I don't get it. In a capitalist economy, market should operate according to public demand.
>steamchart memeFinally learning that's not a reflection of reality?
>>223163738Blizzard are making a show BECAUSE the IP is flagging retard. it's a marketing outlay.
the fact gamers universally rejected bloatware like GameSpy then collectively decided>oh golly gee i sure hope this game is on Steam(R): the GOOD adware launcher!just proves how retarded they all are.same goes for weeaboos and the fact Crunchyroll lasted more than a year.
Anyone can play and enjoy DiabloPoE is only enjoyed by autists
>>223163888>anyone can play $80 for a game with 2 days of content then memoryhole it for evercorrect but that doesn't mean they will
>>223163888I would argue only slavishly loyal Blizzdrones would ever consider Diable III, IV, Immortal, V, etc worth their time. How long can you trade on name alone? Whoa... Blizzard. Doubt anyone there was even involved with the foundational games that made the company. Just Indians and blue hairs.
>America>Capitalist economy
>>223163738Most people playing Diablo 4 are on Battle.net.
Grim Dawn would make the best movie. But Dick Tock retards only play Diablow and Shart of Excrement to beg for loose change on Twitch.
You can increase demand through a revolutionary concept called advertising
>>223164386Nah. Grim Dawn was all over the place. Cowboy western, medieval fantasy, chutulu, postapocalyptic zombies, it's just a big mess.
>>223166010>story is about an apocalypse caused by a merging of multiple dimensions>dude wtf why is [multiple dimensions] here?
>>223163738That's not capitalism. It's socialists who think that if they force you long enough, then you'll like the shit they're shoveling.
>>223164862Marketing has never once increased demand. It can only increase product reach.
>>223163738>ignores bnet, where 99% of D4 players are
>>223163738>muh player count
>>223163868Saaaar
>>223163738real capitalism has never been tried
My honest take is that the premise is not true in the current world.It's ONLY true that a capitalist economy is driven by the market of goods on demand.... if there's no usury, interest rates, future bonds speculation, debt reselling, etc.All those systems are designed to not give a FUCK about public demand: They are all systems to create money, from less money.So you say "Public demand should influence this product!" but you cohexist in the economy with them getting money from elsewhere and not the product.Rings of Power existing should be a clear example of this. It doesn't matter if the product is not good, if doesn't matter that the people don't like it, it doesn't matter than the critics don't like it. You will have all the seasons it said it'll have, disregarding what any of the public wants. It's the best example.
>>223167443This but unironically
>>223164266Lie + Cope + D4 flopped
>>223167672>please to buy the PoO saar
>>223166010It would obviously be just the base game scenario with Grim John as the lead. Done well it would be badass as fuck.
>>223167809What the fuck is this Thanksgiving ass shit?
>>223167752>noooo there are trillions of players you just can't see them!!!Cope
>>223167903>noooo>schizoPort Royal.
>>223167809That design is already trash and all over the place bruh>civil war buckles>victorian era hat>warcraft pauldron>fantasy cloth bracer with metal studs that never existed
>>223167913D4 flopped. Stay mad, blizztroon.
>>223167944>made nearly half of what PoO 1+2 has combined over 10 years in 5 days>Microsoft stated it's their biggest earner
>>223167973lol it literally just cancelled its expansions yesterday, D4 fags are fuming
>>223163738PoE1 in absolute shambles.PoE2 supremacy!all shall kneelverification not req'd
>>223167994>lol>stupid shitIt makes more off one season than PoO makes in a year. You don't need 400 expansions.
>>223168035so great and profitable that blizzard doesnt even need its moneynta btw
>>223168065>makes more than PoO>but PoO is winningNAGAY, btw
>>223167443that is true tho. smith's invisible hand required that all participants have perfect knowledge. no secrets, no obfuscations, and no mistakes. this isn't feasible.
>>223168035Are you a Blizzard accountant or something? Why should customers use sales as a talking point when talking about a product?
>>223168078I don't play PoE. PoE2 can't even run on my system, I tried.
>>223168086>says D4 flopped>I bring up its revenue>"SALES AREN'T RELEVANT TO THIS DISCUSSION, SHILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
>>223168103D4 did flop, its company dropped support for it at the surprise of literally everyone. Successful products don't get abandoned out of the blue in this market.
>>223163997Is that fucking Hamburger Hepler?
Personally I just stick to D2 ResurrectedWhy would I play anything other than the peak ARPG?
>>223168137It didn't flop, but I can't use the money it makes as support for my argument, since that's shilling. I can only say to buy the PoO saar, because me advertising it here for the good saars at GGG isn't shilling saar.
>>223168207You sound like a complete faggot. I don't know what you get out of slurping Blizzard's dick 24/7 considering they just abandoned your gay ass. There's nothing left to internet defense force for.
>>223168251Please buy PoO saar. It is meny much gooders than the D4 which is shilled. PoO made 5000 gorillion Nintendo rupees last week.
>>223168279No one cares about D5. D4 flopped and has been abandoned. You can keep LARPing as an indian to cope all you want.
>>223168333Please buy the PoO saar. D5 is the bad. Nintendo rupees are the good.
>>223168279this but unironicallyhttps://youtu.be/Xqn0QQ9uGhI?si=ahRxghqk0MtOipfU
>>223168376Imagine watching trailers or listening to music from trailers.
>>223168333>No one cares about D5that's why they're making a show I guess.hope they hire some actual writers, Blizzard's storytelling hasn't been good for decades.
>>223168391Blizzard better hope their audience watch trailers because they put more creativity into those than their actual games.
>>223168391>I cannot enjoy music unless it has been marketed specifically as standalone music on iTunesMust suck to be a low IQ subhuman, I guess.
>>223168397>Blizzard's storytelling hasn't been good everThey're bottom of the barrel with Rockstar.>>223168425>if you're not this extreme, you're this extremeImagine being so autistic that nuance eludes you.
>>223168443Music doesn't stop being music because it was used in something, retard.
>>223168391I'm actually subbed to Kamil on youtube because he's the best videogame composer since the nintendo guys in the 90s.
>>223168495But having watched a trailer makes me wonder how you would know about it otherwise. You shouldn't be watching trailers unless you live in one.
>>223168647Yep, you are in fact a complete retard.
>>223168664Yet you're one in practice.
>>223163738enjoy your act 2 and 3 lmao
>>223163738I will stick with D2
>>223168736That's not D2. That's Diablo 2.
>>223163738Does PoE even have a plot? Also it's not Diablo 4 that earned that adaption, it's Diablo 1&2. You know, the games in whose shadow you live to this day?
>>223168811It does and it's good but it's convulted and meanders.Not saying Diablo's plot is any good tho. Diablo's plot is straigthforward but trash. Poe's plot is good but convulted.
>>223168939You're a fucking contrarian retard if you think exile's plot is anything good. it's convoluted AND trash. Diablo's is direct and simple. Not bad in the least.
>>223168985retard post
>>223168985Contrarianism is an external designation that is practically solipsism. Where only your opinions are genuine and all others exist only to antagonize you.
>>223168184>>223168736/thread>>223168985also true
they're making a diablo show?great, my day is ruined
>>223168985>Diablo has awaken, and when you kill it, you become Diablo with the Diablo stone>Diablo was awaken, and when you kill it, you break the diablo stone>Diablo has awaken without his diablo stone, with a different Diablo stone, and when you kill it, you free Diablo from his stone I guess?I don't even know the plot of 4 but it's probably equally trash, and involves Diablo stones,and Diablo friends that you have killed over, and over and over again.Basically nothing ever matters because when a new game drops, even if you kill everyone and destroy all diablo stones, someone somewhere made a diablo stone somehow and everyone is back.Again.
>>223163738Capitalism? Whatever that is.We are supposed to be about enterprising productions.IE making new things and producing something of worthwhile.The world is suffering under ursury IE debt based economy strangling the common folks which stagnates and produces less and less.Also did wallstreet really announce a jewflix diablo show? Bet you the opening shot has niggers in it.
>>223163738we dont live in a capitalist economy, it's a soviet tier command economy operated by blackrock and their social experiments
>>223168985trueI hated the campaign so much I quit the gameit makes POE1 campaign look like a masterpiece and i hate POE1 campaign
>Somehow, Diablo has returned. Amazing story, really needs a tv show for no reason.
Is being made by the pajeet faggot behind Castlevanie and DMC?
