Re:Don't care - Blizzard blew it! (Score 1)

I certainly agree with your comments. Personally, I downloaded a "trial" of SC2 and played it for an hour but I just didn't like what I saw. I was expecting a similar game to SC1, only updated in graphics and better AI, but Blizzard put in a login (which the "trial" version doesn't show which makes the hacked game better than the original), between games sceenes that I seriously dislike, no LAN and especially no offline play. I wont get together with my buddies to play SC2 and rely on a single Internet connection that may break down. Goodbye to that weekend. And that is the only multiplayer setup I want. I do not want to play against random strangers and I do not want Blizzard to know when I am playing SC2. I like the original Starcraft as well and still play it (even though I have access to the hacked SC2). I may pick it up in some years, but I honestly do not expect to. And I'll most likely also stay away from Diablo 3 for the same reason (played Diablo 2 a lot). I do however play WoW but in nature, it is a different type of game, requiring interaction with others to experience all the content.
