Children under 18 have to technically have a parent buy the game for them.
Thankfully it's not like that over here, it's just a recommended age

It is very obvious that consoles players are not their main focus. PC gets more frequent updates, better balancing, and let's not forget that there are custom Overwatch PC accessories. Where are the Overwatch custom controllers? I wouldn't go so far as to say they don't give a ***about console peasants, but it does seem pretty clear that the console version was an afterthought, an easy enough to port over project to tack on some extra sales at release PLUS I think a big reason it even got a console release was just to crush out that last little bit of what would have been Battleborn's playerbase.

Grumpy Cat said: » They tried to cheat me that way when I was a kid but I knew it wasn't an actual law And it was just GTAIII anyway Btw - I use XIM4 and it's total poop compared to real M+KB cuz it's analog movement. Meaning I cant move my mouse 4" slowly/quickly back and forth and wind up aiming in the same location. It's using analog stick aim instead. Sucks.

Funniest thing is watching peasant dev Blizzard begging Square Enix to publish thier game in Japan.
FFXI vs WoW lol. After realizing such... Bismarck.Misao said: » ಠ_ಠ dafuq idk if troll or....
Siren.Akson said: » peasant dev Blizzard Quote: but WoW! Siren.Akson said: » Exactly. Lmfao Bismarck.Misao said: » idk if troll or.... Siren.Akson said: » peasant dev Blizzard Quote: but WoW! Siren.Akson said: » Exactly. Lmfao <_< They need to sell on console and take control >_> People in Japan probably don't know Blizzard since most of their products are for PC and they're mainly a console country. It makes sense to ask a HUGE console name like SE to publish it for them.

Also WoW and XI never really competed. Very different types of players

it is not uncommon to have another company help out with distribution. back in the day Eidos helped SE with FF7/8 when it was released to PC. same kind of deal happens with companies bringing JP games to NA, s they also have to deal with localization if the original studio isnt up for the task.

If PC devs knew what they were doing, like Blizzard, they would be making alot more money across the board.
Yeah, investing time and money into the smaller portions of my target audience is such a good idea. I should totally stop focusing on the much larger playerbase.
Akson, you should really take some econ classes man, this stuff is basic. And you know what, that isn't even getting into the rigmarole involved with getting games onto console in the first place. You do know that there are tons of different certifications and guidelines you have to adhere to when releasing a game on consoles, even more specific to multiple regions, that you simply get to ignore altogether with PC? It really isn't cost effective for a company who already has a strong platform on PC to spend much time on console development when quite simply, they don't have to.

Rated M if just a PC exclusive game w/ all I suggested would have made Overwatch alot better. I understand the principle behind Rated T trying to maximize sales but it failed. Games like GoW, GTA, MGS have all proven that you dont need to water down "gun combat" gameplay just to be able to sell your game. If just for PC sake. Blizzard should ditch console and just make a better game on PC.
ofcourse sales would be bad on console, because people would just buy the pc version over the console version. duh.
I am not sure what you mean with watered down combat... the game is all about combat. heck, even splatoon is clean combat and fun as hell.
