FOMO: "Fear Of Missing Out", also commonly known as people with a mental issue of managing time and activities, many expecting others to fit into their schedule so they don't miss out on things to come. If FOMO becomes a problem for you, do seek help, it can be a very unhealthy lifestyle..
Well it's the battle.net launcher, not WoW launcher. It's like being angry that Steam advertises other games than whatever your favorite is.
Uhh, yes? I do, however, wish I could pick which emails I get sent to me. I have no interest in any Overwatch or Hearthstone stuff, but I'm fine with getting emails for the other games.
No surrender! 70 Vanguard - The Star Forge
It's not even a WoW launcher any more, it's a Battle.Net launcher.
Let's be real here, overwatch will have been out for a month and a half before WoW has any news to share. It's not a big deal.
All I see is big blue buttons for Play/Install and Brown/Orange backgrounds for braking news. There's a slider with patch and game releases. I don't really see the problem with that, it doesn't block your game experience in any way
Yeah it's cross promotion of one of their games, also it's not the "WoW launcher" it's the BNet Launcher.
Are you serious?
why wouldn't it? It's Blizzard's launcher... they're Blizzard games. Cmon, geez.
I too would prefer only news/advertisements on the game selected, but of course it's still appropriate to show their other games
Nope. That is not how advertising works. You want to expose your newest and latest products to as many potential customers as possible.
If that is how you feel about Blizzard using their launcher to advertised their own products to their existing customers, how do you feel about other types of advertising?
Personally, I have no problem with them advertising their other games in their own launcher. I would be surprised if they did not.
True that kinneer, I find it more annoying to be browsing the mmo-champion forums and be disturbed by a banner ad with audio... or one of the darn ones that pop up and cover part of your screen. But for blizzard the Overwatch advertisements on the other game "Launchers" is perfectly fine it's a pretty normal advertising practice.
