The big news yesterday you might have missed is that Blizzard made record breaking profits in 2018 and as a reward to their employees, laid off 800 of them.

I saw that. Between that, Buzzfeed and I think a third company posting record profits but also posting record profits, while also having a government shut down that left people forced to work without pay, the theme of this year really seems to be "UNIONIZE"

I also did start playing Overwatch again right about the time that news hit, so sorry everyone.

Rather than showing off a new character, they're going to announce that they're removing one from Smash.

It's not really Mercenaries mode though it seems a little different. Because it's a map with a goal, it's like a mix between Mercenaries and HUNK mode.

They're alright, but it's not the same. Who knows when the Copen one will finally come out, but it should be good.

I know it's more a thing about main characters in serial animes but it is almost kind of staggering how long the character trailer for Jump Force goes on and how few of the characters shown are women. Like I thought Fighterz was bad in this regard but it looks so much worse when your pulling from so many series.

It's still not great and they have a tendency to handle their female casts poorly even beyond that, but yeah, Jump Force is largely drawing from action comics for boys. The demo labels as a whole aren't that hard set a sole signifier of readers or content, but what you see is what you get for the most part in this case.
