EA's BioWare will lay off 50 and cut ties with unionized Keywords playtesting group (venturebeat.com) angielski

Neither the layoffs nor breaking ties with a playtesting company that knows their worth in the market sound like they're going to help BioWare make RPGs that can compete with Baldur's Gate 3, formerly a BioWare series.

AccmRazr,

Look at this clown! First, they came out saying they weren’t even fans of the material. You have Henry Cavil in the lead role who is a super fan of the source materials arguing with you and the writers about the show. And then you finish it off by blaming the audience for your decisions. Mind you, the audience you have ultimately attracted is largely influenced by the decisions you have made throughout the production of YOUR show. The audience didn’t make this show, YOU did

Yeah, right.

I don’t think any American was like “wow I want a shittier version of the Witcher to watch, that’d be sooo great!”

“NO HAVING FUN! ONLY SPEND MONEY!”

Clone_IX,

Make an offline version where I can mod.

Or - even better - make a good game that does not rely on microtransaction bullshit.

To give more context, last week, the team behind TurboHUD released a version of this overlay tool/mod for Diablo 4. TurboHUD helps keeping track of your progression, your performance, and allows you to add quality-of-life improvements to the user interface. This mod was also available for Diablo 3, and a lot of gamers were using it.

A UX and progress tracker is getting people banned. How fragile is Blizzard? They're probably afraid this will somehow give people an unfair advantage for those leaderboards that won't exist for at least 6 more months.

TwilightVulpine,

They are probably afraid of players having any control over the game that they can't monetize.

fartsinger,

It took some level of self control for me to skip this game but seriously, fuck modern Blizzard. Seeing news like this makes me feel less like I'm missing out.

It already doesn't rely on microtransactions. They sold over 10 million copies. It just has microtransactions anyway.
