Forums - Gaming Discussion - bioware vs blizzard

As someone who's been a fan of Blizzard since the original Warcraft, I have to say they don't excite me as much anymore. I now prefer the presentation of the stories in Bioware games over Blizzard's. Although it's been a while since I played anything in the Diablo line, I don't recall it having a very engrossing storyline. Please, correct me if I'm wrong!

Also, I'm not a fan of World of Warcraft. I've been MMO'd out after all these years. I just want to play an intriguing single player storyline on my time off. Although I have the utmost respect for Blizzard, I currently prefer Bioware's library. I loved Mass Effect's ending sequence. Of course, these opinions are only my own.

Blizzard of course, I started out with SC and migrated to Diable and Warcraft :D Playing Diablo 2 since announcement of D3



Blizzard because Starcraft tops even Bioware's fine games.

Actually Blizzard was around much earlier than Starcraft. Also Diablo and Warcraft predate Starcraft. Starcraft is the newest franchise they came out with so far.

are there still alot of ppl playing diablo 2 online ? I'm thinking about installing and playing again since Titan Quest not filling my hack/slash needs.

OT : Blizzard for me too Warcraft (not WOW), Starcraft, and Diablo series takes 3 of my all time favorite game spots alone.

I reinstalled the game Sunday and less than 10 days after a ladder wipe there were over 1000 characters over level 80 on USWest Battlenet..
