Mike Morhaime quit Acti-Blizz so he could co-found a new gaming company
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqaMHeyUhl0

A lot of ex-blizzard employees have joined him and so people are naturally getting hyped calling it "Blizzard 2.0".
It's a company called Dreamhaven which is supposed to be the "DNA of old school Blizzard".
Dreamhaven owns two new studios called Moonshot Games and Secret Door.

What do you guys think?
Invest early?

They are going to develop games for twitch obsessed zoomers and nothing else.

Who cares? The entire industry is full of cucks and onions boys. They would rather suck giant black dick instead of making a good video game.

You better believe that this new studio won't be any different. It will be full of diversity hires, BLM advocates, and women who don't know how to use a computer.

What makes you think they are going to make money?

Have you not paid attention to the market the last 5 years? 99% of these games that target the zoomer twitch audiences fail. Extremely few of them get any success. And even fewer have LASTING success.

Even Amazon got BTFO chasing after this audience

Seriouspost how many times has "ex-blizzard vets quit and make their own studio" EVER lead to a successful studio that even puts out even one good game? And those were the true vets that made games like diablo 2.

Amazon hasn't even released New World yet.
It got delayed from August 25th, 2020 to Spring 2021.

They can delay it until 2025 for all I care, as long as the product I get in my hands can compete with the likes of WoW and Runescape 2.

The whole point of them starting a new studio was to ensure private control on development. I highly doubt they will take this public any time soon.
