The online version of the famous American business magazine "Forbes" recently published an article entitled "Is Blizzard Thinking Big ENOGH with 'Overwatch' and 'Heroes of the Storm'??)) "Review article.Paul Tassi, the editor of the Forbes magazine and the author of the article, believes that Blizzard has not improved in recent years.Some views.He pointed out that both games lack new ideas, and Blizzard has problems with the future planning of the two games.Paul Tassi believes that Blizzard's position in the world's game industry is constantly declining.

The following is an article translation:

Blizzard seems to finally say goodbye to the game classification that makes himself the world's top developer.

The two real -time strategic games, "Warrs" and "Starcraft", have been ruled by the PC game collar domain from the 1990s to the beginning of the 21st century."World of Warcraft" has evolved into "World of Warcraft" -The most successful MMORPG in history. "StarCraft" is still the leader in the real-time strategic game field.The work was released in 1996 and was also known as APRG's vanguard.

However, Blizzard still did not "go forward".StarCraft 2 (StarCraft 2 "is about to usher in the last expansion package." Diablo 3 "has not stopped updating. The content of" World of Warcraft "will continue to expand, as long as anyone plays.But can these works be called "new"? Blizzard is nothing more than the old pillow before filling with cotton.

First of all, they used "Hearthstone" to enter the mobile device market. This card game with the theme of "Warcraft" is the first step in the F2P game.After that, they had "Heroes of the Storm", as their trials for MOBA game field-this has replaced MMO and became the most popular game classification in the world today.Then we will get an Overwatch.Blizzard seems to realize that they missed the classification of the FPS before, and now they are vigorously promoting this game, letting players recall this ancient game classification.Blizzard has developed a variety of MMOs faster than ever, which is simply a disaster.

Here I want to make a brief analysis of "Heroes of the Storm" and "Overwatch", because I am very concerned about Blizzard's future planning of these two games.

"Heroes of the Storm" is called a more "tentacle" MOBA, which means that this game will be easier to get started thanTechnical requirements are not so high.I haven't understood why we need such a game.My understanding is that when a game has more than 6.7 million players every month, this game is "tentacles", which is kind. I don't understand why it must make it so simple.

Both "League of Legends" and "DOTA" have their own original characters and original worldviews and stories, but Blizzard has made "Heroes of the Storm" like a "All -Star" event, all of which come from the old works that exist.We pointed to all the characters: From Gim Renault to Hilvanas Windr, to Diablo, it has no "new" world that we want to explore here.The "multiple world" created by Blizzard for this game -heroes from different worlds suddenly became a group, and could not bring me any freshness.With the advent of the world competition, I hope to see more new performances of heroes, not just the characteristics they have.

I am also very worried about the popularity of "Heroes of the Storm".The attention related to its news is far less than a speed report in "League of Legends"."Heroes of the Storm" began to be tested publicly on May 19, but the recent game news has been by the newly expanded package of "The Withcer 3: Will 3" and "Destiny""of Wolves)" is completely occupied.The game will officially start the service on June 2, but I (a person working at a publishing house) only heard ESPN's "Heroes of the Dorm Tournament" in the past month. This may show that """Storm Heroes" is still far from the stable gaming game.Perhaps Blizzard does not have to pull the "DOTA" and "League of Legends" down the throne and become the leader of the MOBA field, but the market share obtained by Blizzard this time is too low.Blizzard was a representative word of MMO, RTS, and ARPG, but "Heroes of the Storm" may not be able to keep this tradition.

Let's talk about "Overwatch".I am looking forward to this game, but I am also worried.I also know that this semi -subscription MMO is not a future trend, but it is indeed a new IP work presented by Blizzard after 15 years.

Shooting games are indeed popular. "Call of Duty" is a good example. It also includes "Halo", which has always been popular, and "Destiny" that is growing rapidly.But Blizzard's steps are still a little strange.

Blizzard has been highly praised by the industry because of a huge worldview, complex stories, and mythical content in the game because the game produced has a huge worldview, complex stories, and mythical content in the game.But now, "Overwatch" is a bit like a "shooting part" of a large work.I like its character design very much, and I like its fast pace, but I always feel that such a game should not be from the hand of Blizzard.

Perhaps Blizzard really wants to predict the future, or even lead this trend by himself.Perhaps they want this game similar to the popularity of "Team Fortress" at the time of "Legion 2", as well asBefore successful, he took the lead in landing on the new continent of MOBAFPS and became a pioneer.But at present, Blizzard's plan to move towards the New World is not as expected.What the players want to get another epic work, not such a thing that looks like a small game.

Do you know what the most ridiculous thing is? That is, now there is a concept that is very similar to "Overwatch" and is rule this game classification-"Destiny".I started playing on the day of "Fate" and experienced all aspects of the game.Now I really think it has become an out -of -the -box MOBAFPS.It has huge potential, and it will change the world. The fixed player group it has will always play it in the next 10 years.But this successful IP should be created by Blizzard, not Bungie -a new studio formed by the original "Halo" development team.Now, Bungie has set up a huge worldview for their games, and Blizzard is still busy revising and modifying on the draft.

Perhaps what I said is a bit pessimistic, "Heroes of the Storm" will definitely get a group of fixed groups of player groups, as well as "Watching the Future".However, the current mobile game classification is ruled by Bungie. Blizzard looks so small at this time.
