Endwalker is coming out what do we do?

QUICK TAKE THE LEGAL FILING DOCUMENTS AGAINST US, ENCRYPT THEM, CALL IT 9.2 AND UPLOAD THEM WE WILL FIX IT LATER

Good thinking, I bet we're going to get a raise!

Crybabies, prepare to unite.

What? It's a good thing. we'll get a PTR sooner rather than later, but I'm not naïve as to how convenient the timing is.

9.2 …. its really time.

if i were blizz, to save the last remaining retail players (and these are really not many now, you can clearly see this by using wow rest api and specific analytics and sites), i would bring 9.2 on stage as soon as possible.

ofc they need quality this time, another 9.1 would be a fiasko. but if i were blizz, i would somewhat „split“ 9.2 and bring something before xmas. just imagine the player numbers after 2-3 xmas holiday weeks with 9.1.5 content. especially under the context of bored xmas holiday players and „hey there was this new amazon mmo and something in ff14“. i never thought the next „wow killer“ would be blizz themselfes.

otherwise this will not end well…

yes, its possible. companies and their marketing/PR/management do that type of things. at least my ex-company did.

but in the end, it doesnt matter. they have to prevent customers from mass leaving and quickly get some of them back. and they will not achieve this, by quick done cheap shit 9.2 content, via recycling, cutted content and low quality. so, its tough for them. they need good stuff and they need it fast. since good stuff takes time, its a hard scenario for them.

but in the end, it doesnt matter what they do now, marketing wise. many ppls already left and if they not get something done (hype-able content), many more will follow. so, marketing or not, in the end they quickly need content. with quality. or xmas holidays will become the new wow killer.

anyway this will be a tough race for the wow team.

Who cares. If a 9.2 ptr is enough juice to steal the spotlight from endwalkers actual launch window, then that tells you all you need to know about final fantasy anyways.

If someone ever needs to know what mansplaining is, im just gonna send them too MMOCHAMP to see how users tell others how stuff works based on their own headcanon and ass-sumptions about corporate stuff

Oh my, that made me laugh more than it should have.

It won't, it just shows the hubris of Blizzard despite everything

Kind of a sad state when I'm more excited about the next Diablo 3 season than 9.2... but then again, D3 has been pumping out quality seasonal themes for like 2 years now.


"Maintenance mode" D3 wins again it seems. Very cool!

i'm still convinced that their will be no 9.3. i'm betting after 9.2 10. is next .

About time, 9.1.5 has (for me) nothing to offer.

Wow.

9.2 hitting PTR after 9.1.5 hit live servers?! WHO KNEW!

You dudes are completely whacky sometimes.

From where I sit, it looks like SE delayed Endwalker to compete with Legion Timewalking.... Who is scared of whom?

I'm sorry you're going through a rough time in your life that you think you need Blizzard, but they aren't helping you. They're only making your life worse. They lack any decent qualities worth defending and you shouldn't degrade yourself by trying to defend them.

Another FFIV fanboi trying to force his game on blizz forums. Trust me, no one cares about your beloved game as much as you seem to think as the earnings call proved. Blizz even less. So much for the "exodus" lmao

It is so hype so better be good!

Yeah, the absolute hubris of putting patch 9.2 on the public test realm a weak after patch 9.1.5 launches.

They should like, totally wait three months to start testing because god forbid a public test "compete" with another game's launch.

You guys are beyond silly. You realize that, right?
