So it was my unfortunate task to report that WildStar is such a non-factor in NCSoft’s eye that they’ve outright stopped including the IP in their quarterly reports as of Q4 2016. While they haven’t completely expunged the game from the record, relegating it instead to the “Other Sales” segment of their quarterly and yearly earnings, it still is a very worrying thing, especially as we all bear in mind the company we’re dealing with here.

In fact, it’s the behavior of that very company that prompted this post. NCSoft is very good at cutting the things away from them that they feel are hurting their bottom line, and the reshuffle of WildStar as an inconsequential IP has me reliving City of Heroes all over again.

@wolfyseyes Fun faxt-that took a lot of time to type put accurately. Much like this post, it needed efiting. XD

Seriously, I’m terrible at this Tweet Machine thing.

The other part of Twitter that I have a bit of a hard time with is its forced brevity.  And, because I like the idea of Follow Friday but hate the idea of being limited to 140 characters, I’ll be taking this Blaugust post to share my favorite people that I follow.  Specifically, those who I have found in my life as excellent and opinionated people.  People who inspire, entertain, delight or otherwise have enriched my own blogging and digital life.
