Blizzard and Nintendo are also the companies that have scrapped the most games that I know of.

Even if you dislike their games, you have to admit they 1) have the best polish, 2) always communicate clearly what's in the game. If I don't like a Nintendo or Blizzard game I would know much before I buy it.

> have the best polish

Overwatch was a buggy mess in the first year and disposing a weird handling of inputs to the max. SC2:WoL and previous season in LotV had the most unbalanced multiplayer towards single race in a whole 20 years history of the franchise.

> always communicate clearly what's in the game

Like getting hype in Diablo community towards Blizzcon 2018 to ask "You don't have phones?"

Other companies give you a 3 minute video to get you hyped about a game.

Nintendo gives us 3 minute videos apologizing for a previous video announcing that a game was in development and that they're restarting development because they don't like where it was going.

One of these companies is worth your money, the others aren't.
