Blizzcon 2010, color me unimpressed

[Multibocks]

One day shorter and no major announcement? I thought they were going to announce their new MMO in development or maybe some game changes that made me , instead they rehashed a bunch of crap I already knew. Ugh.

edit: dont get me wrong, Im excited for cataclysm... just underwhelmed on the blizzcon compared to past ones.

Yea it seemed like there wasn't a buch of new announcements. They would hint at something but it would always end up as a jest.

About the only thing that stuck out with me is being able to preorder/download Cata from Blizz before Dec. 7th. Outside of that, I agree, it has seemed a bit lack luster.

It's not a day shorter just a couple hours shorter...

They had more people, a bigger budget, and more space.


Yet the quality was no where near the previous blizzcons. I was disappointed but the arena tournement was fucking amazing.

The last five hours of the
Final round was
Rediculous.

They did announce the next gen MMO, World of Jersey Shorecraft...

I think it was a weird time for blizzard, they have a game that everyone knows a ton about thats all but finished, and they recently released another game, so they didn't want to overshadow those games with anything else. It was disappointing, but not unexpected. They said they wouldn't even announce the name of the next gen MMO until 2012...

Oh, and watching SC2 or WC3 tournament is WAY more interesting than watching Wow tournament.... the wow tournament just showcased how ridiculous arena pvp is, with everyone getting healed to full in a split second, and nothing much happening.

I was also underwhelmed. I was expecting either the new MMO or a release date for something but the biggest thing was a half-assed Diablo 3 beta giveaway for some unspecified date.

Ahh well. Got to meet some people anyway. If anyone else is still around we could set up a meeting in the hilton lobby or something

Dunno man, if you werent watching the grand finals when Sopah switched to a priest -- you missed out. It was epic, each and every battle.

We stayed for the final matches, didn't leave blizz con till almost 11:20 P.M.

I guess I didn't stick around long enough on the wow tourney, but the part I saw was uneventful to say the least. I'll have to check out the online stream later.
