Don't you guys have standards?

I take it this is not on gamepass then?

This will not teach ABK / Blizzard anything.... except load the games up with MTX and the current standards are fine.

Paul Tassi, who is loving the game, is trolling this announcement a bit…. He’s right tho.

Can't wait to play it once a few expansions are released. ARPGs are addictive but too time consuming.

No numbers. So lame

How can they have sales numbers when the official launch is today?

Microsoft already infecting Blizzard with spin and random stats instead of real numbers.

Good for Diablo. They need a win after 10 years.

The marketing campaign for this game has been everywhere. Old media, new media, TV, internet, social media you name it. They spent big money on the marketing campaign of this game. Big prime slots on TV at several channels.

It better do well. All they're saying here is that it got the best pre-order numbers of a Blizzard game ever.
