ITT: The greatest tragedies of gaming

ITT: The greatest tragedies of gaming

I'll start with an obvious one.

It's better than nothing

Spore

fuck those shills

Blizzard in general is a tragedy.

...

...

Spoiled faggots. This is easily the greatest tragedy, bar none.

The whole thing was like a tragic comedy and then nothing.

This.

Big publishers approach successful smaller companies all the time. Usually it ends it a hilarious tale:

EA approaches Valve for a billion dollars, Gaben tells them to go fuck themsleves.


EA approaches CD Projekt Red with an offer, and they break down into CYKA BLYAT GIT OUT OF COUNTRY!

But every now and then, it goes wrong and the publisher succeeds and the result is either the death of the company, (As with so many)... or the zombifiication of the company where they pump out year after year of shitty sequel until no one buys anything from them anymore, at which point everyone is fired and the whole thing is shut down.

ur mom xD

>80+ fantastic games
>more pretty good games
>easiest games of any console to pirate
>basically an arcade in your home
>cheap as fuck to buy nowadays

Nigga the dreamcast was great

>server full of bots, chinks and gold grinders
>tragedy

The day they announced that they were shutting down and they were playing sad music in the /vg/ general as virgins were panicing was comedy gold.

Don't worry. Legacy servers will be announced at the next Blizzcon.

>5 minutes of playtime have been transferred into your account

Anyone who played on the PvP knows that RMT and chinks were running rampant. I knew people in guilds who paid for gold just so they can skip the material grind and skip straight to raiding.

>CYKA BLYAT GIT OUT OF COUNTRY!

They are polish, m8. You need to change the first two words with an essay on Kurwa.

Fuck I miss it. It wasn't perfect but showed up around the time I think a lot of us wanted to enjoy wow again but just couldn't stomach retail. I really wish they would just make a russian server and stop trying to be these "legacy ambassador" faggots. I get that not everyone wants "old" wow but blizzard are dicks for shutting down a server that made 0 profit while the current vanilla server kronos sells all kinda of shit and doesn't even fix their server or regularly update. Seriously fuck this world

the server was generating mass profit from illegal RMT. even if the private servers owners didn't see a penny, there were chinks who were profiting off a pirate server.

This. Nost staff posted statistics themselves showing that the amount of players peaked at China time.
