Blizzard Entertainment spits on customers

Blizzard Entertainment are officially spiting on their customers, this i posted in the Technical forum on their site:

I usually play around 4 hours/day and i lose like 1 hour/day to constant damn DC's, i'm gonna start whining on unofficial forums and such just to get people to realize that the opinions of the players dont mean **** to these money-hungry beasts f this doesn't stop. Blizzard know very well that it's their patch that has messed it up, but they will not admit it because that would basicially mean that they would admit that they are NOT the almighty, perfect and extremely sucessful and wealthy company that they make themselves out to be.

Maybe the opinion from someone that doesn't know what you are talking about is worthless, but still, you might at least get more sympathy if you explained better :P

So this is WoW you are talking about? DC = desktop crash? Their latest patch hosed up the game for alot of people?

...What? DC? What patch? What game?

Crysis beta rules!

I second that!

I too am puzzled. What game? what patch? what planet?

This is why kids with ADD shouldn't be allowed near a computer...

Wait...patches are always 100% stable? Companies intentionally try to piss-off their customers because it is good for their bottom line?

take a deep breath

Oh come on guys, give him a break. Everybody knows that Blizzard is intentionally keeping him from his WoW fix. This is how Blizzard sees it:

1. Release buggy patch

2. Purposely **** off customer base

3. ...

4. PROFIT

You see?? Its so simple!!

The ironic part is that he doesn't realize that he's losing five hours a day because he's playing WoW and thinks he's actually accomplishing something while he's just wasting oxygen.

Because playing 5 hours of any game but WoW would be so much more productive, I mean right?

I suppose when you play Battlefield 2 you think you are actually controlling real soldiers and saving the world?

or maybe you are paying your rentby playing Bioshock and picking up dollars?

No...WoW offers the illusion of being productive which is why people keep playing even when they aren't having fun.

Other games don't disguise the fact that they aren't productive for the user, allowing the user to have fun and enjoy the GAME rather than become stressed and furious enough to create a random post on a random message board he just signed up for because "nobody else cares."

Your confusing the game as a whole with the end-game content (*retch*). WoW 1-70 is brilliant... WoW end-game is a complete failure. I knew when I wasn't having fun anymore, and then I quit.

I actually think that the guild/friend list keeps people playing past "fun" far more than any game mechanic they may have.

I'm willing to second this point. But, if you have played many other MMOs previously it isn't difficult to quit, especially WoW.

Yup i've quit SWG and WoW twice. Quit EQ after 3 stints, and tried Guild wars and EQII once. I almost felt like Cartman in that Southpark WoW episode (minus the bedpan). MMORPG's are very addicting. I'm so glad to have quit them so i can spend more productive time at the gym or other activities. The enticing expansion pack keep trying to snag me with their capitalizing tentacles but i resist :)
