I assume they're going to eventually bring over their whole catalogue.
I held off on buying D4 and after OW2 came to Steam I figured D4 would sooner or later, so I'll probably pick it up when it inevitably goes on sale.
I'm not rebuying their older games though. Not unless they sell them for $10 a pop or less.
well everyone on battle net already bought it.
makes sense to bring it on another market later to get rest of the leftovers.
leftovers are steam peons who don't buy anything if it's not on steam, so giving 30% of money to valve from those scrap sales is sacrifice that has to be made.
it's a shortsighted move, it means short term profit but in the long term they're going to get shat on in reviews and players won't go all the way to bnet for future releases knowing they can just wait for it on steam.
>it means short term profit but in the long term they're going to get shat on in reviews and players won't go all the way to bnet for future releases knowing they can just wait for it on steam
You still have to log into bnet to play it on Steam. Same for EA games, same for Ubishit games. That's why I never purchased Mirror's Edge 2 or Dead Space 3. I would but the israelites want me to use their launcher even while on Steam, frick that.
>Blizzard has destroyed itself.
you're late. Blizzard hasn't been "Blizzard" since Vanilla WoW. >blizzard games on steam
Yea, dingus, they're owned my microsoft. Where else are they going to put it, the EGS? LMAO
>Yea, dingus, they're owned my microsoft. Where else are they going to put it, the EGS? LMAO
If they were making shit tons of money they wouldn't put it on steam at all.
It was more like in Bc when they started retconning lore for gameplay reasons and streamlining gameplay. The final nail in the coffin was when they released the TGC raid and nerfed Ulduar so all the raid content was overly accessible for normies.
Games are only good when they force people to get gud or leave.
Am I the only one who sees this as opportunity to finally have a solid steam charts data for this game. Can't wait for the honeymoon phase to be over! I'm pretty sure majority of Steam players will be raging after honeymoon.
Remember when people who never played arpgs ignored the fact that D4 has shit itemization and endgame and will die very fast? Even funnier when people had free access to beta and Blizzard showed endgame video in the middle of it
>Buying a credit card swiping simulator to make Bobby another billion $
KEK
Go suck Bobby's dick. I bet you do it for free and even give him a few hundred bucks on top of his billions.
I will never buy any game where the CEO makes more money than necessary. Period. I don't care if it's the "best game ever", if the CEO makes more than $100 million in a year, I wouldn't play this garbage if you would pay me.
no. you literally cannot have anything fun like that in d4
they nerfed the game within 24 hours of launch because players were having too much fun with Barb and Rogue
Have Blizzard lost all hope of their brand? Them releasing games to Steam just shows they have totally given up the typical "Blizzard premium brand" they've been going with for decades.
Now it's on Steam like all other crap.
Why do the fricking anons believe that Ganker or Ganker itself represents "gamers", why do they believe that they are relevant or influence the decisions of companies?
Ganker is fricking shit that represents nothing, we are the minority that only spends time complaining and posting tranies.
>yes as we all know when a botched game comes out and it milks the last bit of fandom that subsequent releases won't be harmed >after all, after Mass Effect 3, Andromeda did amazing
Oh wait
Game is legit dead. The only thing you might be right on is that they made their money already because it sold well.
As far as ingame right now? Its a ghost town. To the point where people have to solo world bosses because nobody is playing.
Call me when they port Diablo 2.
Call me when there's offline single player and LAN play.
>Narrator: he never got that phone call
won't happen. Blizzard doesn't give a frick about diablo fans and doesn't want to tempt another DOTA situation with Project D2
We already have offline mode for Single player.
Up to 30 days.
Yeah, no.

TPBP.
Only good Blizzard game.
>it's real
do you think in a parallel time line battlenet would have brought in third party games and became the dominant platform?
well everyone on battle net already bought it.

You think it's their choice? Microsoft is putting them up to it so regulators have less ammo to use against them.
>it means short term profit but in the long term they're going to get shat on in reviews and players won't go all the way to bnet for future releases knowing they can just wait for it on steam

Call me when you don't need the battnet clent installed
Not OP but I would call you rn then. OW2 doesn't need Battlenet either.
You DO need an account though.
Blizzard is done since half the people on this board were born and somehow it's still alive. You need a new meme.

going to demand a refund on battlenet and rebuy it on steam.

>always online
>shit campaign
Don’t buy it. Let blizzard go bankrupt
maybe they should have hired devs who like playing vidya?
>Diablo 4
every blizzard game is just an advertisement for other blizzard games
Literally the only ones excited for this are people who will be review bombing it day 1
>playing Diablo 4
I'll pass. I don't really like MMOs.
frick i want the steam version frick battle.net
put D2R on steam instead
and vanilla wc3
>this thread again
Alright, alright
What killed it?
>Diablo 4 has to take 4 hours to try and entice you to come back
>POE does this in a 1 minute league trailer
Remember when people who never played arpgs ignored the fact that D4 has shit itemization and endgame and will die very fast? Even funnier when people had free access to beta and Blizzard showed endgame video in the middle of it
I can't imagine playing D4 willingly when it's probably one of the worst ARPGs out right now.

after their recent season 2 change list and their idea of what fixing the ui means it's easy to see how completely moronic they are
Is Diablo 4 more fun than Path of Chinkshit?
no. you literally cannot have anything fun like that in d4
they nerfed the game within 24 hours of launch because players were having too much fun with Barb and Rogue
has any other company destroyed the minds of million of gamers as hard as blizzard?
Bethesda's getting close.
Have Blizzard lost all hope of their brand? Them releasing games to Steam just shows they have totally given up the typical "Blizzard premium brand" they've been going with for decades.
Now it's on Steam like all other crap.
Perhaps they should put some good games to Steam like classic Warcraft 3.
hey it worked for Overwa-
uh oh
brood war when!?!?!?
>still need b.net shit to play it
frick off already
WoW on Steam when?
>Blizzard
ohh, you mean the American company that shills communism?
if you still have Battle.net installed you're basically the human equivalent of ringworm.
That's Steam tho
csgo isn't even playable without installing the latest aimbot
china is more capitalist than america
>Blizzard has destroyed itself.
yes. we know. it's been 15 years
You guys keep saying that, and that bullshit company continues. Keep buying their garbage games and their expansions and shit.
Blizzard destroyed themselves years ago - it is just taking forever for the money to run out.
>Zero threads
Why do the fricking anons believe that Ganker or Ganker itself represents "gamers", why do they believe that they are relevant or influence the decisions of companies?

lol look this moron think the 150 actual users and like 300+ bots arent representative of actual gaming
lmao laugh at this dumb homie lmao
Go into Google Trends, search Diablo 4/Diablo IV, worldwide, last 90 days, report the results back.
homosexual, they already did their homework, now they are going for fools like you and
so they can buy it on steam.
You're 15 years old?, you fricking homosexual, do your parents still buy your games? or do you pirate them?,
>pajeety mad
i aint buyin D4 homie im just laughin at your dumb ass
>yes as we all know when a botched game comes out and it milks the last bit of fandom that subsequent releases won't be harmed
>after all, after Mass Effect 3, Andromeda did amazing
Oh wait
I'm not going to buy it, so what homework is that? Come back with the trends as I asked.
Game is legit dead. The only thing you might be right on is that they made their money already because it sold well.
As far as ingame right now? Its a ghost town. To the point where people have to solo world bosses because nobody is playing.
i got the game 2 weeks ago and im level 51 and never seen a player outside of a town
I'm more interested in POE2 and Grim Dawn's xpac
Blizzard turned Diablo in to a phone game lmao
They really learned nothing from Overwatch 2 on Steam, huh? Are they really trying to crash the Blizzard brand with no survivors?
>MS wins case against FTC
>suddenly Activision-Blizzard games are made available on Steam
uh FTC bros, wasn't the merger supposed to hurt us gamers?
soulless game
I'm still buying it.
LETS GOOOOOO
