Within two days of NetEase announcing a renewal of their partnership to bring Blizzard games back to China, over two million players have pre-registered, 147,000 accounts reactivated, 92,000 accounts recovered, and Blizzard China has received 1,000+ resumes!
While restoring service to other Blizzard games including Hearthstone, Overwatch, Starcraft, Diablo, and Heroes of the Storm, the response for WoW has been overwhelming.
Taking to social media Ybarra, who stepped down from Blizzard earlier this year, explained that he wanted the option to “tip” developers after completing a game.
“When I beat a game, there are some that just leave me in awe of how amazing the experience was. At the end of the game, I’ve often thought ‘I wish I could give these folks another £8 ($10) or £16 ($20) because it was worth more than my initial £56 ($70) and they didn’t try to nickel and dime me every second’,” he explained.
He then went on to praise Horizon Zero Dawn, God Of War, Baldur’s Gate 3 and Elden Ring. “I know $70 is already a lot, but it’s an option at the end of the game I wish I had at times. Some games are that special.”
He went on to admit that “many” will dislike the idea though.
“Or you could share more of the profit with the devs instead of asking more from the consumer,” wrote one fan, with another adding: “I often play a game and am disappointed. Can I get my money back?”
Earlier this year, Ubisoft defended the £50 price tag for live-service title Skull & Bones, calling it a quadruple-A game while Saber Interactive CEO Matthew Karch has told IGN he believes that price-point will go the way of the Dodo. “I just don’t think it’s sustainable”.
Ybarra’s departure from Blizzard came as 1900 members of staff were let go from a number of Activision Blizzard studios. Microsoft also confirmed that the survival game Blizzard announced in 2022 has been cancelled with some members of staff shifting to work on “one of several promising new projects Blizzard has in the early stages of development.”
Hitting out at the number of layoffs across the gaming industry, Larian’s head of production David Walgrave said onstage at the DICE Awards: “There’s an expression in Dutch—’honesty lasts longest. We don’t make decisions where we think ‘this could make us the most money’ [because] in the long run, building a community, building a playerbase, building games that are actually fun is going to make you the most money, that’s it.”
como a Bioware teve múltiplos dlcs de armas e armaduras para o ME2 e nunca me senti chulado quando os comprei todos para o ME2 porque adorei o jogo.
Introduzir a cultura do tipping neste mundo é mais um sonho molhado para esta gente.
Para que pagar salários quando podes argumentar que vao ser pagos em gorjeta lol.
Take-Two Interactive Software (TTWO.O) will lay off about 5% of its workforce, the publisher of the "Grand Theft Auto" franchise said on Tuesday, as the gaming industry extends its job cuts from the past two years into 2024.
The company said it would also scrap several projects that are in development as part of a cost-reduction plan, which is expected to lead to total charges of $160 million to $200 million.
The plan is expected to be largely complete by Dec. 31, 2024, it added.

Que canal de absoluto lixo. Mais uma polémica ridicula da internet escalada a uma proporção absurda por uma echo chamber gamer™.

Podes não gostar do formato, mas o conteúdo é 1000x mais genuíno do que um "kinda funny games" da vida, por exemplo.
E mesmo com esse clickbait, é 1000x mais genuíno que os canais/media tradicionais, que ou têm uma certa agenda por trás, ou ligações a determinado estúdio que não querem perturbar, com (por exemplo) leaks, etc.Genuino? Engagement Baiting a gamers™ com polémicas da treta das redes sociais é genuinidade? Só cai quem quer. Basta dar uma vista de olhos nos últimos 10/20 videos e percebe-se logo...
Quanto ao kinda funny, nem sequer vejo ou sigo por isso... Mas certamente haverão muito melhores canais do que esse que postaram aí, sem entrarem em assuntos que só servem o propósito de polarizar ainda mais.
Eu sigo zero youtubers a falar de "notícias" por essa mesma razão. Desenquadram-te completamente, puxam para o lado que quiserem com uma facilidade tremenda.
Swedish gaming conglomerate Embracer Group announced plans on Monday to split itself into three distinct games and entertainment companies: Asmodee Group, Coffee Stain & Friends, and Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends. These will be separate, publicly listed companies, according to Embracer, which says the move will allow “each entity to better focus on their respective core strategies and offer more differentiated and distinct equity stories for existing and new shareholders.”

- Middle-earth Enterprises & Friends: This company, which will be renamed from Embracer Group, is described as a “creative powerhouse in AAA game development and publishing” that will retain ownership of the Dead Island, Killing Floor, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Tomb Raider, and The Lord of the Rings IPs.
- Asmodee Group: a new arm dedicated to publishing and distributing tabletop games. The existing catalog includes established titles like Ticket to Ride, 7 Wonders, Azul, CATAN, Dobble, and Exploding Kittens. Asmodee is also developing licensed tabletop games based on The Lord of the Rings, Marvel, Game of Thrones, and Star Wars franchises. Embracer anticipates the spinoff and share listings will take place “within 12 months.”
