I heard somewhere before that Blizzard is trying to get wow players to transition into SC2. Considering WoW makes more money, that would be a bad business decision. Why do you guys think they'd try to do that? And have you seen blizzard actively trying to get players over? Only thing I can think of is you guys start playing sc2, and then go back to cataclysm when it comes out. And then buy future sc2 expansions while continuing to play wow. | ||

I don't think they're trying to create complete converts. They want WoW players to enjoy SC2 enough to buy it and play it without enjoying it so much that they cancel subscriptions. | ||

I've been Gladiator since season 2. You think Two is my only character? After playing that long? I have toons on Blackrock and Tich. How many times have you been Gladiator? 0? Gladiator isn't even a hard title to achieve. | ||

Three times not that it matters, "Gladiator isn't even a hard title to achieve." though your hostility speaks volumes. | ||

It's never a bad business decision to get an existing customer to buy another product or service you offer. Blizzard does that and that's why they do so well financially. "The game will be released on July 27th and as a reminder, people who order the Collector's Edition of the game will be rewarded with the Mini-Thor Companion Pet." Seem like it to me if they are offering pets for people that buy it and vice versa if you purchase wow. The entire point of bnet 2.0 has been to create a single platform for all of the games and services they offer so people can cross game chat, leave comments on facebook and twitter, etc in any of their games. Well yeah they are hoping to woo people over to wow when the expansion is ready. Nobody ever really quits wow. Sure they'd love for people to buy sc2 expansions and people will. | ||

It's gonna be really effin' epic. 2. It's a blizzard game, and a gamer of blizzard generally likes their other games. | ||

Every game is if you want to be good at it 4 hours a day cause of arenas/raids... Nearly every one of you spend more time playing SC2 Don't get me wrong i love SC2.Quiting wow save money? 15$ a month. If you spend one day evening in wow and dont go to cinema or .... its the same amount of money I can tell you that playing wow save money.You cannot forget the social aspect of the game. I personaly know every guild member of our guild. We are having several guild meetings every year. Wow is amazing but you cannot compare it with an e-sport. But as some of you have pointed the fact rely on yourself is much better than rely on others. I am playing wow and planing to switch to SC2. I will probably spend more time plaing sc2 than i was loged in WOW. | ||

why always those antagonism against wow players? Either you play it or you don't play it. I wouldn't blame you for one of those. I have been playing wow since release and currently in a pve raid guild which is trying to get the last 3 heroic boss kills in ICC (Putrizide, Sindragosa and Lichking). I have to say that due to the lag of new content I played much less wow and was laddering in the SC2 beta. When SC2 goes live I will most likely play more SC2 than wow, but I will still attend my raid dates in wow and when Cataclysm comes out lately this year or next year I might play more wow then. But I will still play both games...for sure...they are both blizzard games and they are both great...and with enough practice and skill you can be good in both of them. Ok...in wow you need a decent raid gear (hero T10 and other 277er items and a good raid guild) but you also need skill...good timings...fast reactions and so on...like in SC2. In SC2 you might need good training partners and a lot of games 'till you can mess with the really good players...and like in wow you need a sense for good timings (well timed attacks)...you need fast reactions and you need a plan for your game (tactics and strategy). To conclude this long post (sorry for that^^) I have to say that I think playing a lot of SC2 the last time made me even a little bit better in wow (i dont know....perhaps it's bullshit)...but trying to maintain a high APM in SC2 made me sometimes klick faster and that kind of stuff in wow....i don't know. *gg* So cheerio to all those wow and sc2 fans out there. GL HF! ;D | ||
