Blizzard is deleting dislikes on th Diablo immortal game

Was over 300k and is now at 140k

kek

How to not do PR 101

err don't make a Mobile game for PC gamers that have travel 1000s of miles?

Then say

"Don't you guys have phones?"

YES I also have a $2000 Gaming rig you fucking twat

ive never played diablo, but ive seen how blizzard is treating their fans with overwatch

with that in mind, it was only a matter of time before they did something else amazingly stupid

from their faces, they seemed genuinely confused at people's reactions

are they even aware of what gamers want?

no

They aren't gamers

why even be a developer if you're not a gamer?

thats one of the few professions where being a fan of the games makes you better at making them

There's a lot of money to be made in the gaming market. Its attracting the vultures

there CAN be a lot of money to be made, assuming you dont get woke. if you do, as we're seeing, you go broke

Of course. Standard rules still apply. But gaming is the new big market right now seeing as Hollywood is slowly dying

gaming has indie stuff though, so they cant corner the market completely

and the more they fuck up, the more indie devs will be considered as options

hell, AA games could replace AAA games in the future, if hellblade is any indication

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"
