Exactly. I am so freaking sick and tired of students whinging about the release date as though they are going to be either the only ones affected or the largest long term demographic. Honestly, life gets busy forvthem? Too bad. Life is busy for people with full time jobs all year.
Yeah either you’re a kid or have the mental age of one.
To the point then, the discussion was going about why streamers are bad for the game and we could discuss this as adults, giving our points and counter points to the topic.
Here’s an example. I do not like streamers in wow because once they leave a realm, their fans follow them and that creates dead/imbalanced realms, they also thend to have a toxic community arround them.
The good point about streamers is that they keep players engaged in the game even if they don’t play anymore and bring cheap publicity for Blizzard, keeping the game relevant.
See, it wasn’t that difficult to have a normal discussion. Instead of your patethic and pointless rant. “I wear big boy pants, I don’t emulate children”, only a children, a person with serious mental problems or with a lack of education could follow that way of thinking.
Content “creators” got their information from blizzard via the announcements up until now and then used that as content they “created” for their followers. Why exactly did they need to become the only place to get such information?
Watching videos of other people play video games is for kids. I don’t care how many kids disagree with me. Its as weird and unseemly as watching a video of someone reading a book or watch a movie. Or dress like Peter Pan.
You disagree. Fine. But also clearly watch videos of other people play video games. My thing is playing video games. You think my opinion is immature. Fine. Thats great. You watch videos of other people playing video games. We will never agree. But I will agree to disagree and we can leave it at that.
And just to be clear - I am not talking about the ultra rare video of the best players of x game competing against each other, which could be analogous to watching professional sports.
Classic isn’t going anywhere so people will have plenty of time to play once their busy schedules settle down and by then layering should be gone as well. I agree with Blizzard being the ones who should announce things rather then streamers though.
This part particularly bothered me. It felt unprofessional, as if ATVI isn’t taking this project seriously. I’d expect the debut interviews for a major release from a major corporation to be conducted by forbes or another reputable outlet.
