Was anyone actually expecting Heart of the Swarm this year? I will admit that I expected Diablo this year, and am wholeheartedly disappointed now.

Meh. When they are ready, they are ready...

Diablo was never announced for a 2011 release date, so I don't see why you are all so disappointed...

I did hope... So... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well... Also... Its good that blizzard take their time with the games. A huge concern when activision and blizzard joined forces was that blizzard would be forced to rush things out the window.

Blizzard is the one known for taking FOREVER to make their games. I would be worried if the merger resulted in games being pushed out faster than usual.

Ok.. so you hate Activision because of how blizzard has been running their "When its done" business mentality since before Activision was even in the picture?

This. I didn't expect any of them for this year. At most, Diablo III beta has some chances to arrive aty late 2011, but so far that's all.

this is nothing new, blizzard likes to announce their games years in advance to create hype. but by the same token they have kept showing stuff up and it makes you wonder how big the game will be or if they restarted the game from scratch since a lot of people were not happy with what they were seeing in some parts of the game...

Hmm, I am not pleased by these news. But their games are "done when it's done."They dont rush with their games and for that I am thankful. Another quote would be "A delayed game is eventually good, a bad game is bad forever".

The more time they spend on polishing the games the better, I want Diablo 3 to be as good as it can possibly be, same goes with Heart of the Swarm.

Blizzard releases their game when "it's ready." That has been their motto. Hence, why you will never see an official release date until they're absolutely sure and it's nearing their estimated release window. You still expect a 2011 release window, so don't get your hopes down so soon. As for Heart of the Swarm, I was never expecting it to release in 2011. I'll be lucky to see it release in 2012 for that matter. Diablo 3.... in 2011, I am hoping but knowing that Blizzard are perfectionists, I wont be getting my hopes up.

"Don't panic! Contrary to reports coming out of today's Activision earnings report call, Blizzard has not ruled out a 2011 release for Diablo III. "We have not announced a release date for Diablo III," says Ryan Arbogast of Blizzard PR. What they meant was that if there is no release in 2011, there will be two releases in 2012.So there's still nothing to circle on our calendars, but it's not yet time to abandon hope."

Don't know man... 90% convinced that we ain't gonna see DIII in 2011.

Not another damn year.. can't wait no more.. I want my fix now..

The technique of not having disappointment of delays is simply to forget Blizzard or their games. Don't follow any news, videos, blogs,etc. Works wonders for me when SC2 came out. It's sort of "Wow SC2 is going to be released in a couple of days? That was fast."

True. That very same approach worked for me last year. I was probably one of few people that knew it was coming out that month. I was like WHAT?!

Publshers are blamed if a game is delayed... and publishers get blamed when the game gets released too soon and doesn't work properly. There's just no winning here.
