Haven’t since overwatch 1 came out
of course not.
Boycotting Blizzard is all about their shitty behavior as a company since long before the games they made turned bad too.
Nope.
Would be foolish not to go patient on it after Reforged. After D2R, I’m not completely writing it off, though.
No.
The Blizzard that made good games died many years ago.
The Diablo II remake was EXCELLENT
The rest of their games are trash now
Blizzard didn’t make the Diablo II remake, they outsourced it. Thank god.
It’s like the ship of theseus, but shit. The shit of theseus.
shit of feceus. it was right there, man…
hahaha excellent
FYI, I posted your comment above on [email protected], I hope you don’t mind!
Aw thanks.
If you’re still asking that question, you aren’t paying attention. Overwatch 2, Diablo Immortal, Warcraft III: Reforged. Do you need 10 more years of shitty games to prove this to you?
There is no such thing as Blizzard. They were bought out by Activision, which was bought out by Microsoft.
From the comments, the remake of Diablo II was decent
They outsource the remake.
Remake already means they failed.
All they did was get rid of the free at&t servers, upgrade a couple 2d sprites and put it in a launcher with a new price tag.It was PERFECT.
AFAIK it was done by Blizzard North, the same team that actually worked on D2 back then (when Blizzard was more like Blizzard). At least partly. Correct me if I’m wrong (I might easily be) but it is at least not a 100% match with regular Blizzard.
Developed by Vicarious Visions, a recent Activision Blizzard acquisition.
And I thought it was an excellent product (although I stopped playing before they started making larger changes in patches).
I’ve been playing Diablo 4 and loving it.
No, I’ve been actively boycotting them for many years by now.
I broke my own rule and actually preordered something – Diablo 4. Huge mistake.
Well, that’s on you, really. :D
Two huge mistakes.
Why pre-order something digital? I never understood that.
It’s not the Blizzard that used to make games we loved anymore. It’s just a name now, and behind that a corporation focused on maximum profit exclusively.
Lol, lmao, no.
I don’t really expect anything good coming from them. To me the likes of Blizzard, Ubi, Bioware, Bethesda, EA etc are shareholder-driven companies, that stopped innovating a long time ago and now only produce and regurgitate the absolute bare minimum slop.
I have been pleasantly surprised on occasion, like for ubi’s Anno 1800, or blizzard’s diablo 2 remake, but they’re few and far between.
No
Signing that one.
I don’t think trust is at issue here. If the game sucks, don’t buy it! There’s millions of other games to play.
There is reason to hope Blizzard will turn around. Bobby Kotick is gone. Microsoft owns the company now. Say what you will about Windows but Microsoft tends to take pretty good care of the gaming franchises they own. I think a lot of AoE fans are pretty happy with how that’s going. I could be wrong though?
Halo.
The Warcraft III Reforged shitshow was definitely something to behold
The most amazing part was the claim that the in-game soundtrack was reencoded as lossless audio.
I looked at the new audio as a spectrograph and compared it to the original MP3s. Not only were they the same level of compression as the originals, they were the same exact graphs. The same files, renamed from .mp3 to .flac.
That’s some proper gaslighting!
