This game really has competitive potential/value?
>>338078951
not on console
>>338077768
Can't wait to see more hackers :^)
>>338078951
The only thing a game needs to be potentially competitive is a minimum of support and a big following.

>>338078951
there was a time when something to be competitive nedded first a playerbase that became good enoug to be seriously interested on going to organize tournaments, now you can simply throw money and idiots will start figthing to get the money.
>>338077768
LITERALLY WHO?
>>338077768
>and YouTubers
i'll boycott the game if this happens
Why is Blizzard having to push this game so hard?
why is blizzard forcing this shit? this just makes me not want to play it.

It's called marketing, and it's very important in business for selling a product.
>>338077768
>famous sports persons and YouTubers
Translated : "Shit tier wannabe celebrities nobody cares about"
I wish they would stop forcing this e-sports meme in to every game
>>338080086
So the promise of money and status at the end of the tunnel is now a way for a company to market a game. Nice
>>338080443
But the gooks love it.
>>338080542
Yup, and it actually works
>console
>>338080583
Gooks only play Starcraft

>Marketing

they had the worst marketing I've seen in years
such a good game such shit marketing..
Nice I can watch Goldfraud and washed up former druid shitter Sodapoppin get shit on live infront of thousands of twitch memers.
That never gets old.
Its deulofeu

Why don't people just like the game based on it's general appeal? Like gameplay, writing, etc?
>>338081905
people are stupid. they need to be told what they should and shouldn't enjoy.
>>338081905
How do you expect people to find out about the game in the first place?
>>338081905
Because people need to buy the game first to experience those things, and if the game isn't well marketed with lots of good gameplay videos, streams, trailers, etc. people won't buy it.
>>338082964
By the one thing that initially hyped the game in the first place. It being a new original IP from Blizzard.

Ah yes, the time before Riot Games.
>>338083358
are you aware the average person has no idea what IP and Blizzard are?
i feel the open beta and word of mouth had more to do with the overwatch hype more than the marketing did
>>338081905
>Why do companies market their games for guaranteed results instead of sitting on it and praying? Marketing offends me!
God, just shut up already.
>>338083820
So the game has no lasting power?
>>338077768
>Deulofeu
Wow, didn't expect Blizzard to be this cheap.
>>338083890
Of course it has lasting power, people are ADDICTED to this game. But inital sales so the game can break even on it's budget is important. Quit being a retard.
>>338078951
Blizzard managed to convince people HotS has competitive value so why not.
>>338077768
>YouTubers
TB must become an honorary guest. He's shilling this game on his fucking deathbed.
