The Business: Network Effect Convergence In Action

The shill channels are cutting videos on the new WOW tie-in book for Official Edition.

Told you that this was a defacto merger strat. Now you're seeing it in action.

You can expect more of this when the Mouse Wars book hits.

The Networks are merging.

The end goal is that THERE IS ONE ENTERTAINMENT MONOCULTURE where all IP engagement is corpo-controlled across ALL media.

People refuse to look past their own noses, so I won't be surprised to see people being unable to comprehend this being the objective, but it is.

WOW Forever pioneeers official controller support for the MMO. That can be done with a Steam Deck, which means it's a half-step away from being playable on mobile.

Tabletop, via Official Edition, is also moving to being playable on mobile.

The mobile app for Official Edition is a few years away. The merging of the two games into a single property briding over multiple media is even further away, but it is now clearly on the table; Fortnite paved the way, and this is the next step in that same business model.

I underestimated how bad the commercial side of the cataclysm that came upon the Cargo Cult is, and how devastating this damage shall shake out to be.
