- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

You know what, I could agree with that opinion if the irony wasn't lost to folks
No. One. Would tip for a blizzard game.
Blizzard DOES nickel and dime you at every second. Literally.
Blizzard has not produced a good game since Overwatch 2.
Blizzard made 8.71 Billion in 2023. They can afford to pay their developers without relying on public donations.
Blizzard stopped making good games way before that.
Pong was the last good game, everything since then is garbage /s
Pong was trash. Nothing has ever topped Tennis for Two.
They haven't made a good game since wrath of the litch king.
People only play Overwatch 2 because they deleted the vastly superior original so they could squeeze out more money.
Christ I'd rather play Paladins than OW2 and Paladins is literally TEMU Fantasy Overwatch
Pretty sure they meant to say Warcraft 3 was the last good blizz game.
That game was good mostly because of the modders who made Wintermaul, DOTA, Sheep Tag, etc... The base game had dated graphics even on release.
Very true, but only the fact that the game had such an incredible and easy to use map editor was the reason this was possible.
Overwatch wasn't good either.
If overwatch was so good why didn't they make overwatch 2 good
good games make more money than bad games so clearly you're wrong
wrong
another win for me :)
Because it was made as an excuse to fully transition to a f2p business model. It wasn't a game anyone was asking for and the only way they could get people to use it over the first one was by shutting the first one down. It was their way of pushing enshitification.
I don't think he's saying to tip for a Blizzard game. He's not at Blizzard anymore (probably still has stock though).
I basically agree, I mean, I'd tip for a game I really like. Actually I do, indirectly. I buy other things from companies like FromSoft. I would go further than you and admit I agree with him despite the irony.
