StarCraft II is Year's Biggest PC Game Launch [Aug 03, 2010, 11:06 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty sold more than a million copies in 24 hours and 1.5 million copies over the first 48 hours of availability, announces Blizzard. They say this makes the real-time strategy sequel the biggest PC game launch of the year, and that this sets a record "for fastest-selling strategy game of all time."
Prez is a fairly low key guy and you appear to be the one taking it personally in this and many other threads. Blizzard will survive attacks on their name without your fervent defense, don't worry.
Exactly. Especially when the people complaining, like myself, bought the game. I'd bet they'd love all of us to go right on complaining as long as we go right on buying their products at the same time. I think Blizzard is one of the precious few companies left that truly welcomes all kinds of feedback, including the negative kind. Maybe even especially the negative kind.
Honestly, only in some twisted, surreal alternate reality would a fan be bitched at for daring to complain that the sequel to their favorite RTS series of all times took too long when it took 12 years to arrive. Especially in light of the fact that Blizzard devs have themselves acknowledged their faults in this area when it was acknowledged that they just accept this as a tradeoff for keeping a small core team and also that they always hype their games too early.
"The assumption that animals are without rights, and the illusion that our treatment of them has no moral significance, is a positively outrageous example of Western crudity and barbarity. Universal compassion is the only guarantee of morality."
