> Blizzard’s plans for ANYTHING Hearthstone are fucking flawed. It’s honestly remarkable how much they’re botching up nearly everything.

These kinds of hyperbolic comments are why lots of people don’t read the comments.

That’s a mean-spirited take.

“let” is Ecmascript 6. Three equals signs is best practice in ES6. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, there goes about 98% of my respect for Palmer Luckey.

dipping sauces are less about adding flavor and more about lubing your throat

fallout shelter made more money than fallout 4.

As long as my beloved HappyPuppy is still around...

I worked for Ubisoft (Red Storm) for a few years – it was a great environment, and probably the best job I’ll ever have. Not all AAA game companies are bad.

“If Blizzard had each iteration of the game running (Vanilla, BC, WOTLK, Cata, etc etc) they would probably have another million+ subs that they’d lost come right back. Not having this feature makes no sense from either a financial or consumer satisfaction standpoint.”

That’s not a nice thing to say when you’re talking about the lives of individuals and families.

Dang yo, if you're gonna serve this up as an image, save it as PNG, and don't compress it to hell with Cloudinary.

Your reply is gross.

"Really? Where do so many people get the idea that being a game developer pays as well as like a sports player?"

I had the pleasure of working with concept artists at Ubisoft Red Storm for a few years. They were all incredibly talented, creative people. At least one of them can be found on Wikipedia, albeit for his comic work.

What is wrong with you?

I've been having a lot of fun with it. Then again, as Infamous taught me, I think I kinda just love photo modes. If photo mode were a lady, I would marry it. If photo mode were a pizza topping, I would order it all the time, even when my friends wanted something else. I'm increasingly of the opinion that life should…

I'd argue the opposite, where those middleware tools allow early designers to even make stuff, and when you get an established team can create custom technology...but that requires programming knowledge.

DotA2 will always look better as long as LoL is practically just using modded Warcraft3.

Your buddy at EA has no clue what he's talking about. Ex-Ubisoft employee here – the top producer, one game designer, one UI designer and the kid in charge of all shooting mechanics (I have no clue what he was called) at our studio started out in the QA department.

Go current gen now and pay, what, $50 more, at most? I promise you, $50 in one year is miniscule.
