NAYRT but maybe this is a good reason not to get your tie your whole identity up in massive brands owned by unscrupulous corporations in the fucking first place

[(Anonymous)]

Well, I don't think anybody should do that, period. But it's also possible to be a fan of a franchise without necessarily tying up your whole identity to it.

But, consider the audience at Blizzcon. Those are going to be the die-hard fans. Casual fans wouldn't go so far as to pay for tickets, flights, hotels, to go there. So there was definitely a disconnect between company and audience, and there's also a disconnect to assume the people at Blizzcon and the outraged nolifers are the average fan.

nayrt

a lot of the fans considered blizzard to be fairly scrupulous with regard to their output though - they've cancelled entire titles virtually at the point of completion before now (titan and sc:ghost come immediately to mind) because they weren't good enough

so to a lot of them the betrayal is not that blizzard have been unscrupulous, but that they have lost their scruples in recent years (particularly since the activision merger) and this is just a manifestation of that

of course, your point still stands but fans gonna fan i guess

Anon from above

I think that's part of it too. For example, Diablo III and the real money auction house was terrible until it was removed. But at least, players could credit Blizzard with acknowledging it was bad and choosing to remove it.

I can see why, to some, this feels like they're going right back to how it was.
