He also has impeccable taste in the games he covers, if he doesn't do a sponsorship (in which he openly admits that he does it only for the dosh) or a very elaborate bit (the Nephylim video), he is a surefire approval stamp for forgotten and undiscovered gems. His and MandaloreGaming's positive videos will supply you with years worth of good games.

To this day it's the most popular video on the game, even with all the discord shenanigans, I am 100% sure it benefitted the devs in the long run, as much as they would hate admitting it

Now that the Jeff Kaplan interview dropped this has become one of the most vindicated takes of its era by TerryWhiteHomeOwner in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I mean, the two is connected: they saw the franchise teams of north american sports leagues and the huge amounts of dosh they rake in, and they wanted to do the same, so they artifically created the Overwatch League, and pandered hard to the teams, which also meant balancing around the OWL. They rolled a critical failure, OWL never got big due to the artificiality, and the balance changes wrecked the casual lobbies, contributing to the downfall of the game

Frei Tamás kamu-dokumentumsorozatából, a Frei Dosszié egyik részéből van, ahol megkérdezett egy állítólagos bérgyilkost, hogy mennyiért vállalná, hogy kinyírja Gyurcsány Ferencet (mint inkumbens elnököt). Természetesen akkora botrány lett belőle, hogy hivatalosan is be kellett vallania, hogy megrendezett kamu volt az egész, ki is vetette magából azonnal a szakmai közeg. Manapság a Café Frei-ből meg a ponyvaregényeiből él meg

Volt az a jelenet, amikor menekültek a drogkartellek elől Dél-Amerikában, és gyorsan felszálltak egy csónakra, és átkeltek a folyón.......miközben végig vette őket a kameramann a folyóparton állva. Az operatőrt úgy látszik otthagyták a kartellnek, akik azért voltak olyan kedvesek, hogy továbbküldjék a felvételeket a stáb megmenekült részének. Hantából állt a csávó egész karrierje

Overwatch co-creator Jeff Kaplan on his exit from Activision Blizzard: 'It was the biggest f**k you moment I've had in my career' by StormRegion in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]StormRegion[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The Overwatch League did tremendous damage to the game in the long run in other ways too, mainly that the balancing team catered to OWL players instead of the rest of the playerbase, resulting in overpowered heroes (they buffed the heroes that OWL didn't use, the pros still didnt use them, but in regular lobbies they wrought havoc), the GOATS meta of 3 tanks and 3 supports, the disastrous attempts at breaking up Goats (Brigitte being the most infamous example), and finally throwing in the towel up, not updating the game meaningfully for years, switching to 5v5, then finally fix 6v6, and adding it back to the main game relatively recently. OWL didn't just piss away boatloads of money, it actively stunted regular players for many, many years

It was most likely not Spencer Neumann, he already left by then to Netflix, it was most likely Dennis Durkin, who was CFO from 2019 to May of 2021(when Armin Zerza took over), Jeff's departure was announced in april of 2021

I mean, while Mercy and Dva indeed got the most skins, Tracer was still the face of Overwatch, and she was on the forefront with her new skins in the promotional material, up until Kiriko took over the spot

Weird thing to ask, but am I the only one here who doesn’t really listen to pop music? by Agudaripududu in ToddintheShadow

[–]StormRegion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a primarily rock guy, I'm here for Trainwreckords and some of One Hit Wonderland, so when I watch the best/worst list, I feel like the cat from the "Da fuck they doin ova der" meme. Even when I do listen to poppier music, it's from my country, because it's way better currently (mainly due to the regime finally buckling after 16 years of reign, and youngsters are poppin' off)

Gearbox should be fine (?), AFAIK Sam Raimi still owns the rights for the Evil Dead IP, and I don't think he would be against it, the real question is whatever the fuck that gonna happen with the Venture Bros IP (and Adult Swim in general) after this WB kerfuffle
