Good evening, everyone.
Over the last couple of years, I've been watching these forums and seen some "odd" topics come up now and again. Topics that are to spark both creativity, discussion and also conclusions.
Now, I've often been one for asking questions simply to incite discussion and whatnot, like: "If Sylvannas go bad, would you forgive her? What would take for you to forgive her?" - that was actually a thread posted a few years back.
So the reason why I am making this post is to incite thoughts and discussion:
Do you think Blizzard have either employees hanging out in fanbases to "take the temperature" regarding certain topics, incite discussions and otherwise gather data for "what if we write the lore this way?"? Do you think this is a good way to get in touch with their playerbase, or should they do more surveys?
Writing this, I realize I might sound like I have been hired or placed her by blizzard themselves (I am just a curious gamer is all
), but do you guys think that many of the threads out there are planted?
