Giant Bomb - Extra Life 2015 | Give Money to Children's Hospitals

This might be the most boring conference I've ever seen.

It's a conference for a company that makes... six games? Several of which are on the downswing of their relevance? One of which is a collectible card game?

I've never totally understood how they have enough content for all of this pomp & circumstance.

Hope that's not an indication about the quality of the game.

An enormous fan base that they've cultivated over 20+ years?

I mean Austin played games for like 14 hours straight just prior to this.

As I said at the start of this stream, the SF office seems to go for much more of a sit-in studio angle than a games livestream for their portion.

That Justin!

There's a great deal of Blizzard fans who buy their games just because they're from them. And they know to keep that audience in their ecosystem.

Oh that's interesting. Didn't know he played. Thought it was just a weird celeb endorsement thing.

Well, it is now I guess. And like Jeff said, it is not by chance that there's this weird sometimes scummy parallel with gambling and esports/online gaming either. Twitch is certainly on it too.
 
That's cool! Any details on more Mario Maker hijinks?
Dan has been making a level since the beginning with chat input (he's quarantined in the QL room because he's sick) but it seems to have morphed in to something far more nefarious and sinister and he's sending it to Patrick when its done.
