Greatest developer ever?

greatest fall from grace

Overwatch is amazing

>>378549385
overwatch is a game designed around a skinners box, the games are about 7 minutes long just so you get to see that shitty exp bar and more lootboxes to get people hooked, blizzard used to be amazing now they are bollocks.

>>378549623
Its fun, and with the right team can be very very intense, its also balanced nicely.

>>378549694
free dlc is jewish now? supporting a game with free content for years after is jewish?

>>378549681
it is not fun, it is repeating the same 7 minutes over and over again and because the games are so short you dont even get to make any meaningful unique decisions. overwatch is the most causal game i've ever played,. mind numbingly boring shit.

every MP game is repetitive

>>378549919
but a game that has hour long games has much more deviation possible than a 7 minute game.

>>378549886
calm down
he's right

>>378549623

I learned my lesson with monster hunter, numbers going up is never worth it. Just enjoy the game for it's gameplay and what it is and the skins just become some stupid negligible bonus.

>>378549770

They are not doing it for free anon, you might be not dumb enough to buy lootboxes but the majority are stupid kids that support this kind of crap.

>>378550202
I dont know how people could become so addicted to cosmetics in games.

they were good, but haven't made a good game since WoW TBC.

>>378548968
No, not even close. Blizzard hasn't been good since Wrath of The Lich King, they've fallen into the jew and SJW hands. There's much better developers out there that deserve the title, Fromsoftware comes to mind.

how can people defend blizzard? their latest games:
sc2 (dead compared to broodwar despite trying their hardest to kill broodwar in 2010)
d3 (a fucking joke of a game compared to d2's legacy, SHIT TIER writing/world/music/game mechanics, real money auction house.. the expansion didn't fix shit)
WoW is a shell compared to its former self
heroes of the storm is LITERALLY a joke
hearthstone is a pay to win card game designed for turbo autists with mommy's credit card
overwatch is just worse than tf2

>>378550298
fuck those inaccessible try hard souls games.

t. I haven't played tf2 in 5 years and/or valvecuck

>>378548968
Yes actually, if you disagree then name 1 (ONE) better developer

>>378549270
It's not Valve

>>378550270
>>378550298
This, they sold out with wotlk.
I remember the intro with Arthas in northrend being one of the hypest moments ever, then the game ruined it all.

>>378550456
i dont play it but it looked shit when i was in korea.

>>378548968
Why does Blizzard hate attractive males? They are constantly designing hyper-sexualized, bombshell babes, but practically every dude is a blocky, over-muscled re-skin of every other dude. Why are they incapable of designing twinks?

they don't want to make their modern fans feel bad. also, none of the females are hyper sexualized

ITT weebs that won't even dare to name their chinese tomboy collecting game devs.

>>378551809
I don't have a favourite developer because i'm not a faggot.

>>378549270
This.

Before 2007 (the merger) I often asked myself, can Blizzard even make bad games?

Now I'm asking the opposite. Remaster might be a step in the right direction.

>>378549957
You mean there's no difference when 1 out of 10 different strategies is used in a 7 minute game and when 10 different strategies are used in a 70 minute match?
If a game has a meta then all deviations disappear the higher the skill level is.
If you want deviations in games then it's time to smurf games, because only noobs and 'low end' players are actually good enough to play a fun match like that.

>>378552057
dont worry they're adding hotkey rebinding to make broodwar easier for casual noobs who think it's too hard to hit o to make overlords

>>378551171
>They are constantly designing hyper-sexualized, bombshell babes, but practically every dude is a blocky, over-muscled re-skin of every other dude
Are you saying blocky over muscled men aren't hyper-sexualized?

Nintendo is the greatest developer ever.

Blizzard isn't what it once was.

The problem isn't that the males aren't hyper-sexualized; they are and that's fine. The problem is that the Blizzard male aesthetic is so fucking narrow: mature, muscled, grizzled.

>>378552320
No i do not mean that, i cant be bothered to type what i think is wrong with the design of the game so we'll just agree to disagree.

>>378549681
its fun maybe if youre used to playing angry birds you casual trash

No, this is.

>>378553129
So basically your problem is that Blizzard's usual depiction of does not suit your tastes.
Shit luck mate, they tickle all of my pickles.

Only played Overwatch and it was a 2/10 game at best but with a great art style and flashy colors, Nintendo tries to do the same with ARMS now. Awful game but flashy colors and waifus which sell a game.

They also propagage Marxism which I don't really like. Online mode is a disaster too, not even able to pick a fucking mode which you could do in Valve games in the 90s.

One of the worst developers in my book.

>>378553257
I get what you're saying, but a 10 minute rush match in battlefield where one team just had shit luck is no different from a 60 minute match where teams are going back and forth with no end in sight because one third is doing fuck knows what, 2nd third is actually trying and final third is nowhere to be seen by first 2 except in killfeed and then timer runs out.
But yeah, lets agree to disagree.

>>378553807
Well, sure, but that's the trivial conclusion. In the same way that no design decision will ever make literally everyone happy, no design decision will ever make literally everyone sad. But certain decisions can make relatively more people happy, and studios ought to pursue those.

In Blizzard's case re: males, it would cost them almost nothing to diversify their roster. They can still have all the burly lumberjacks they want, but they should still toss the rest of us a bone every now and then.

I played the free weekend and felt so slow and boring. I only liked the waifu and husbandoing but that was just my penis talking.

>>378554356
what i am saying is that there is a very limited set of options / choices and playstyles for the player and the short game length makes it feel like you are playing the exact same game over and over and over again

>>378554732
thank god for that free weekend. I've been debating if I should buy it for a while now and being able to play it helped me realize what an overrated shit it is. A shame too, 'cause it's a really pretty game with a great style and characters.

Not in 14 fucking years.

>>378549623
not to mention that each map is skewed to give advantage to one side at the beginning and the other side at the end, so each game is artificially forced to be close without any actual skill on either side and go into their retarded overtime mechanic.

>>378554828
So the problem is the playtime/match division, but that just means that short lasting matches bore you faster than longer lasting matches and in end both will eventually become boring and mundane.
Basically you need to stop playing competitive.

>>378556217
I have 4k hours on dota and it isnt boring
