Is Diablo 3's release this summer going to seriously hurt our population?

I will bet you 50k pp on blue that it will be an overwhelming success.

We're talking about Blizzard, a company that has cancelled multiple titles (Starcraft: Ghost for the naysayers) in the past because it wasn't up to their standards. Hundreds of thousands of dollars spent on development only to be completely scrapped. A company that clears $1b annually, easy. They've got cash to burn and have no reason to release a shitty product.

I'll take that bet.

So according to you, World of Warcraft is a wonderful game? I think we have completely different standards for excellence.

He said 'successful' , not 'wonderful'...

While the second is subject to personal opinions, the first is not. Numbers don't lie. Between the Warcraft RTS series, Starcraft RTS series, Diablo and World of Warcraft - Blizzard has been a dominant force all over the gaming scene.

Even DoTA has a bigger funbase/playerbase than entire companies would dream/envy of having - right now.

Actually DotA's (paying/registered/active) fanbase is low compared to what Riot/League of Legends has.

I'm afraid your statement is rooted in ignorance, sir.

WoW success is similiar to McDonalds success. They both deliver a fast, convenient and cheap product which is fantastic for the instant satisfaction crowd. A sports analogy would be WoW = mini golf, EQ = real golf. I doubt any Blizzard game will deviate from that course.

Actually, Lorraine's statement is 100% true. There are definitely entire companies that would dream of having a following the size of DoTA's.

Herp derp.

I've noticed people who say "erp" tend to be simps.

Look up Riot/League of Legend's numbers.
You're welcome.

Blanket generalization anyone?

Turnabout is fair play.
