D.Va’s voice actor, Charlet Chung, talks gaming as a girl and which character makes her the saltiest

Overwatch took the gaming world by storm when it was released by Blizzard in May 2016 and hasn’t let up since then. Every character on the game’s diverse roster has built a dedicated fanbase, but perhaps none as fervent as Hana Song, better known as D.Va. A lot of the attraction to D.Va can be attributed to her memorable, adorable quotes she throws in as she’s pwning noobs — “Nerf this!” she’ll yell as she hucks an exploding mech your way. “Hehe, GG!”

It would be nice if we could get to a time when people stop asking about "gaming as a _____" and just start asking about gaming in general.

meka26112828d ago

Feel the same way. Especially since recent studies showed guys get more harrassment online. Just play the damn game and stop putting us in groups. We are gamers, plain and simple.

It would be a bit weird playing and then realising that D.va's actually talking to you by name.
You'd be thinking - wow, the programming on this game is amazing!

I wonder how the USA tariffs war will affect that projection. 🤔

S2Killinit16h ago(Edited 16h ago)

I think they take that into consideration when they announce their projections. Currently, after the xbox price increase, the PRO is cheaper than the series x! That is ridiculous, and it can’t last.

darthv7210h ago

you keep saying that but the price of a PS5 Pro is S699.99 (US) and the price of a Series X is $599.99 (US)

S2Killinit9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

The series x with 2 TB storage space is more expensive than PS5 PRO which also has 2 TB storage space.

darthv729h ago(Edited 9h ago)

Oh so you are pitting a regular Pro with a special edition X... got it. If you are going so far as trying to compare apples to apples... please add in the optical drive and stand to the Pro. Seeing as the X has both of those by default.

I will help you if you are unable to do so.
PS5 Pro 2tb: $699.99, Optical Drive: $79.99, Stand: $29.99 = $809.97
Xbox Series X Galaxy Black Special Edition 2TB: $729.99

I wonder why they are shifting focus to MAU.

Because that's where the real money is made, in microtransactions.

Profchaos16h ago(Edited 16h ago)

People are spending less time playing is a typical trigger for this.

The less time spent playing the less likely you are to spend more money on games and services including subs or even the next console.

Increased engagement equals more money.

Same reason Microsoft does it: it looks better to investors and it's a solution when unit sales slow down.

Personally, I'm not a fan of this metric; and by using it, you're kind of signaling that you're moving into the "This is a PlayStation" era.
