All around, I hear that Diablo 3 is a huge disappointment. It sold well but it did so by namesake alone. If that game had been any other name and released by any other company, it would have failed.

That's what i've heard too....

and yet when I check my steam tab... what game are all my complaining friends playing?

Diablo 3.

The worst reaction to your game is apathy.

Passionate hatred means they care about the game deeply and want to see it better. Blizzard are very good at getting people invested in their products beyond the time that they play them (WoW and Starcraft especially)

hah, nice try EA marketer! 

Well, in that case people hate because they know EA can do better. Them, and the companies they have bought and killed off, have produced a large number of the classic PC games of all time.

Psvita is doing quite bad and people won't stop hating on it. I haven't played Diablo 3 (or any Diablo games), but the fact that the game sold so well in its first week suggests that it sold on name alone. The rest of the sales might have been positive feedback by some players or people who were curious about it etc. I'm sure there are many who actually loved it, but it seems that the majority didn't.

Same thing happened with FF XIII, though in opinion, if it was called anything else, it would have been praised endlessly by video gamers. As someone who had never played a ff game before XIII, i thought it was amazing.
