Their games are very polished and cater to the casual broader audience, that's what makes Blizzard 'so special'.

Actually they cater to everyone, having both a highly intuitive single player campaign and a complex multiplayer mode which requires extensive knowledge and practice.

So I would say, their games are very polished and cater to a wide range of demographics.

Something similar can be said about Nintendo. Is it a coincidence that they're two of the most successful companies in gaming? I don't think so.

 

well, you have surprisingly forget to mention that from the PSX to the PS2 time,

most of the "gamers of these time" didn't play the Ninty games released on the N64+GC

also, the Ninty come back is mostly du to Wiisport/Wiifit and has nothing to do with their core franchise from Mario to Kid Icarus (lol).

Blizzard =/= Ninty, really ...

"Most" of the gamers of any given period never played any given game (Blizzard or not), so that doesn't really change my point.

 

nah, I do not agree

Blizzard are the most maintstream AND hardcore AND respected AND successfull PC developpers since years

Ninty has been completely bashed for years until they came back with the Wii

During these years, they have been nothing but a joke for most of the gamers.

that is pretty different from Blizzrd story
