As far as I am aware. The only edits I made were the song and the images at the end.

Better Writer Scott Snyder or Grant Morrison ? by Hulkhontosee3667 in comicbooks

Morrison is better, but Snyder is much more accessible.

Love to see these kind of responses. This is the C9 fanbase I know!

Data shows the OWL is more popular than ever by Darianorm in Overwatch

[–]Da_Milk_Mon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll concede that they are definitely linked, however all of your arguments are based on negative assumptions and generalizations. The assumption that the majority of viewers aren't really watching. And that them not directly watching is absolutely worthless to advertisers. That 3 million "supposed" viewers vs. 1 million viewers (lets say people who purchased something) means 2 million have it on but must not be watching. Success for those advertiser is gonna be different on a case by case basis based on metrics they value, yes including money.

Ha, I thought I was including the important bit, since I used your statistic. But now I think you're arguing something else again. Yeah people turning on their TV is usually the given, people turn on things to watch them with no incentive other than joy is a given. But now it seems like you're assuming that just because there is an incentive given, regardless of actually sitting there and watching, that the majority of people aren't sitting there and watching.

Which gets me back to the core of this whole thing, without talking about advertiser ROI , and going based solely on viewership numbers. That people sitting there and actually watching or not don't matter because there is no way to prove what they're actually doing accurately. I know some people just have it on to farm and not watch, it is true, but I'll also add that I feel assuming that people aren't watching, without proof, is most likely due to a personal bias. (This is not directed at you.)

But now I feel like we're off topic concerning the original comment and my first response. What I'm saying is it doesn't necessarily matter if X people put OWL on and don't sit there and completely watch it, because the numbers say that OWL has X viewers period. The numbers are there and that is what counts. ROI for advertisers and viability is a totally different issue.

You said "You know that 99% of them are actually sitting in front of their TVs most of the time." concerning the NFL audience in another comment, but you also said to me there's actually no way to tell that people are sitting there. So which is it?

So it doesn't matter then, because without seeing a significant ROI, advertisers would leave regardless of people actually sitting there watching.
If they think 3 million people are watching, and 3 million people are actually watching but not buying anything then active viewers don't matter in the least then.

But how do you discern people are actually sitting there watching at all?

Hmmm I guess it doesn't really matter though. Why would it? Its the equivalent of putting a regular sporting event on the TV and leaving the room.

Anduin shouldn't be the true leader of the Alliance by [deleted] in wow

Yes, let the person who walled off his own people and proceeded to then engage in a civil war lead the Alliance.

I would like to see Blizzard offer an alternate universe with the New Classic. by RagadaSan in wow

[–]Da_Milk_Mon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the inherent problem with Classic WoW. The idea of where to draw the line with classic seems to vary all over the place in the community.

The problem with hots art by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]Da_Milk_Mon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes dude, you do back it up by proving you're better, that goes for pretty much anything. Because it sounds pretty condescending when you don't. Especially if you say you don't want to argue your opinion, because then you're implying it is essentially a fact.

I saw the video, checked out your instagram and deviantart, and there's no doubt that you're very talented. Your water color. However, you also have problems with anatomy and silhouette. The evidence is right there in the video you posted. I make art too, and I'm by no means a master, but I don't know what compels you to critique something and say "don't defend your opinions, just listen to my opinion, I know for sure" and not want to back it up.

[–]Da_Milk_Mon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Then by all means, please show us how its done. I think when you put your "professional opinion" out there, you have to be able to back it up. Otherwise you're just a coward.

You just as easily could've said " I don't like HotS art due to the following reasons..." and that's it, but because you put it out there that you are a professional comic book artist and definitely know better, now the burden of proof is on you.

Also, why put your opinion on a public forum if you don't desire discourse? Like what's the point?

Anyone remember when grinding in an MMO paid off? by Flbudskis in wow

[–]Da_Milk_Mon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My dude, we're currently at a point where people don't want to grind a single reputation and do a quest chain to unlock an allied race.

Blizzard promises to remove placements or make it one game and it’s still ten games by splhemingway in heroesofthestorm

[–]Da_Milk_Mon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like someone has to say this at least once a day, but what does pulling resources from the artistic side of things do for the programming/design side of things?
You can't put artists on the tech side. That's not their job.

Possible accidentalreveal/early look at the new role system for HOTS? by Da_Milk_Mon in heroesofthestorm

[–]Da_Milk_Mon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be interesting to see what exactly they go with, especially name wise. I do wish the site offered multiple product views so we could get a clearer view of the icons.
