Absolute nonsense! The old rich fucks who probably haven't played a game since the Atari 2600 told me that nonstop MTX and creating value for shareholders is the only way to have fun games!
It's probably not true as making your the most money. To do that you need to be morally bankrupt and engage in predatory practices and exploit mental illness.
But it will make you a lot of money and win you the love of fans through the ages. Which I prefer and will continue to spend money on.
let me just check in with Blizzard and ... oh no
Yeah. They started as Larian but they lived long enough to become...them.
Blizzard ceased being Blizzard roughly in the span of the dev of the 1st and 2nd expansions to Wow. That's when the core of the original Blizzard left.
And then remade Diablo 1 and 2 as Torchlight 1 and 2.
