Overwatch 2 has reportedly performed more than $225 million in revenue, exceeding the forecasts and KPIs by 130%.
Microtransactions have gotten ridiculously overpriced in recent years, with titles now offering cosmetic skins worth more than some games.
There never was, the only time I paid for a microtransaction was on Blacklight Retribution (PS4) and it was because I enjoyed the game a lot so I felt the devs should get something for all that entertainment (€5 "membership")
I couldn’t believe what Blizzard charged for horse armor and cosmetics in Diablo 4…
I remember back in the day when a season pass was $15 and you got everything included in it. Now, I see them at $60 and you still don’t get everything.
As soon as gaming wasn't deemed nerdy anymore, and reached the casuals this happened. We're smart, but casuals play mobile games and other stuff, and don't really have anything to compare. They think gaming is supposed to be like this and pay for in game purchases.
Tanks are getting some hefty buffs for the Overwatch 2 Season 10 midseason patch. After a lot of community discussion about the role feeling the worst to play for a while, the development team is changing some numbers to make these brutes harder for the enemy team to take advantage of.
Danish from eXputer: "Blizzard overpromised the PVE elements of Overwatch 2, and then failed to deliver on just about all of them, despite charging money."
No, no, no. Only the people that paid money let them get away with it. There’s no we.
Support Blizzard at your own risk.
Everyone that I know that used to play overwatch has quit at this point, I don't feel like they got away with it.
So if you just play this POS game without spending a cent Blizzard will not see a profit at all.
when I saw youtube videos around it, everyone claimed it was a flop/bad game. I am assuming it's a good game that's why people are playing it :)
Ah so that's why Blizzard employees got fired, *only* beating expectations by 130%.
🖕🏻
Impossible, internet told me this was dead
That much money yet nobody can keep their job?
Amazes me that people will call out Activision Blizzards awful practices and treatment of staff but will play the game still, especially after they cancelled the story mission stuff you know tricking us into buying the sequel to justify putting number 2 at the end of it.
