Well that just happened

For a second, I thought that this was for Starcraft Remastered and not Starcraft 2.
Still terrible either way.
>>384115039
It's okay when Blizzard does microtransactions
>we need more money
>LETS ADD RNG LOOT CHESTS LIKE EVERY ONE ELSE
>brilliant
>>384115253
I'd rather have this crate bullshit than go back to $10 horse armor and $25 map packs
Well I thought nothing could top the stupidity of Mankind Divided's "Augment your preorder" but I got proven wrong
>and emoticons
CONFIRMED
>>384115039
lol dead game
>>384115269
Watch the video before posting, you embarrassment.
>They're capping the amount of money that goes into the prizepool
Fucking idiots.
>>384115868
They don't want to risk the next time they make a war chest that it makes less money than this time, because they know how bad it looks to see a prize pool go down. So they control it.
>>384115039
The fall of Blizzard.
>>384115648
>carbot
well at least they're good
>pay us for the privilege to unlock loot boxes and we'll send the money to fund esports
>>384115292
We live in a world with both. Starcraft 2 already had godawful pricing for each of its expansions, which were really just the full game cut into chunks.
Overwatch chest was ok
HotS chest is good some how because of the constant epics and legendary you get from chest also reroll with gold is nice.
SC2 seems like shit in the video and I thought the game was dead but I guess not?
What's next? WoW and Diablo chest?
>paying more money for a game that was initially $60 plus the expacs
Look, you don't get to do the dota 2 bullshit when there was a couple of paywalls to begin with.
>>384116389
wow already has rng loot chests.
StarCraft 2 was barely alive during WoL and has steadily sunk so...
Worst thing about this is that I wanted some cosmetics for units on release.
It would have been a nice feature if they units appearances changed based on armor and weapon upgrades, instead of having to click on the unit to see what level they were at.
>>384115039
>Dota does it and people love it
>Starcraft 2 does it and people sperg about it
That's sad, it's not even forced microtransactions, it's totally cosmetic.
>>384116961
Free to play vs $40 game
Plus, you can resell Dota shit.
>>384116961
>$60 for inital game
>$40 each for two expacs
How much did the base dota 2 game cost?
>>384115039
>All those faggots in the comments defending it
>>384116501
it was very much alive during WoL, you could find a game in less than 30 seconds, it started to die in HoS and it's a corpse in the last one
>>384117129
What did you expect?
Blizzdrones will gobble up anything Blizzard does.
Blizzard could sell shit in a box, and they'd still have drones defending it.
>>384115648
Isn't is illegal to say EZ in Blizzard games now?
How about an expansion pack or something with actual content to make SC2 relevant again instead?
>>384117237
no, just in Overwatch if you write ggez or something like that it changes to a phrase that's trying to mock you
in reality, it's just makes ppl rage more
>I feel so small, hold me
>I feel so small, hold me
>>384116961
>>Dota does it and people love it
ASSFAGGOTS has always been cancer. Starcraft is different because people remember a time when it was better than this.
>>384117559
I thought it would be consistent across all their games.
>>384115039
>people wanted skins & a progression/unlockable system since 2009 with the beta
>you think you do, but you don't
>now 7 years later when the game is dead finally add them
Kek
>>384115039
>skinner box progression
>that will be three easy payments of 9.99
>>384117496
They pretty much killed SC2 on purpose to get people to play HOTS
They did a patch in the LOTV beta that pretty much saved the game, but they reverted it
Starcraft 2 has had cosmetics and unlockables for years so this is really a pretty logical step. I'll get mad when you can buy gear crates in wow.
>players no pay for tournaments
>even more money for blizzard
> 9.99 per chest
> then have to grind it to unlock the features
> "oh yeah we'll contribute 25% of the profits to the tournament we are making"
I'm done with this company; this shit is bad enough let alone the SC/OW jewness
>>384117642
Only the Overwatch team is filled with utter social rejects trying to impress non-existent women
>>384115039
This is exactly the same as the Dota 2 compendiums
Hey
Retard
Yes you, you fat faggot
Before you throw a temper tantrum, ask yourself, "Am I forced to buy this?"
>>384115039
Those comments are amazing.
People really have been turned into walking wallets.
>They copied battle passes
>After half a decade
Blizzard is ALWAYS behind the curve.
Blizzard went full JEW & full retard
>>384119628
I dislike Activision as much as the next guy but let's not pretend that Blizz didn't start walking towards this on their own even before.
If you ignore the paid shit, the biggest disappointment is that the old design was EASY to find what you wanted.
Now you have to open menu after menu to hopefully find what you are looking for.
Especially patch notes, server status, etc.
>two worlds adds microtransactions after a long hiatus of nothing
they get burned at the stake
>starcraft 2 adds microtransactions after a long hiatus of nothing
WELL YOU DONT NEED TO BUY IT, BLIZZARD IS BASED!
christ i thought the blizzdrone thing was a meme
