Blizzard Responds to Diablo: Immortal Backlash


Yep. Never understood that show though. The show about absolutely nothing.

Why all the anger? This isn't the same Blizzard from decades ago. They have been different ever since Activision acquired them. They had some great games in the past and developed those games fairly quickly, WC2, WC2 expansion, SC, BW, WC3, WC3 expansion, D2, and D2 expansion. WOW was also great. Their more recent games have been alright but not as good as the classics.

Some of us already see how much they've fallen. Others have been clinging on to hope. I imagine the latter crowd was the one attending Blizzcon and weren't ready for more slaps to the face.

I am lost as to what this has to do with much of anything?

I actually don't play any Blizzard Games ATM, haven't since second season Overwatch. Just because I don't play them doesn't mean I can't understand why this backlash occured, it was stupid to announce a mobile title with a script that was written for an investors conference to a crowd of gamers on a main stage at a gaming con. This isn't rocket science, hell it isn't even grade school, its just common sense (which is seems exists less and less in the corporate world as everything is replaced by accountants).

It means it shouldn't have been surprising for those who have paid attention. I actually work with someone who took it quite bad. I've been working with this person for 18 months and I've never seem them in bad mood. I feel for him but it's also hilarious :D

That would be pretty funny. I am just on the side of yep, this backlash was both warranted and predictable.

I have thought of blizzard as one of the laziest developers for years. They basically just made wow and took a long smoke break. Yeah some expansions and shit, but overwatch is the only 'new' thing they did in a long while.
