Gnostic: They are not Blizzard. They are Activision.
Blizzard died a long time ago.
That's like saying Cartoon network is Warner Bros. Animation because both channels are owned by Time Warner
blotunga: Most MMOs are crappy grindfests. I guess they are fine for people with lots of spare time, but for me they hold no value. I like story driven games, where I feel that things that I do affect the world around me, not games where I go out and kill the same monsters 1000000 a times just because I need to get one more piece of armor. So yay for The Witcher 3 and nay for Wow, Diablo 3 etc.
Yes yes we get this rhetoric from core gamers before.
Even though most old school RPGs have best token storylines. I mean Pool of Radiance was not anything profound.
And WOW is known for having great lore when uts at its best.
