Forums - Sales - Blizzard charges people 88000$ to host a StarCraft Remastered tournament, game sold below 200k units

Chazore on 17 September 2017

I knew the whole agenda of this ongoing tirade against Blizzard was because they "left out other platforms". It was only a matter of time to get the actual reasoning behind this thread's existence.



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

I see no one interested at this game.

I agree, the main reason is because they left out other platforms. Everyone allready played it on PC, there is no reason to repurchase it again espacially since the original is for free now and plays eactley the same. 

All what you get is the new graphics and Ranked match ups, everything else you can access for free. At least on consoles you would have something different because it doesnt exist on the platform.

By that logic, there is no need to release older games from previous console gens onto the current gen, and instead release all the older games onto PC as all those that played the originals on console "had already purchased them".

On consoles you wouldn't get anything different. You already have a few RTS games in general and SC is meant to be played with K+M in general.

pretty sure it isnt. I have almost definitive proof of their sales numbers which are 200k> and they charge 88k for tournmanet host fees because the game bombed.

And?
It's a PC game. Revisit the sales in 20 years time when the game is still selling.
The original StarCraft didn't hit 10 million sales over night you know.

In-case you aren't aware... PC game sales suffer from a phenomena known as "legs". They just keep on selling, just keep on selling, just keep on selling.

According to his "flop" logic, PC sales are basically dead for nearly any game.

You have a weird vendetta against a 20 year old game. Easy target perhaps?

OT: blizzard is one of the worst companys , they release great fucking games but they cant help themselfs to exploit the shit out of his fans with them. From hearthstone to overwatch, so it does not surprise me these prices for tournments.

Typical that you would .

 

Except it isn't, because others here have already pointed differently, but I bet you'll coin them under the same side.

 

I like how you circle jerk with OP though.

Do you even know what circle jerk is ?

What is the typical of me ?

Speak your mind dude, say what you think without BS.

Show proof of what you say too. 

Yes, yes I do, and you're feeding into it.

 

It's typical of you to "fix" what I wrote in fasvor of what you'll always see it as. You and I never get along and it seems we never will, so it plays into that part of you.

No need to speak my mind, my mind when I already speak it.
