WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 (edited) Blizzard.com? These guys are going to highlight one of their games every day until the release of whatever is next... Kinda stupid but it does make a good sense of suspense. Edited May 13, 2007 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"

Pop Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 hey, you know where this thread would really work? The gaming forum. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
Hurlshort Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Wow, they have been pretty consistent with their releases...one every two years not counting expansions.
theslug Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Blizzard is a bunch of sell outs. Im glad there talent walked out on them, bunch of bastard scammers. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.
metadigital Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 hey, you know where this thread would really work? The gaming forum. Good idea. Blizzard is a bunch of sell outs. Im glad there talent walked out on them, bunch of bastard scammers. Who or what did they "sell out"? As far as I can tell Blizzard have produced very well finished games, from the standpoint of bugs as well as general artistic production, which have been popular successes. Not sure why you would be upset with any company that does that ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Big Bottom Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Yeah, screw Blizzard and their crappy habit of patching all their old games! The best flash game ever!
Gorgon Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I can't remember a blizzard game I liked. have they done anything other than warcraft and world of disneyland ? Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted May 14, 2007 Author Posted May 14, 2007 Starcraft, Diablo (that was nice...), Lost Vikings... I'd say its Starcraft Ghost, being resurected and everything.

Sand Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I hated Diablo. Wasn't fond of Starcraft and Warcraft. I hate MMOs. Blizzard has yet made a game I have liked.

Gorgon Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I don't like top down RTS as a rule, the kind with hundreds of little green selection markers milling around, build queues and buildings, but I thougth starcraft was good for it's time, Diablo was mindless repetition. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Lyric Suite Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Blizzard is a bunch of sell outs. Im glad there talent walked out on them, bunch of bastard scammers. If Guildwars and the upcoming Hellgate London are an indication of the kind of 'talent' they lost, then i'd say good riddance. Blizzard's downfall started with Diablo 2, when the company was still more or less intact. As for their new game, it's either Stacraft 2 or nothing, and they better get it right too.
Walsingham Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Good quality games, but stylistically not for me. At all. Bring me out in an unsightly rash. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
theslug Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 (edited) I thought Warcraft 3 TFT was amazing. I played it for an extremely long time, beta of roc up until a few months ago with a few months here and there where I quit. I played WoW beta, decent game but heavily unbalanced but it was beta so it was cool. I already put my thoughts on MMO's in another thread so I'll get to why I think they are sell outs and it is specifically the monthly $15 fee for continued content and servers. That adds up to a lot of money and they just never put out. For upwards of like 6 months the only content the player got was bug/balance issues and even then that didn't even address a lot of problems with the game and character classes. Yeah they released some new dungeons and areas but that was so much later, and then they released the expansion pack, 2 retarded races. It was just an excuse to milk as much money from the consumer even more.

theslug Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I think the Hero thing was just really hit or miss. I thought it was innovative and added depth to the game, where other people said it sucked. W/e thats cool, I think a lot of people just say that because they were bitter and got destroyed in a long string of games by some unfair hero or unit strategies. Which is kind of why I hated WoW. But there are counters in wc3 whereas WoW you had to reroll and lose all the hours you put into a class.

Pidesco Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I have no problem with the heroes. I didn't think they sucked, but they weren't particularly interesting, either. My problem with Warcraft 3 was that Starcraft was just plain better. More innovative, better balanced, with a better storyline. Starcraft was better in every way that mattered.

Volourn Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 "I think they are sell outs and it is specifically the monthly $15 fee for continued content and servers" How does this make them 'sell outs'? L0L DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

I might have to play Starcraft, as I thought Warcraft III: Chaos Throne Thinggy was pretty good. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

Dakar Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Starcraft was the greatest RTS ever hands down. As for WC3, I DESPISE the main game, but DotA is the greatest custom user map EVER. I found heroes stupid and unneeded in the normal game as it completely threw everything off. But using the heroes system in a bigger way with less micro-management but much more depth is just great.
