Do we really want old Blizzard back?
Personally, with all that we learned about the frat-bro culture there, I don’t want it back. Hell, if it meant people didn’t get abused, I’d erase it.

Dooku also was a Jedi Master, so he already had a mastery of the Force beforehand.
Good idea, I’ll put it right by “Time Person of the Year 2006”!
It’s in the article. Web based stuff with REACT.
Edit: It’s REACT Native. Just read the fucking article, people.
I’ve also been sick for nearly a year following a viral infection, though nothing wrong was found with my heart, so far. I’ll buy the game in solidarity, it was already on my wishlist anyway.
It’s unsurprising, particularly the lateral move to DECA Games. It was an easy target for Embraced to cut costs, plus their last game was cancelled before release (Magic: Legends). It seems like the Cryptic engine would require a large investment to be used for new games, but I might be wrong.
Still frustrating, I’m certain those devs didn’t deserve to be laid off. Seems they cut senior devs too.
There were just so, so many mistakes. Avoidable ones too. The pandemic was unavoidable, but the structure of the League made it more difficult to get through.
The thing is, it’s pretty much Activision Blizzard’s fault here. They destroyed the grassroots competitive scene to make way for the Overwatch League, but that took a bit more than a year. They could’ve found a way to integrate the existing scene instead. And that was just the start of the League. The game itself was mismanaged with the sequel taking way too long and being misunderstood (with good reason).
There were some many mistakes with the Overwatch League, that I don’t think we can use it to generalize that much. ESports was a bubble though, no doubt.
Eh, pas les petites tortillas “traditionnelles” au maïs.
Destiny 1 was planned to be live service, “updated until the end of time”. Seems like the design and technology did not work for that, hence Destiny 2
They get those people to help boost the credibility of the IPO and their experience in managing acquisitions and such.
QA people being mistreated is very, very common. They’d likely rehire some when required or use contractors.
Mismanagement and lack of direction sets a live-service game wayward. How surprising. /s
So many studios sold to massive companies to “ensure their future” in the last few years, but now that the zero interest era* is over, they’re being cut.
I was extremely worried about downgrading to a phone from four years ago, but it turns out I’m totally fine using it as my main phone.
Man, I don’t feel like I’m living in the same world as the author of the article. All my smartphones have lasted me years and years, but they were flagships like the 11 Max. If they had been iOS, they’d surely have lasted longer too.
Went on this website for the first time today. The giant newsletter subscribe pop-up with 404 written in big letters made me think the link I used was dead. Went back to check again and finally understood that it was an annoying pop-up.
Let’s take back the means of waifus!
Don’t expect the Académie to act fast, act properly, or even act. Anyway, it’s already here, réduflation, from Québec. https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Réduflation
Blizzard North was separate from the Irvine studio, I believe. Their Diablo 3 was in development for a while too.
But yeah, I guess that’s what people mean, the old design philosophy. But I can’t help it now. Old Blizzard seems tainted to me. At least starting from the WC3+WoW era.
