Its called the corporate life cycle. When your project cannot attract new users, you squeeze your existing users while trying to retain them in any way possible. Nostolgia is a common method, while slowly squeezing them more and more (realm, race transfers, frequent expansions, increased playtime due to super RNG loot system, etc..). Then you take all that cash, and invest it into new projects/games.

How /v/ do you have to be to believe this? Blizzard ALWAYS was a company that looked for the most profitable sectors and went after it hard. It started with console targeting the small market for games, then they realized the could make more money off hardcore gamers so moved to the PC, then WoW was unexpectedly popular with normies so they moved to casuals.

>Warcraft 1/2 was a blatant business decision to make a clone of an emerging genre/market based of stolen IP with the PC identified as a large growth area since most developers (including Blizzard) were focusing on consoles
>battle.net service was Blizzard's business attempt to control the online space long-term (i.e. their Gamespy/Steam)
>D2/WC3 expanding their IP and battle.net base while milking their existing customer base for more revenue
>WoW was a business plan to get revenue from a subscription base that they expected to be hardcores but to their great fortune was popular with casuals too (they planned WoW to last 10 years)
>SC2 literally a cash grab to solidify their esport penetration
>D3 an actually good game that was designed for constant revenue via in game real money auction house (later abandoned because of gamer autism)
>HS is another obvious business decision by finding a niche ripe for exploitation (selling virtual assets) and copying an existing game to get that market
>HotS is another esports grab
>Overwatch is another virtual goods strategy this time via lotteries for goods

Stop romanticising Blizzard as a company that put games and gamers first before it was taken over by corporate interests. Gamers like their old games because their *market* at the time was gamers. And now it isn't. But they never had any real loyalty or care for gamers beyond them being a source of revenue. Blizzard has ALWAYS been 100% about making assloads of money. They're a great *company*.

The big suits are almost all taking companies the way of EA.

The only thing that can save this is proper crowdfunding that is well regulated where crowdfunders are given tokenized royalty shares that gives them a right to the profits.

Studios relying on rich publishers (the fucking suits) that give exploitative contracts, or just outright own the studios, is why we're seeing the homogenization of games.

If video games were funded like venture capitalism funds technology startups (high risk high reward), innovation and game diversity can prosper again.

No lol. There were non themepark pvp centric player economy centric MMORPGs that were so wildly different that WOW might as well be a different genre.
What WOW did was build a great themepark (for its time) with hardcore pve raiding and a casual leaning balance of pvp permissibleness and importance vs no-pvp considering the audience of the time.

The problem is that game industry has truly become an industry and the approach when making games has changed.

Old teams that made all those great games consisted of better then average devs who willingly worked for less money then they could in other industries because they actually wanted to make games. They were real gamers and were driven by the childlike desire to create games they actually would really love to play. The money was never a main goal. Desire to prove the idea and create something cool overshadowed fear of risk.

Today, the huge companies have modern and nice working conditions. A lot of devs that work there now are mostly non gamers or just casuals who never really invest themselves in the games they play. Instead of creating something aimed at satisfying their fantasy, design principles and market analysis are the main director. Talented people who have innovative ideas and passion are constrained by the process and their passion slowly culled. Mitigating risk is the main underlying design goal.

Hopefully, the indie industry will continue to grow and not turn into the same thing as the main industry just in different form.

As a pretty hardcore gamer, i played pretty much everything decent, i totally agree blizzard went to shit, but so did valve and many others. Everything is just catering to casuals, it's the nickleback and justin bieber of games.

>buy the game
>now buy skins, we have new skins all the time
>now buy the expansion
>now we will give you "loot" chests and you buy the keys
>more skins
>now we have emojis which you can buy
>pls buy

it's fucking retarded, someone needs to come up with a way to short this bullshit

right now only bethesda is somewhat decent even tho its already dumbed down and repetative
also a shoutout to divinity: original sin 2, very good considering how retarded the industry is atm

tl;dr still waiting for half life 3

>bethesda is decent
>still using 15yo engine in their games where your running speed is tied to fps
>if you have 100+ fps you run at a speed of light in multiplayer game, basically legal speedhack

There’s some women’s right shit mission you have to do, but new fags don’t realize that rockstar has always made fun of both sides of the political spectrum for a long time. First mission of the game there’s a racial slur used against a couple niggers in the game

If you think that Diablo Immortal won't make more money than all their other games combined, you're deluded

>best example is Diablo III

This.

How the fuck could they hire such absolute shit voice actors and story writers. It was pure cringe from start to end with nigger Tyrael becoming "le ebin nigger mortal" and butterfly magic killing the best character in the IP.

Like holy shit, did they even have any auditions for the female voice actors or did they just pick the most annoying out of the bunch?

diablo 1 and hellfire were the beast of games. Diablo 1 is stil the best hack n slash. After that it's been a downhill.

WoW has also cost Blizzard hundreds of millions if not billions, while an outsourced mobile game will cost a fraction of that.
King, part of the activision blizzard, makes about as much money as blizzard itself.

>In 2017, 50% of ActiBlizz's $7.16 billion revenue came from microtransactions.
>The company’s mobile division, King – best known as the Candy Crush people – accounted for $2 billion of that total

I love Bethesda’s games but their tech is shit. The entire physics engine is tied to FPS. If you disable vsync without using something like rivatuner to cap frame rate at 60 then mouse sensitivity goes crazy and your bow becomes a rail gun.

Kek, that's a lot of bullshit.

Blizzard basically invented HnS and modern RTS with Wc1 et Wc2 (just like Half Life did it with modern solo FPS) then they brought the MMORPG in the mainstream with Wow.
Every single sector they attacked was a niche before they released their title (which meant highly risky development) and ONLY AFTER it expanded (see the number of RTS, HnS and so-called "Wow killers" we got in the 00s.

They used to be TRENDMAKERS, now they merely follow them, the only exception being probably Hearthstone (ironically that's the game where 90% of the sound effects and art are coming from WoW and Wc3) but it's a skinner box P2W trash that barely passes as a game.

RDR2 is sjw bullshit. If you bump into a person, you're immediately wanted and cannot complete missions til the bounty is cleared. The game punishes you at every turn if you don't do the "right" thing. It's a fucking western made by rockstar. If I tell a random fuckin dog to piss off, or kill a chicken, the whole damn town chases me off. As far as being SJW look no further than the guilt laden main character.
