gigglesvideo EA added a LOT of microtransactions into the new Star Wars Battlefront, which is already an expensive paid game to begin with. Even beyond stupid broken stuff like unlocking weapons and increasing your stats, that includes one of the basic features of all the Battlefront games: occasionally in a match, the people highest on the scoreboard get to play as named characters from the movies, with all the OP force powers and stuff that they have. So all of a sudden if you want to play Luke in a Star Wars game, which you already paid for, you either pay extra money or unlock it by playing for like 40 hours. People got mad, EA answered a reddit post saying "we hear you, we're gonna be "nice" by lowering the cost of the unlocks" (while sneakily lowering the rewards you could earn to unlock them btw, lol) and it's now the most downvoted comment in reddit history That's why "can't I pay for stronger units" part, while probably unintentional, comes out sounding like a burn against EA
Somehow this talks a lot for the actual system pay to win in some games, let it be a reminder of real life, everything good comes with great effort and time wisely spend so GIT GUD
This a direct jab at EA's recent PR disaster with Battleground II. It's amazing that Blizzard came up with an excellent ad like this so fast, literally only a matter of days.
Bill Killernic IT IS like real life, people often cheat the system into thinking they're good and capable for the place or title you hold, but that doesn't mean you're good at something, sure it has advantages but the real gameplay and ability comes of our own actions
EA = Pay to win Blizzard= Here's a treadmill, hop on and try not to fall behind. 5 minutes later Blizzard= Yeah you're like 15 tiers behind, u suck, play moar.
2017: makes fun of p2w
2022: goes whole hog on predatory P2W
Like literally employs casino analysts to create the most addictive and predatory P2W aspects possible.
Im sure blizzard is going to pull this down ASAP
555 like, nice
This aged like milk.
You came here from reddit
It sure did
In Russia milk cheese you.
Starcraft fan then: Why did Blizzard abandon us?
_Diablo Immortal releases_
Starcraft fan now: Thank God Blizzard abandoned us.
"cries in wc3"
War3 Reforged, Diablo Immortal... next is Starcraft Dragooned
Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it
Those who forget to care are doomed to repeat it.
Apparently Blizzard forgot shortly after filming this commercial
This has aged well.
Those who remember history may still choose to repeat it.
Live long enough to see yourself become the villain - ay Blizzard?
Blizzard Employee: "Hey look one of our old videos is getting loads of views again, whats go-..... oh no...."
1 year later Blizzard going full EA who would have guessed
They were already full EA with WoW.. just saying.
4 years later Blizzard literally releasing one of the most disgusting examples of Pay 2 Win in video game history...
@@GadflyChannel Came here to say this. How the mighty have fallen.
5 years later Blizzard can teach EA how to actually do it.
-edit: lol im too late

"Hidden"... Any more obvious and they would get their asses sued LUL
HIDDEN!?
It still went over my head... where is this jab? Lol

Granted, Activision Blizzard started this whole Lootbox craze. So I don't see why they're pointing a finger and going 'Haha!'
Aged like milk
I'll admit it, this video got a giggle out of me.
Edgy Edgington just wait....
LOL WHERE IS THE MIRROR FOR PRESENT TIMES?!?!?
Boy they messed up with this diablo stuff. I'm getting whipped by dudes with maxed our gems
Lol to everyone who's watching this after Diablo Immortals Pay-to-win model gets busted
They're like Valve, but with deadlines.
nah, actually blizzard can count to 3
But can they count to 4..?
SleepingAran lol blizzard can't count to 4, Warcraft... Warcraft 3, world of warcraft
They already announced Warcraft 4 at BlizzCon ;)
Unfortunate events come in 3's
Oh how the times have changed. The irony Blizzard, the irony!
oh how the milk aged
God, I love this game
THIS AGED LIKE MILK
Not cringe for once, gg blizzard
This was the only cringy advert I've ever seen from Blizzard...?
Throwaway I'm pretty sure normal people play video games lmao
Cannibalis the ending with the woman was cringe. Other then that pretty good
I cringed pretty hard when he pronounced the W in "rekt"
Knoxx62 - Watch some of the hearthstone ads that went on live tv.
This aged like the opposite of fine wine
@Plix Bad wine?
RIP Blizzard
Angry Joe sent me here.
You were the chosen one Blizzard
Meant to bring balance to the games

..................
more like 4.5 years later but yeah that was the trailer
it didn't look good then, and it's even worse now
This aged... yeah...

This game is a legacy by itself!
And then they destroyed their legacy in one fell swoop
@@agoogolofgeese nah. Starcraft 2 still Guci.
@@radosawurban2403 you’re Guci
This didn't age well.

And here we are with Diablo immortal.
That was almost as good as the LOTV intro
Oh boy this aged well
Somehow this talks a lot for the actual system pay to win in some games, let it be a reminder of real life, everything good comes with great effort and time wisely spend so GIT GUD

no let it not be a reminder from real life because real life is pay to win lol xD
Bill Killernic IT IS like real life, people often cheat the system into thinking they're good and capable for the place or title you hold, but that doesn't mean you're good at something, sure it has advantages but the real gameplay and ability comes of our own actions
Yep, that's why StarCraft 2, DayZ, and Pillars of Eternity are some of my favorite games of all time.
So does money.
this aged like fine milk
So... what about Diablo Immoral then?
Shots fired!! 🔥🔥🔥
this... aged badly
Diablo Immortal brought me here.
Oh this aged well.....
Oh how the table turns...
"if that thing is wreckt,i swear..." ,nice Blizzard nice,GG WP

Oh, the irony now that D:I has been 'released' ...
Ahahaha. As a Battlefront player, thank you so much for this. The amount of shade thrown is just beautiful.
sorry about that but...
now：pay pay pay
Never played StarCraft, but this commercial was absolutely hysterical.
Oh sure, yeah. Take those shots ACTIVISION Blizzard.
This was brilliant.
"Can't i buy some stronger units". I hope this game won't go down that route.
Bury your hopes, naive child
Don't you guys have credit card?
You guys are the best video game company ever.
Thankyou. I now have a refreshed urge to go play starcraft and leave work 6 hours early
Best videogame ad of my life.
Well this aged like milk.....
Aged like the finest French wine from the finest region of soil made of pixie dust
watching this after cancelling preorder feels so good
This commercial aged like milk.
