Thats the problem. Blizzard has been shit for years.
Blizzard was (still is?) Activision for a number of years as well, so that didn't help. There is much more to blame and I can't even begin to pretend like I know all of it, though.
My own complaint is similar though. When "profit at all costs" takes over, and knowing how to make a quality game is lost, there is usually little hope left.
Welcome to Capitalism
The people that made blizzard are all gone, there's several newer studios that haven't released much of anything yet. Frostgiant, warchief gaming, dreamhaven, imagendary studios are all offshoots of former blizzard employees.
Although Metzen is back, Blizzard will never be the Blizzard of old. They are just too big now. I am very curious to see what Morheim will bring to the table though.
