Kind of funny cause I was asking a friend of mine who was trying to get employment at blizzard (ended up getting into hi-rez instead) about painting like blizzard. His style was up their ally and was in contact with a few of the guys who work there. He gave me a toolset apparently used by blizzard guys of smudge brushes.…
honestly I dont see where your coming from on this post at all or what Blizzard and monthly subscriptions has to do with any of this. any profit made by a studio could be used to spur further development on the game or future games. thats a given. why are you trying to argue that a subscription is different then just…
