    if you work at a game company and they have releases, you should expect to work over the holidays. not too much to ask. and if you dont want your workers working, dont schedule game releases around this time.

    Or, not-which, more importantly, is what Blizz may have been thinking.

    no offense to America's who celebrate but it is outrageous to delay a game due to a holiday. more people can PLAY during holidays cause of spare time.
    Outrageous? Seriously? Delaying a video game for a holiday is something that should cause an outrage?

    I hope you're being dramatic on purpose.

    These people work at a video game company. They don't provide an essential service. The world will not skip one beat if they take time of. They are exactly the people who SHOULD have holidays off.

    From what I hear the hours in that industry are atrocious as it is. Let's just wait a week for our damn wing.

    you won't die without your hearthstone. grow up and act like an adult about it. demanding employees work on holidays for a non essential service is not only selfish it's spelled out in the eula that you acknowledge the service may not be available 24/7 and that blizzard can change release dates on a whim.
    r.i.p. alleria. 1997-2017. blizzard ruined alleria forever. blizz assassinated alleria's character and appearance.
    i will never forgive you for this blizzard.
