list of terrible failing games Microsoft has put out from companies that used to matter. Who remembers Redfall?
They gonna let blizz be blizz, insofar as microsoft gonna keep giving the macroshaft. They gonna fuck you, but when they’re done, they let you keep your ass. Wouldn’t be much use to them without it…
