What are you doing after the RealID mess?

I "just" got Diablo. I know, I know. Never played it. So they had the old Battle chest with 1 & 2 & 2 exp. Guess I will give that a whirl. I guess I could look in the never played game pile, I am thinking Baldur's Gate is in there and marrowind series. By then November......sounds good to me

Play Starcraft 2, wait, ... single player game that needs to be always online* ... oh, thats Ubisoft all over again, well, ummm, keep playing WoW until they implement mandatory RealID (I'm okay with it at the moment) or implement WoW in-game advertising. The new Battle.NET Terms of Service with regards to Massive's in game advertising have got my shackles riled. If I have to pay for a subscription and see ads as well, you can bet, I'll be doing neither.

* Don't like this, sometimes I go where there isn't an internet connection and I'd like to be able to play the game I just bought.

I dont know really, I just cant be bothered to log into WoW now. My accounts run out soon, and I doubt I'll resub, not for now atleast.

This "old" Blizzard fanboi isnt a fanboi anymore, thats for sure.....

I don't believe they will be so stupid to continue with this realID. With all the negative press they have 2 choices imo:

- persist with the realID and face a bunch of law suits, eternal QQ from their userbase and face the beginning of the end
- stop this crap and use it to their advantage: 'we listen to our userbase and value their input ... blablabla' and come up with another solution

Gonna keep playing the game as long as I enjoy it, and as long as my account name ain't visible and I can pay for the game with cash/paypal (i.e. buy gamecards anonymously).

That doesn't mean that I'm sitting back and do nothing. I voice my opinion against the realID wherever/whenever I can. Because I believe if blizzard succeeds it's the beginning of a new era and many more companies/websites copy it. It will change the way we use the internet.

That is the part that actually bothers me the most. It's going to get tougher and tougher to play games without being forced to connect to company servers, and it isn't just Blizzard. A lot of console games will automatically connect to company servers instead of asking you if you want to connect. Which means that there might be a time when most games won't work at all if you can't connect to the internet. Bleh.

Same thing I was doing before it... Having fun

Though, depending on when Civ 5 and Cata come out, it's going to be hard to figure out what to play.
