1/ A bit of conversation about EA and #ActivisionBlizzard. This last quarter demonstrated just how important KING has been for ActiBlizz, especially as engagement has fallen on #CallofDuty and many Blizzard products (Diablo Immortal helped pad Blizzard up a bit).
2/ Don't get me wrong, I'm actually engaged with many Blizzard products and I play plenty of Call of Duty, but between launches, it is clear that much of the consumer market isn't as engaged as they used to be. So where does that leave Acti and Blizz?
3/ In regards to segment income, each comes in roughly over 90 million USD this last quarter. Combined, and without King, that places those two segments under EA (the company) in regards to operating income. King is a mobile juggernaut so we need to set them aside for a moment.

¿Aburrido este domingo, perdido en un vórtice de tus propios pensamientos?

¡Perdete en el vórtice de pensamientos de otro!

Esta semana, por ejemplo, salió la (hermosa) nueva @lacosacine. Escribí sobre el fin de la idea de la temporada televisiva. lacosacine.store/tienda/revista… Image
En #TPLT hablamos de cómo en el final de una generación, lo viejo se hace nuevo otra vez. Rescates (#AmongUs), remakes (#TonyHawk) y remasters (#SuperMario3DAllStars). Además, aproveché para vender un poquito #CrusaderKings3 (¡está en #GamePass!). open.spotify.com/episode/3jCtNG… Image
Para #JuegosCondenados en @culturageek hablé de #DragonAge2. La secuela desarrollada en 14 meses de un hit que tomó siete años de laburo. Fue la primera señal del cambio de #BioWare bajo #EA, pero vale la pena rescatarlo. Fallido, pero interesante. culturageek.com.ar/juegos-condena…

El servicio de suscripción #EAPlay acaba de aparecer en Steam. A cincuenta pesos (PESOS!) por mes y $299 por AÑO. Una locura. Tiene unos 50 juegos en el catálogo y, como #GamePass, te permite jugar lo que quieras mientras estés suscripto. Netflix gamer. Image
EA, por supuesto, es mucho más que #FIFA y #Battlefield (¡aunque también están esos!). Lo mejor de la selección para mí es lo de #BioWare: las trilogías completas de #DragonAge y #MassEffect.

(sí, Mass Effect es una trilogía y no acepto correcciones al respecto, @Zripwud) Image
Pero no es todo lo que hay. También están los #DeadSpace (los dos primeros son excelentes), #Titanfall2 (mejor campaña de FPS de la década pasada), el todavía excelente #Crysis, #BattlefieldBadCompany2, #AWayOut y grandes juegos de autitos: #BurnoutParadise y #NFSMostWanted. Image

1/ Launched on December 20, 2011, #SWTOR (Star Wars The Old Republic) was a successful release, but soon found itself rapidly losing #MMORPG customers due to weak end game support and the mistake of opening too many servers at once.
2/ #Bioware quickly reformed the game into a F2P + Premium model that saw many people return or come back to the game casually. Those of us that stuck with it were treated to many years of high quality content and a ridiculous amount of story + #RPG content.
3/ While #SWTOR was never the #WorldOfWarcraft "killer" that people may have wanted, it was an excellent MMORPG in its own right, being constantly updated, even today. I stuck with it many years (2011-2015) and once more in 2018.
