Having only one company that has pissed them off in the past be the only one who is allowed to broadcast their game in korea would be pretty dumb from a business perspective. | ||

However it is expected that negotiations for a Starcraft 2 pro league are going to pick up with Morhaime's visit to Korea. Industry representatives are predicting that there is a high possibility of a Starcraft 2 league starting as the first season of pro league ends and season 2 begins. Anyway it was bound to happen | ||

Enough said. Forums is a necessity for any fucking MMO game, lets get that out of the way. It's a necessary expense. Community polls are cute, but it doesn't cost them anything. If I offered them $100,000.00 to neglect the poll results, they'd do it. They "sponsor" events, in the form of giving GOM a contract and collecting money. They don't "sponsor" events like Dr. Pepper sponsors MLG. Blizzcon was canceled (was that this year?), but normally it's the worlds best marketing toy, and it earns them money. We wait years for SC2 and Diablo 3 because a finished product sells more copies. They don't care about you, stop pretending they're Jesus, Inc. They care about money. It's not fucking shocking, they are a capitalist business. They're supposed to care about money. | ||
