AAA graphics, smaller game, $30 price point
made tons of money
it didnt cost stupid high amounts of money to make, so making it back with $30 sales was easier
My partner is a games animator and artist. He is not even considering the AAA market right now. He thinks AA is where it's at
i do too. im going through college to furfill my promise to get a degree. then ima ignore that and try to make it into indie or AA market
There's so much more innovation going on in the AA and indie scene
Far more interesting
The whole thing was a really big fuckup by marketing @ blizzard
announcing this @ Blizzcon in front of their core audience shows that marketing does know nothing about their core audience
and they seem to have something in the pipeline for the diablo franchise (if what I heard is correct)
They should have come from the angle of "well we have something in the pipeline for diablo, but you know it's a long way ahead and we can't tell you more, but while you wait, why do you not try out our new diablo mobile as appetizer"
Yeah, the pfone one was really really bad
BUY OUR SHIT PEASANTS
CONSUME !
bae
I just find that amazing.
It's like they had no fucking clue that this was how people were going to react.
no, they shovel chinese shit and you buy it
Yeah, that's the thing isn't it?
Just like C&C mobile this is being marketed to the chinks.
You being Racist Bro?
how did they respond
I'm honestly not.
I find it really strange actually.
Especially since the Chinese have no history with these brands like their existing American customers.
Dude we made alot of phones for you
so fucking play Diablo on your phone
It's not that I even have an issue with the idea of a Diablo mobile game.
I think if anything we have these super powerful smartphones, we might as do something with it.
It's that there hasn't been a new Diablo title in years, and Diablo III had a ginormous shitshow of a launch when it came out.
my NOKIA says I'm not Blizzards target market
it costs Β£10
my $2000 gaming rig
also not Blizzard's target market
I still use a iPhone SE.
I got it for $150 new last year.
