Anticipation thread for Online Blizzcon 2021 abridged

It’s nice to see the “Live-Service” bs finally get screwed over for once. Square Enix took millions in losses for how much of a mess their Avengers game turned out to be. The game’s only been out for two months, yet it already lost 96% of the peak playerbase. I haven’t seen a player drop-off that quick since Artifact.

Yo, remember when Artifact was supposed to kill Hearthstone. Fun times.

Ubisoft just wants to distract from everything else they have been scrutinized for.

Only thing that can kill a Blizzard game is themselves. And God knows how many bullets they shot at WoW and yet it can still walk.

I know I won’t go back to HearthStone ever again, but what’s up with it lately?

Well, there are now 10 classes, they’ve reimagined what they want class identity to be for each class, and have focused all new expansion cards for almost 2 years now on those goals, along with changing or replacing several classic cards.

Still playing Duel Links. My deck is super not viable but I like it so it’s ok.

They haven’t furthur dilute the pool with even more class, yet?

I have no intention to return to it. MTG-A is the stuff.

I can log back in again as well!

While I don’t know if it’s 96%, but at least on PC, fighting games have a massive player pool drop-off after about a month. It’ll surge every time new characters are added, and then drop off again.

These generic portraits are hell.

They also introduced 2 new game mods in a year. And they’re overhauling the entire ladder/progression system next expansion.

Why the heck did I get to keep my picture? I haven’t even played SC2 since forever. …Unless it’s one of those cases where I can see my own picture, but others cant.

if you have the Narud picture, then i can see it. If you dont, then you have the Narud picture.

Yup. It’s always been Narud since the HotS days.
