Another Blizzard game is coming to Steam. I cannot wait until WoW is available so I do not need to use the battle.net client.

Oh, look. I'm alone in saying I didn't buy it before, not buying it on Steam, either. Go suck it, Dibalo IV.

I'm with you! Blizzard has been nothing but disrespectful to the Diablo franchise, original devs and players. Not to mention, buying an online-only game is basically renting it. I'd rather just replay the masterpiece that is Diablo 2, which they will never match.

I'm so totally with you, buddy. Nice to find peeps on here who know about the Diablo.

Yeah it's on my recommendations and all I can think is "why?"

I have to buy it again? Lmao, no.

Every freaking little indie game can give you an extra Steam key but Blizzard can't? The game was expensive enough already, what the fuck do we even pay for? To be just another cow to be further milked?

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Pretty much. Pay 70 bucks, no variation in gameplay or enemies, enjoy and restart each season.

Nah. Diablo 3 kind of sucked. I'm pretty sure blizzard has more abuse internally than we've heard of. They don't get my money.

(I say this, but it was free or like $2 I might crack. We'll see.)

I feel like buy it for $2 would be better than taking it for free. Had a horrible waiter once, and we decided that tipping then $0.02 was more of a fuck you than not tipping them at all
