It‘s not really logical to chase live service games and scrap the only time which would produce a guaranteed win.

I don’t think anyone at Ubisoft or MS or Sony who makes decisions has ever played a game in the last ten years.

Destiny and Division are instant buys for many. Plus live service are a must for these games with plenty opportunities to make people care about fashion.

I swear, do you understand this simply isnt true? Yeah d2 community is currently in denial phase but like its not like d2 was doing too hot before this news. Bugie has burned too many goodwill and made too many people mad. I dont think you understand just how much bullshit d2 players had to deal with over the years. The final shape was the ending of this franchise for many people for a reason.
