These days, before a new Street Fighter releases players have researched and number-crunched with the gusto of a rocket science research lab, assembling tier lists and theorizing optimal move combos immediately posted on Reddit and YouTube. вЂњThe reality is that almost everybody was playing the game wrong,вЂќ says Hazzikostas. But in the next town over, arcade regulars battled with different tricks, different strategies, a different hierarchy of characters. вЂњYouвЂ™d have a whole competitive hierarchy in a local arcade, a local videogame store, where there was some character that was perceived as the best or the strongest because some person in the neighborhood was great with them,вЂќ he says. To explain, he swerved over to Street Fighter. On a call with WIRED, he reminisced about how, early in the history of games, before raid walk-through videos, data-mining dumps, and Easter egg maps, opacity was a double-edged sword. Hazzikostas, known to the World of Warcraft community as Watcher, has developed the 16-year-old massively multiplayer online role-playing game since 2008. вЂњGames are very rapidly solved these days,вЂќ says Ion Hazzikostas, the game director of World of Warcraft.
