Is it me, or is Blizzard a really freaking good game designer? They make great games and seem to be really active with the community and care about what they want. When it comes to WoW, I really agree with a lot of their philosophies on how the game should work and feel. I'm not a Blizzard employee or anything, in case you're wondering. It's just that after playing Diablo 2 for most of my High School years, then WoW for almost two and now getting into Warcraft III, I have to say they really do go through a lot of effort to make some really damn good games.
I use to be a hardcore SquareEnix fan for years. I played Final Fantasy XI for 4 years and all SE did was let me down time and time again. I saw more advancement and "fixing" in my first year of WoW, than I did in 4 years of FFXI. Maybe what I'm comparing too might make me, I don't know... bias or something.
Anyone else out there feel the same? I wanted to post this on the official board, but I didn't want suckle thine teet too hard.
