Make a good game
>dominates card game genre
HA
Is right.
I wouldnt say diablo is a hack and slash, not anymore at least. I think It got overtaken by more action focused games, ranging from gow to more curazy like DMC.
Diablo is more of a action rpg dungon crawler. It did start its own "item progression" which is used is several.other games, though
I wouldn't say dominate, except maybe for MMORPG's. But they are big names in every genre they enter.
>dominates the entire card game genre
Online card games yes.
But all card games, lol no.
They'll never see another cent of my money
same with activision, not that it matters at this point cause they're already rich as fuck
>>makes card game
>>dominates the entire card game genre
no
>neo-blizz succeeding at anything
>HA
What are you laughing at faggot? They objectively do
They succeeded with HS, failed with HotS, succeeded with Overwatch
because their games are for filthy casuals you faget
>RTS is dead
>Hackenslash is dead
>MMOs are dead
>Card games zombified
>Class based FPS never existed as a genre
this desu senpai
also if what hack n slash game did they make that dominated the hack n slash genre you dumbfuck op?
>dominates the entire card game genre
No
>dominates the entire MMORPG genre
a memegame perpetrated by normies isnt dominating , WoW is easily surpassed by many other games
>dominates the entire RTS genre
subjective, i still think age of empires is the pinnacle of RTS
Is there even a metric on whether HotS is a failure or not? I'd consider SMITE to be a failure right now, but it's still popular.
That's what I said after Diablo 3's initial release.
But after playing Overwatch's beta I might buy it, gave me old TF2 nostalgia.
Just some casual shooting fun.

Are you a time traveler?

>not even Sup Forums remembers it
>dominates the entire RTS genre
They didnt. AoE and C&C were the other big guys at the time. Only SC2 is special because its the last big budget RTS.
>Conveniently leave out MOBAs
Also they're not dominating shit nowadays. RTS/ARPG/MMO/Card games are all stagnant as fuck with only 2 or 3 competitor games or just straight up dead genres. It's not hard to "dominate" electronic card games when the only legit competition you have is WotC who are fucking idiots.

Give it two months.

Nope. Square Enix does, on account of having the entire Asian population playing pic.
I don't know but I would definitely say so
>biggest beta ever
>almost only positive feedback
Yep success
Blizzard is a meme company.
People buy their shit because they are popular and not because they make quality products.
>makes an rts game
that they decided to be anti-consumer with and come out with the last one in 3 parts costing you over $200
>makes a hack'nslash game
with p2w crap
>makes mmorpg
that they ruined over the years and now its a huge pile of crap when other games like bdo and ffxiv are better
>makes a card game
p2w
>makes a class based fps
that gave into sjws the only good thing from it is the faps i've gotten
do...do girls play it too?
not even the same guy but HA
How come they are popular?
>>biggest beta ever
>>almost only positive feedback
Yeah, Diablo 3 had a huge beta that held nothing but positive feedback.
How did that turn out? Oh yeah, even with ROS ripping out the core systems that screwed the game over, it can now barely get 2 thousand players online at the same time.
Fuck that noise.
what about MOBA?
EVERYONE does. Even the kids playing the 3DS.
I have no idea. It's all F2P crap anyways.
>Yeah, Diablo 3 had a huge beta that held nothing but positive feedback.
Didn't the beta only cover the first half of Act 1? Bit hard to formulate an opinion on the game when you're not allowed to play it.
ok user i agree with eveything but the last one what about hat fortress?
this guy gets it
They made quality products at some point in the past.
They don't anymore.
People keep buying their shit anyway. It's a meme.
>Bit hard to formulate an opinion on the game when you're not allowed to play it.
The problems of Diablo 3 were noticeable even in the first act. The problems didn't just magically appear after it. They were part of the game when it shipped.
Literally the only one of its kind.
First post literally best post. Blizzard hasn't made a game worth a fuck since after WotLK
holy shit.
So they're American Nintendo.
Nicely avoiding HotS
Hat Fortress is dead.
They are still people playing it, but it's dead.
Can't wake up.
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do?
Not be fucking jews since they joined Activision.
Who the fuck would honestly say that Blizzard does not release quality, polished products? They aren't perfect but this whole "meme company, meme games" thing is ridiculous and does not exist in real world conversation.
Just internet shit-spewing.
It's the most played card game in the world by far.
>quality, polished products
Which have all been sterile as fuck since 2008.
Not that guy, but yeah pretty much.
First day here?
The ending of that "you can do anything" skit Key and Peele did was aimed directly at people like you.
People like Nintendo though. Especially here. Nobody likes Blizzard besides normies because they want to be "nerds."
Shit opinions: post discarded.
>Who the fuck would honestly say that Blizzard does not release quality, polished products?
Nobody who isn't being disingenuous.
Releasing a "quality, polished product" is a far cry from releasing something with any kind of substance though. Blizzard have become nothing more than expert turd polishers over the years.
WotLK was trash you fucking cuck.
>takes someone else's idea
>copies it
>throws money at it
Guys I think I've cracked their business strategy!!!!
>>dominates the entire RTS genre
Xcom, c&c, aoe are better
>>dominates the entire hack'n'slash genre
Casualized d3 and Grim dawn is infinitely better
>>dominates the entire MMORPG genre
WOW is losing subs and hasn't release a good expansion since TBC
>>dominates the entire card game genre
Magic is and always will be the better card game
>>makes class based FPS
Riding on good marketing and hype, tf2 won't die and there's a good reason why
Did I miss anything blizzcuck?
>7
I want to fuck that card.
>Conveniently forgetting heroes of the deadgame
>Diablo is more of a action rpg dungon crawler
isn't it an isometric rpg.
I know for sure it is not a hack and slash
I wanted to post this. Good user
>basing success on how much you liked it.
Sales are the only thing that matters
>Seriously, is there anything Blizzard can't do?
Dominate anything after they killed their franchises.

I guess we know who is winning the special olympics this year.
is the still the general consensus?
hots is actually very fun
not that Sup Forums actually cares about that
This is kind of sick, Jesus.
It can't make a competent sequel to D2.
Blizzard has always done the exact same fucking thing since warcraft 1
Take game they like.
Casualize it.
Get massive sales.
The only thing that has changed is their older fanbase growing up.
>Wrathbabby
WotLK was fucking garbage after the high that was TBC
>>makes MMORPG
>>ruins the entire MMORPG genre
FTFY
this 2bh
Pandering to normies.
TF2 is dead.
Blizzard didn't kill it.
Valve killed it.
It was amazing until the ICC drought and you know it you salty bastard.
I hears zero complaints from fellow vanilla/BC players until that fucking drought. It was the beginning of the end man. After that, they realized they could get away with that shit all the damn time. They STILL do it. Each xpac since WotLK has had massive content droughts and half-assed content whether it be lore-wise or otherwise.
>TBCucks at it again
You beloved expansion introduced flight mounts, esports arena bullshit, welfare epics and general casualisation through removal of attunements and decreasing xp requirements to level. Everything wrong with WoW started in tbc.
Doesn't make it good.
Is hearthstone good?
Depends, how much money do you feel like spending?
So there wasn't any good gear / raid progression and varied content in tbc, just flying mounts and stuff that slowly got patched in afterwards towards the end of the expansion. Gotcha senpai
$50
not good enough, user
Then no.
Blizzard power creeped teh fuck out of that game starting with the first set of new card packs. Expect to burn $300, at least, to even get on par with other players' decks.
So there wasn't any good gear / raid progression and varied content in wotlk, just ret paladins and stuff that slowly got patched in afterwards towards the end of the expansion. Gotcha senpai.
>I hears zero complaints from fellow vanilla/BC players until that fucking drought
You must have been fucking deaf. People were complaining the moment they said Naxx would be the first tier, and the complaints only got worse when the dungeon finder was added.
If you say so. By the time I was clearing Heroic Ulduar with my buds that shit must have settled down.
Yo forgot they failed to dominate MOBA (but they are doing decent though).
I'm in a weird spot: I'm a console player at heart but consoles being shit has moved me to PC. I have tried but I just don't enjoy the typical FPS/WRPG/RTS/MOBA genres.Since they seem to excel at competitive genres and are trying to expand their domination to the console market I would be very interested to see them make a fighting game or a brawler.
>dominate
what a weird way to say "obliterate the genre to the point nobody plays it anymore"
>Makes MOBA
>it's super successful
Blizzard just can't fail!
"We have millions of players. We have a team of 150+ developers making stuff. We patch every 3-4 weeks. Is good.=)"

I agree with all but the card game one. Hearthstone blows ass and Magic with always be the king.
>good gear / raid progression
That also was present in vanilla.
Hearthstone is currently the most profitable blizzard game right now, they release more and more cards and you must pay at some point to keep up the pace with the meta...
And other as popular as Hearthstone in Asia and made by Square Enix.
And people don't think this is creepy at all? Not even a normie and I don't like this.
Why? It's not a real person so I don't see why it would be creepy.

Every genre Blizzard have invested into heavily has suffered for it in the long run, to the extreme that most of these genres are dead or just full of total shit now.
Square Enix doesn't care. It makes mad fuck ass money and Japan adults and kids LOVE it.
>that pic
I legit lol'd.
probably digital card game genre
