Worse still, they now get to keep less revenue from sales of their games because they've moved from battlenet to steam. Let the slow death spiral begin!

i find the idea that blizzard is "done for" hard to believe. even if they lost all the classic talent that made them an elite studio. the possibility of a Warcraft 4 (or Starcraft 3, or a real next-gen WoW, or a new Heros of the Storm...) is always there to be a break out hit.

And then add the cancellation of their only new game, mass layoffs, and the death of Diablo 4, which will end up being free to play anyway.

Absolute dead weight.
I will watch it later, for sure; thanks for the video.

On the one hand yes.

On the other hand, they're on Steam now, and I can't believe they won't come through with a guaranteed banger eventually. Warcraft 4 is out there just waiting to be made.
They have lost so much credibility. I mean, Look at Diablo 4; it took them + 5 years to come up with an unremarkable game that has been bettered by a small group of developers who made the last epoch with more features, innovation and all for 40 bucks.

The Blizzard we know or used to know instead is dead; it is replaced by a bunch of greedy bastards that feed off people's Nostoilga.

And it pains me to say all this; it truly does,

They were dead the second D2 remaster had queues to play a single player game that had no couch co-op.

Diablo 4 has lag in a single player game.

What the fuck were this studio even thinking with either of those scenarios?

Greedy bastards deserve to go under.

yes by far, it has an armoury, a loot filter, proper end-game systems, self found and a trading system, more classes and all future updates are free, all this for 40 quid.

We are getting close to season 4 and still no loot system from diablo 4, why is this. Basic systems that are being drip fed to us over the months, it is simply not good enough, we as consumers should be expecting better, a lot better.

Path of exile 2 beta launches in june, from what i have seen it absoulty makes a mockery of diablo 4.

I am seriously at the point where i don't think i am going to by the diablo 4 expansion, and mepy, the high cousil and act 3are some of my most favorite characters from diablo2.

No word of a lie, if you said this to me 10 years ago that i would consider not supporting a diablo product i would of called you a liar.

Do i hope diablo 4 gets better, i sure do, i want it to succeed, i was brought up on that game, but i also need be honest with myself, its just not the standard i expect from them.
