Blizzard writes: "After careful consideration over the last year, we at Blizzard have made the decision not to hold BlizzCon in 2024. This decision was not made lightly as BlizzCon remains a very special event for all of us, and we know many of you look forward to it. While we’re approaching this year differently and as we have explored different event formats in the past, rest assured that we are just as excited as ever to bring BlizzCon back in future years."
How about you not hold Blizzcon anymore period. You fucking POS company. I really hope Blizzard would just die.
Microsoft has 'let Blizzard be Blizzard' following the acquisition of the veteran developer according to World of Warcraft's executive producer.
Diablo 4 storefront being a cash grabbing shitshow does unironically attest to that, kudos.
Okay i will be interested if they become old Blizzard but might as well be dead.
Shame most of the people that made Blizzard what they were, have already left a while ago.
Were you expecting Microsoft to hire everyone that had left Blizzard long before they purchased the company...
Microsoft has let the Blizzard company they purchased continue to be the Blizzard company they purchased.
Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra recently suggested an interesting concept that has sparked a debate among gamers - the idea of being able to tip developers after completing a game.
If I had a 100% way to be sure that this money would go to a fund or a reserve dedicated only to the guys who develop the games, be them designers, artists, programmers and so on, I could think about it.
But we all know that this 'tip' would only end up in a publisher's CEO pocket to buy a new yacht, so, no, I ain't tipping anyone anytime soon on this industry
So they eventually don't pay their workers and depend on our tips to pay them like the case with waiters!
Is this a joke? How about the big wigs giving up some of their pay for their hard working developers.
No.
Renting saves thousands of dollars a year.
I'm not rich. Maybe you are?
for me honestly, blockbuster and gamefly are the last things that even make consoles make sense, at least I could pay a cheap monthly and try a ton of games
there is ZERO chance of me buying a $400-$500 console, PAYING twice to use my internet to the tune of another $400-$500 for 7-8 years of the life cycle and then BUYING $65 games that after I am done with are worth virtually nothing
pass
I'll just stay on pc, game a full generation ahead of ps4/xbox1 and but $1 humble bundles that come with 5 games
steam sales
greenmangaming
amazon downloads
gog
backwards compatibility going back to the freaking 1970's
free mods that are better than 90% of console exclusives
and maybe, MAYBE when sony and ms wake up, and make their inferior machines actually priced correctly
for $200 and free online, then yeah.... I guess I'll grab one
Blockbuster's defunct a$$ needs to get an app up and running on Xbox One and PS4 and have DOWNLOADABLE rentals for games.
Be especially easy regardless of the current immense download sizes due in large part to the "play as you install" features. Dollar a day is the way.
I've played tons of games this gen thanks to Gamefly, and it will be the same next gen....so i'd say no
