The recent outrage against blizzard is not what this blog is about. I will only say that my anger is about the same as Savior and go.go being in the matchmaking scandal. What I would like to talk about is who I feel really sorry for. Two groups of people, die hard fans of BW and employees of blizzard who worked on Starcraft from the beginning. To not have the sequel live up to the first game is depressing, but since th game is not released yet, that is all I will say. But now think about the majority of blizzard workers who have been in statcraft for years. Hell even the voice actor for zeratul died, it's been so long, and I for one am sad old kerrigan will not be here. Anyway, all those other programers and developers were just trying to do their jobs and the top brass is fucking them over. They want to give a game true to the series that we would enjoy. But now I'm sure the people looking over them have changed their goals. Imagine working on a series for this long, then having your ideas changed, released to the public and then having it bashed. That's shit, total shit. That simply fuels my rage against the people who are at the top changing Starcraft from what we all love. Please keep mind that most of the employees are generally not responsible for the overarching actions of a CEO or other program managers. I still have hopes for sc2, but I have feelings that are disappointing me.

While we don't know the exact situation at Blizzard, this is true in any industry. Oftentimes it doesn't matter what the average employee wants for the product, the guys up top call the shots and it's their job to get in line.

For all we know, Frank Pearce's interview went so poorly because he hated the answers he had to give.

Well if its any consolation, the employees are hopefully being paid pretty well and they do have a job in this economy.
