Diablo 2 truly was a masterpiece of its time..
Unfortunately, Blizzard hasn't produced something of that quality since The Burning Crusade.
I'm curious to see if their fans will forgive their recent faux pas's in exchange for the bait they chum the waters of BlizzCon with, or if the damage they did is too large to wash over with a few fan requested games.
Either way, I'm willing to bet the PR they pollute us with for the next few years is going to be so submissive and apologetic that even if gamers aren't angry with them anymore, they'll quit paying attention.
If Blizzard used to be a broadsword, this might have dulled them into a butter knife.
