Morality system huh? I wonder what’s it gonna be like? Maybe don’t harm innocent civilians at all to get a generic good ending?
If it's anything like the morality systems of yore, you'll need to go out of your way to get a bad ending as half the objectives in the game count towards your 'good boy points' for some reason. Seemed like the only way to get bad endings in half of those games was to kill every civilian while otherwise doing a pacifist run.

Destroyed all the enemy tanks? Good boy points.
Found a hidden weapon cache? Good boy points.
Shot the brown right people, even though you went out of your way to start from the ankles up every time? Good boy points.

That and the different endings will be a change in narration, musical key, and lighting and/or screen filter.

Goodbye indie publisher known for quirky games and conferences, hello to another generic investor-bound corp.

Maybe not immediately, but chances of it turning out that way eventually are pretty high. Oh well, they had a good run.

This was pretty much coming with all the shit going down at Blizzard, but today they've officially announced that Diablo 4 and Overwatch 2 are delayed forever (and probably willl never happen). I see this as the first sign of Activision shutting the studio down completely, or at very least taking over entire control over every project and course correcting which would be the better option.

Weird on the Overwatch 2 side of things I thought that was pretty close to launch. Theyd been talking about it forever.

That's what they wanted you think. Even at the beginning at the first reveal, they had no idea what they wanted other than more of the same thing, and paying lip service by saying the sequel will have a single player mode this time. Either games are not worth the suffering and they can take them and shove it up their anal hole.

Seems like the developers were too busy acting like rockstar sluts than actually doing their fucking jobs if you ask me.
