Respectful AAA titles are a dying industry, just look at Blizzard

in gamedev •  6 years ago 

First, read The problem with gaming right now by @ddrfr33k. Then carry on.


There is no Blizzard

It's just Activision. Blizzard was awesome, but it's gone. Blizzard North is the good old Blizzard who deserves respect. Is Activision even trying (image source)? Nah, more like failing.

Activison knows shit about Blizzard games, hence the Diablo 3 fiasco, the Starcraft I remake, the hardcore competitive Starcraft II going coop/casual/f2p shithole, Warcraft III getting a HD remake with no Warcraft 4 really planned, Diablo II probably getting a remake, remake, remake, hd, hd, remake, hd.

Activision doesn't know shit about the franchies Blizzard had, they just want to milk the fat cow until it's dead. That's what Diablo, Warcraft and Starcraft are now. Nothing but dying money makers.

I wrote a post about this last month. A steemian commented on my post how I was being childish. I gave him a lecture. I'm not wrong for wanting my beloved franchised to be treated with respect so I can enjoy it. If Activision won't do it, noone else will! Anyone who'd try would only get sued.


These guys are important to the growth of #gaming and steemit itself

Yeah, you're not wrong. Go look up the new CEO that Activision put in Mike Morhaime's place. Check out what projects he was involved in and the companies he helmed.

You're not going to like the future...

More like the present. :(

More like both...

Holy hell you are not wrong. I waited fucking /years/ for Diablo 3 to be released and when it was: 1. absolutely required an internet connection - 2. On initial release the imagery of that game could not have been any further away. They trashed it.

When I saw a screenshot from D3 for the first time, I knew it wasn't really Diablo. I was so disappointed.
