Well yeah, that’s a mechanic, but it’s not that replayable.
The fact that my queue times for Archives were nearly instant even at the very end of OW1 says otherwise. (And while it is fair to point out Archives only needs 4 players per match, it’s equally fair to point out that at the end it had what, 18-21 separate queues?)
This is why the devs don’t engage with the forums anymore. Someone’s always ready to demand answers to broken “promises” that were never actually made or based on that player’s own wishful thinking or limited understanding of what the game actually is or was intended to be.
We, as a community, are seriously lacking in empathy for how the devs have tried to keep up with the constantly-evolving development process that came with OW2. I also wouldn’t want to have to spend all my time on the defensive for no good reason. It’s only practical for them to answer questions in pre-approved environments now. We did that.
the softball questions are of course what usually happens in the video game industry with triple A companies
the sad part it also happens to more important aspects of life… governments and politicians. thats the one that really bothers me lawl… dont really care about video games
Maybe cause devs have eroded any good will from the community with their tone deaf responses, bad balancing, greedy monetization and of course the broken promises you said they never made (Then whats the point of OW 2?)
It’s totally scripted, even the questions not only has to be approved by blizzard, but they actually send you questions to ask and last min, which is why stylosa stopped interviewing them.
Funnily they could spend some time approving their own execs before they tweet.
Empathy? They’re incompetent and haven’t delivered on so many things and the game still lacks tremendously basic features. They can only blame Mr. Bobby so much for their failures.
