Ok. My feelings are still mixed over Blizzard as a company. At first they were the great champions trying to revitalize PC gaming as a whole. Then they fired the team that gave us Diablo II and eventually merged forces with Activision (a company that, for me, has consistently proven that it really is all about the money). This leaves me truly shaky about giving a crap about the corporate giant that Blizzard has become.
That being said, it appears that Blizzcon 2012 will not come to be (official statement). Claiming that they feel, as a company, they wouldn’t have time to truly give its fans the convention they deserve. Reasons are connected to the games slated for release this year. All focus has been turned to these in an attempt to make them something Blizzard would declare “release-worthy”. Despite my issues with Blizzard that still persist I am looking forward to Diablo III and hope that this hiatus from face time with the fans will actually help with the upcoming game releases being a little smoother.
