Or maybe it’s just a wishful thinking, but I got a surprising e-mail from Wargaming that made me laugh. Not with them, at them.
It really feels like Wargaming becomes desperate after collapse of their Community Contributors program in Summer 2021, after which a lot of prominent streamers reduced the number of WOWS videos on their channels or moved to another titles. Now WG is sending bizarre e-mails to inactive users, like me, who got tired of their constant introduction of more and more broken mechanics into World of Warships.
Hey, there!
Commander! Submarines and superships have been added to the game! To prepare for these new battle factors, Warships HQ is authorizing you to reset Commander skills and demount upgrades free of charge. Take advantage of this opportunity, and good luck in battle!
Yup, Wargaming felt obligated to inform me, someone who never spent much money in their game and left it more than a year ago, that there are submarines! And superships! I guess, they ran out of whales to milk and now they scrap bottom of barrel, hoping to bring back even casual players, like me.
What can I say? Wargaming, I’m flattered that you remember me when you are desperate, but I know there are submarines in your game. That’s why I left last year...

Wargaming.net, a company behind World of Tanks and World of Warships (also World of Warplanes, but realistically who cares?) is apparently leaving Russia and Belarus.
World of Warships - the final chapter
No, it’s not gonna be another "World of Warships is dead" or "WOWS is dying" article. Unfortunately, this completely broken game is alive, and it looks like with the community they have, it will be alive for a long, long time. But it is a final chapter - I’m done.
New Fallout game is coming!
It is coming in about 12 to 15 years to be exact. After recent presentation of Starfield gameplay Todd Howard confirmed that Fallout is the basic DNA of Bethesda, so of course there will be next title.
5 reasons Stalker 2 failed
Six months since the premiere of Stalker 2, the title dropped to about 6,000 users in weekly peaks, which means about 4% of those who played the game in November still roam the Zone, which is not a great success. Here are 5 reasons the game failed, and none of them has anything to do with the ongoing war in Ukraine.
