Dear Blizzard

Posted on by

Dear Blizzard Entertainment,

It’s been well over a year since I ventured around in Azeroth. It was sometime not long after The Burning Crusade was released that my wife and I closed our WoW accounts. In fact, I don’t think I completed more than a dozen quest in the Outlands. That said, I’m willing to come back and give it another try, for a price.

I am willing to reactivate both of my WoW accounts, provided you send me a beta invite for WoW: Wrath of the Lich King. It’s that simple.

But, we both know I’ll not be getting a beta invite. And therefore, my accounts shall remain forever frozen. To be honest, it’s probably for the best. It took me far to long to kick the addiction the first time.

Kindest Regards,

Diablo II 1.12a Patch

Posted on by

With the recent Diablo III announcement, Blizzard is trying to stir up the Diablo community once again. They’ve wiped clean the Diablo II ladder, and a new race has begun for level 99. It’s cool to see a game that’s over 8 years old still holding the interest in players.

Additionally, patch 1.12a was released on Monday which allows players to play the game without the need to have the CD in the disk drive. In addition to the patch, you’ll need to copy the ‘.MPQ’ files to your hard drive.

You can obtain the patch by logging into Battle.net or from Blizzard’s support page.

Diablo III

Posted on by

The opening ceremony for Blizzard’s WWI is now over. The big announcement was as expected, and as I posted earlier, Diablo III. Got to see a bit of it watching the live stream, but it kept cutting out on me, so I missed a lot. :(

Check out WoWInsider, as I’m sure they’ll keep posting news and other information from the event. I’d also expect to see either diablo3.com to go live over the next few days…

If you haven’t seen it already, the splash screen that Blizzard has been teasing us with over the last several days has also been updated. “And the heavens shall tremble.” I am very excited for this game, and hope it’s not to far away from a release.

And don’t forget to Digg the release!

Blizzard Entertainment has started their own podcast. Each episode of BlizzCast will feature interviews with Blizzard developers and staff. In the first episode they interview Samwise Didier, the Art Director and concept artist. Samwise is the guy behind popular Blizzard elements like the Pandaren, Fel Orcs, Dark Templars, Zerglings, and others. No word on how often the podcast will be released.
