Brand recognition and powerful marketing is far, FAR more important

>>377817780
kinda, but you have to produce some quality content to build up your brand first.
once you have it you can just keep fucking up though, best example is bioware. everyone is making fun of their shit games but people still bought andromeda.

Eh, I'd argue brand recognition is all you need.
No Man's Sky got plenty of marketing and still got backlash.

No you don't, you just need to be the only one doing what you do. That's why Nintendo keeps performing much better in NA than any other region, because other regions didn't play exclusively atari games.

Blizzard isn't the worst abuser of this though

FFXV was a very bad game, but sold 5 million because it had "Final Fantasy" in the title
few other devs could have gotten away with releasing that game in such a state

For making money, not for creating quality products. And shitty products WILL ruin your brand.

This really is the case, Overwatch is successful only through marketing

When it was about making good games, Blizzard made good games (and took their sweet time to make them and balance them). Now it's about something different.

Blizz has great game design though. They've always got extremely smooth / polished gameplay.

Problem is that they've turned their focus to casual retards. And have a bunch slobbering dipshits for writers now.
