29 million MAUs for Blizzard in Q4 (corrected)

World of Warcraft MAUs grew year-over-year for the sixth consecutive quarter, contributing to overall Blizzard MAUs of 29 million in the fourth quarter.

29 million includes Overwatch which is usually 10 million. It’s misleading though because we don’t know if Overwatch dropped to 7-8 million and WoW took up the slack.

No mas. You are correct. Deleted the mistakes.

Seems legit. My wife who risks her life being an ER doctor and saving people’s life makes less than a guy who sits in a chair all day.

Except those with jobs…and restaurants being open… and many other things…

Th other colimn is the active number. You are looking at total accounts ever created including trial accounts.

Financial leverage. At the apex. Capitalism.

Almost guaranteed the CEO or president of the hospital where your wife works makes more than she does.

If you’re talking about the Weakaura’s leak, I would take that with a grain of salt.

It’s dropped to that with the majority of people being at home with little to do. Imagine what will happen once things open back up. Not a good sign for the future of Blizzard games.

First of all, that is an american perspective, other countries actually care whether their citizens live or die.

Secondly, wow is a recreational activity, and a lot of them are closed or greatly reduced capacity. Bars and clubs, sports stadiums, movie and play theatres, etc. Even if they do have to work, people can choose to stay home in their spare time.

Blizzard has to hope Diablo can fill the gap and OW and HS recover or Blizzard will be a one hit conglomerate of studios.

A lot of these numbers are being pumped up because of the expansion release. The next quarterly report will be more interesting as that will give a better idea of what’s actually been happening.

My calls are up $1500 so hoping it stays like that to tomorrow morning. >_>

I can only go by personal experience. At the start of the expansion and during the first couple of weeks, my guild would have around 20 people on. I logged in yesterday in prime time and there were 5. And that’s the sort of number I’ve been seeing all week. And they had planned to have a go at a normal raid on the weekend and nobody turned up. Trade chat on my main servers is full of guild trying to spruke for members for raiding and M+ which is a sign their rosters are bottoming out.

While the reports on its popularity might have been right for the first month, I doubt that’s as true now.

it doesn’t help if there was no Blizzcon last year.

Gnomes are ankle shooters, we have evidence here:

Only if we miss a higher target :bow_and_arrow:

Good luck. ATVI is up $10.89 +11.75% in the after market now.

My realm had a massive drop around a month ago. There used to be tons of people online at all times of the day, now even on maw reset no one is out there. There are no more frog chains in oribos, not many people there either and my guild online has about 30% it once did. The drop off was massive and relatively early on this xpac but the Q4 report wouldn’t include it.

LOL thank you for the laugh. Look at EU vs US. What about china’s “re-education camps” North Korea? Wait india with with a group of people thought of being invisible and gang nonconsensual acts…perhaps Nepal with The prejudices of a caste system still there.

Hahha oh man… dude you’re a riot

Not like there’s a financial incentive to claim covid deaths in a money hungry hospital system… oh wait

Lemme guess aussie? Shouldn’t you be crying that you have to pay as much as Americans now?

I am more interested in the whole “experience WoW in more platforms”.
