Oh really? I implore you to fucking read some of the WoW general or classic discussions, or head over to the D3 forums and see all the D3 hate from D2 fans that hate D3 and choose to constantly post and belittle those that do like D3, while constantly make up excuses as to why D3 sales were so good.
Here's a hint, WoW numbers are only good because of classic players and D3 inky sold well because of D2 players. It isn't projection on my part, it's simple observation of what others have been saying for years.
