Diablo: Immortal

[miyamotomusashi]

Mysterious uptick in sales since Nov 2nd...

Indeed. It’s everywhere. I’m of two minds of it really. I don’t care for Blizzard these days but this particular issue I think was way overblown by knee-jerk SJW (it’s an idealogy that has infected our times) reactionists. IMO the only people that have a right to be upset by this are the people who paid to attend Blizzcon. Everyone else is unaffected in reality, it isn’t like this is going to somehow affect their precious D4 development, the blubbering morons.

The worst mistake Blizz made was announcing it as basically the BIG announcement to a bunch of PC fanatics. Dumb move on their part but otherwise not world-ending.

Buuut… bad for Blizz (even tho I’m sure they’ll survive the blowout), good for Crate I suppose. This whole internet mob mentality thing we got going on these days is fascinating. It was hilarious during the Paid Mod scandal, it’s still hilarious here.

Quoting from another thread.

Do you know how many copies D3 sold? Yes, that many. So there are plenty of people disappointed.

Do you know how many companies went bankrupt in the past? Interplay, Telltale etc Whats wrong with wanting Blizzard to go down or become more humble?

If you watch this you ll find out they moved alot of their devs to work on mobile platform. Blizzard is kinda dead. WoW Classic is a disappointment, top 3 devs from HS left etc.

I dont know about mob mentality. I didnt care about scandals involving bethesda or pewdiepie, but obhoy Ill dislike blizzard immortal every time theyll reupload the trailer/remove dislikes.

Dunno if I am grumpy yet or not but Im 40 years old and I was witness when Blackthorne, Lost Vikings or Diablo 1 were released.
Before Blizzcon i told some ppl i will love if there will be bad news about diablo and some ppl will boo them there. I ve been replied it will never happen because ppl can go to blizzcon with their pets and blizzard would kidnapp the animals and ppl will still be fanbois. Guess its not rly like that.
