Do you think Blizzard will make hero collector / gacha game based on World of Warcraft lore? That would be awesome.
I think there is not that much competition. Summoners War is too old. Raid:SL concept and graphics are very decent, but poorly implemented, the company seems to be too predatory and is interested to grab money as much as possible. Others are mostly Chinese / Japan games, I personally don’t like their theme.
Keeping similar gameplay like SW and RSL would be good.
Gachas don’t directly compete with each other except for their “whales”, but since most of them use the dreaded stamina system it’s very common for gacha players to play 2 and 3 of them at the same time.
To be honest there’s been only 1 gacha that retained my attention and that’s Fire Emblem Heroes. Just the Warcraft universe wouldn’t be enough to keep me interested if it wasn’t utilised in a proper genre. Knowing Blizzard with Activision influences they’d make some stupid auto-play hack’n’slash like Diablo Immortal, despite the RNG tactics genre being completely ripe for the picking without a Final Fantasy Tactics game release since ages ago.
If we take Hearthstone as an example, they are also really bad at controlling power creeping. And power creeping is a real problem in this type of games which eventually alienates F2P players and the game dies because the P2W players have no one to compete with.
