When the response to this is a bunch of underwhelmed fans wanting to be there live, Blizzard be like, “Do you guys not have phones?”

Feels like it’s going to be one of those " this is what we have been doing since last time" kind of things, like a news update thing, doubt it will be anything really entertaining, though they will probably have like giveaways and stuff

(Did not read the OP article btw)

Same here. Blizzard and Bioware are two companies that I don’t have faith in anymore.

I would like something substantial about Overwatch 2 but I’ll just catch the highlights of whatever happens.

Same here, but I also would never have attended before anyway. So no change for me.
