When Diablo 3 was released last year on PC it sold 3.5 million copies in 24 hours. Just a few days later sales had risen to 6.5 million, making it the fastest selling PC game of all time. Now, with a PlayStation 3 and 4 release of this popular RPG dungeon-crawler from Blizzard recently announced, what exactly have console owners got to look forward to?
Microsoft has 'let Blizzard be Blizzard' following the acquisition of the veteran developer according to World of Warcraft's executive producer.
Diablo 4 storefront being a cash grabbing shitshow does unironically attest to that, kudos.
Okay i will be interested if they become old Blizzard but might as well be dead.
Shame most of the people that made Blizzard what they were, have already left a while ago.
Were you expecting Microsoft to hire everyone that had left Blizzard long before they purchased the company...
Microsoft has let the Blizzard company they purchased continue to be the Blizzard company they purchased.
Former Blizzard president Mike Ybarra recently suggested an interesting concept that has sparked a debate among gamers - the idea of being able to tip developers after completing a game.
If I had a 100% way to be sure that this money would go to a fund or a reserve dedicated only to the guys who develop the games, be them designers, artists, programmers and so on, I could think about it.
But we all know that this 'tip' would only end up in a publisher's CEO pocket to buy a new yacht, so, no, I ain't tipping anyone anytime soon on this industry
So they eventually don't pay their workers and depend on our tips to pay them like the case with waiters!
Is this a joke? How about the big wigs giving up some of their pay for their hard working developers.
Blizzard and NetEase have announced that Blizzard's games will return to mainland China under a new publishing agreement.
The same cr@p that us PC gamers got.
I continue to be confused about the PC gamers simultaneously saying that D3 was a crap game and being pissed it's heading to consoles.
i loved Diablo 3 and my wife and I had a blast playing it, i am not one of those people who play it 20 times over and over, but, we played through it once, about 30-40 hours of awesome co-op and then i played another 10-18 hours with my brother and was good with it
i am also totally happy its coming to consoles, wish xbox360/720 and wii u would get it too, its a great game, why not let everyone have fun
plus its more money for blizzard to spend on my favorite game ever created, starcraft 2, hope that comes to consoles too
people who don't want their games on other platforms are like those little pukes in pre-school who wouldn't share
i want everyone to have fun with awesome games!
Not pissed it is heading consoles, but the game was flawed with the drops and the implementation of the Auction House. I liked it for the most part, but after awhile you were forced to use the Auction house since the drops for good armor/weapons were cr@p.
