No, Blizzard and Google aren’t required to keep their services online. No, this isn’t the first time a major corporation has opened a trap door under a game and made it disappear forever.

Mitsuru Kirijo is one of the many people in the SEES Dormitory who joins the party in Persona 3 to make progress in Tartarus. She can seem a bit too strict at times, but it won't take long for players to figure out that her character is deeper than what she lets on.

Kaplan does seem to have big plans for Overwatch 2 , and the story mode may end being phenomenal.

But right now, Overwatch 2 seems like the same old Overwatch , only now everyone has a fancy new hairst


Sojourn has been said to be one of the primary characters in Overwatch 2. Everything is likely to revolve around her, which is a nice change of pace from having Tracer as the continuous poster girl of the franchise. Hopefully, fans will get to see different characters increasingly take center stage in Overwatch 2, like Sojo

It’s the same corporate avarice that led us to Stadia , only Google was far more incompetent with how they sold it. Fortunately, Google has more money than there are gods in the heavens; they can (mostly) pay people back for the company’s mistake . But remember Stadia wasn’t a live game that just didn’t take off. It was an entire platform that didn’t take off. A platform that Google promised would stay online for the foreseeable future. And, like Blizzard, Google could also afford the servers.


Regardless of whether players initiate a romance with her or not, Mitsuru is an iconic female redhead video game character whose personality develops as she reconciles with Yukari and makes her peace with her father's untimely demise. In battle, she uses status effects and ice abilities to punish any enemy foolish enough to stand in their

Well, it turns out I was wrong. Quite wrong.

And that's a very bad thing when it comes to maintaining a stable fanbase for your multiplayer shoo


After all, Activision has a reputation as the company that likes to drive its games into the ground with constant releases. It released so many Guitar Hero games that it practically salted the Earth when it comes to the rhythm genre. It's also easy to remember that Bungie was originally said to have a ten-year plan for Destiny until Destiny 2 went into production.

Just because a sequel exists doesn’t mean I don’t want to play the original. When Warcraft 3 came out, I didn’t want Warcraft 2 erased from existence - even if Warcraft 3 had more content.
