Despite all the belly aching I appreciate them putting this on. It was clear this was going to be a cut-back version, so the lighter than normal Blizzcon content isn't surprising. And from a wow standpoint this being so soon after the Shadowlands launch wasn't likely to have any huge announcements.
This honestly looks like garbage, why are they even bothering?
"Shit, what should we put into the Strategy channel? Maybe apologize for Reforged?"
"Nah, just show someone drawing Tracer's ass, that should be enough."
So based on the schedule, this company is now just WoW and a long shot at making Diablo 4 anything worthwhile? Plus some courtesy service for some other products that are mildly profitable for them still.
Where are new announcements, new IP or anything fresh? In 2 years this company gonna be just keeping WoW operational with ocassional expansion cash grabs. How the mighty have fallen...
I love the strategy panel, lol. This year overall seems like a miss.
RIP no cosplay this year. I guess I won't see the 9001th Jaina and gender-bended Arthas cosplay this year. Oh well....
Do you guys understand they put all good stuff in the opening ceremony? They have NEVER labelled panels exciting stuff, always behind the scenes and such. And why would they have a panel for hots, just to talk about one new hero or map? Not worth it.

it's an 11 year old game, you're going to have to wait until OW2 // Diablo 4 finish the hype train before you see any new Starcraft news.
yeah its weird that they even bother, though its cool they do it. They dont NEED to.
That said - Theres not really to go by here. Fanservice for wow audience and some tease for D4 fans. OW2 might be fun to watch? Maaaybe?
Blizzard has been saying for quite some time that they are eagerly working on new IPs and all that. Doubt we will see anything new from them at all. At most its current Blizzard games on other platforms. Beyond that, nothing.
Let's hope it goes well for everyone. I know I seen articles about people unimpressed with the Superbowl and the set up. Not quite sure what they going to do here.
I'm hoping for some positive news for upcoming changes in the future patch. Small hope for an announcement of more customizations. Tree mount and when we receive it will be hopefully announced. I think that is some positive news for sure. Free community mount for all. Not sure what else to expect for World of Warcraft, but that's usually the one I really pay attention to.
I use to pay more attention to Diablo. I think they might give a release date for Diablo immortal? That feels long overdue. I heard rumors of a Warcraft mobile game but no release date on immortal yet. So we will see how that goes...
Hopefully everyone manages to have a good time regardless of what is in store for the future of Blizzard. Blizzcon might be a bit late and not held in the traditional way but at least we still managed to receive one and everyone has access to it.
