I expected more liberal use of the word 'fuck' in this post.

I haven't played LotV personally, but based on what games I've seen these seem like valid points.

Don't hate the player, hate the game

I can't read nina's mind but as a fan of Starcraft, when I complain or criticise about SC2 it's because I WANT to enjoy it and I WANT SC2 to be a good successor to BW, or even a better, to be better than BW. I have no intention of wanting to play an old game that is unpopular if I can enjoy a newer and more popular game equally or even more.

I think this is the same for many people, including nina. I don't enjoy complaining at all or being perceived as an elitist, and I daresay that some of us (like nina) actually care about Starcraft more than the new comers. Why else would she spend all that time to write that?

LOTV is going to be the most disappointing piece of software Blizzard has ever produced.

Making changes according to what people are whining to and what would be 'cool' never leads to anything good.
Pleasing everyone makes things bad for everyone in return.

That's why Broodwar was good.
It didn't care about the whiners.
It didn't care if a unit or ability was cool enough.

Shit product marketing....

i agree with this, lotv will be a half rate mix of sc2 and bw that won't excel on either side... at least wings of liberty had some character.

I disagree with you and would go mostly with the "whiny bitches" answer. The specific points of mistreatment you mention are popular to whine about, but are they such a big deal?

- no LAN: does anyone really care anymore? It's not killing tourneys anymore and for individual players it's pointless, because you need internet to play ladder anyway, and ladder is all that matters for serious players like you, right?

- own nothing: that's actually pretty bullshit and I agree it should be changed, but it is a bullshit of the whole industry, stupidly allowed by laws and governments. Blizzard would be silly if they didn't go this way and as they are a publicly traded company, someone would probably go to jail if they didn't milk people this way.

- no say: that's not a problem, that is FUCKING AWESOME. The fact that Blizzard resists the urge to allow whiny bitches to steer their game is their greatest achievement. I bet that if they would listen to people, you would hate the game even more.

Overall, the whole idea that the game "needs fixing" is just a product of whine bitches' need to find something to whiny bitch about and doesn't really exist outside of some highly circklejerking communities (and their associated whiny bitchy following who would however jump on any hatetrain offered to them).

I am actually not even mad with all the misguided posts on TL on the "fixing" of the game. Just go on, argue, debate, make up solutions to made up problems. We are going to enjoy the game meanwhile regardless (unless you infiltrate LR threads, that would lower the enjoyment a little - but you all hate the game, so why would you even go there?)


I apologize that everyone else isn't as smart as you are and that as consumers, we have expectations. We should just accept what our corporate overlords give us.
