    We chose to remove a lot of content people paid for in our live service game, by releasing a new game:2 which will be a new engine with no content for a new fee!

    Yeah, sure thing Blizzar… really? Huh. Sounds a lot like ActiKiBlizz.

      HOLY SHIT you have no idea how long I have been trying to remember this game. A cousin showed it to me when I was young and I loved it. Next time I saw him he’d forgotten, and I never could find it when I finally got a PC!

      I can’t believe it’s been under my nose this whole time (Paladins fan) and it makes complete sense. Thank you for unlocking a core memory 🙏

      They had a hit with Paladins only to ruin it because they couldn’t create a game of that quality while meeting management deadlines

      i dunno, i usually don’t mesh with mobas at all but i played the shit out of smite. that was years ago so egg on my face if they’ve made it terrible since, but i remember it being real fun.
