Zikten 04/25/24 3:05:40 PM #3:	Wouldn't this have been the first one held by Microsoft? Maybe Microsoft just doesn't want to do it, period. I wouldn't be surprised if it never comes back.

Smashingpmkns 04/25/24 3:07:23 PM #6:	It's most likely because they're not working on anything substantial due to the massive restructuring and layoffs.

ClayGuida 04/25/24 3:10:00 PM #10:	I think they may try to just make a Microsoft event and include it, but I guess it makes sense to cancel it since there's not much in the pipeline other than the new WoW xpac. OW2 has nothing new going on, Hearthstone is the same shit over and over, and they haven't done shit with Starcraft in like a decade now. Guess they could do something for Warcraft in general, since it's like a 25 or 30 year anniversary or something. --- lolAmerica <cite>ClayGuida posted [p:980090704] in Blizzcon i...

Like idk what they'd show some skins for games people don't even like anymore lol yeah I dont really think theyd have much to show. WoWs next xpac is dropping this year so they wouldnt have anything major to cover there besides content patches. Diablo 4..I cant see an expansion announcement being received well any time this year.
