Okay, ''now'' we can talk about Blizzard being the worst company in human history. I played nice when discussing Overwatch and Starcraft 2, but Diablo 3 is in no way a video game worth playing nice with. Remember this garbage?

Yeah, remember Blizzard being such useless, greedy trash that they released Diablo 3 with always-online DRM and ''one server''? I remember. I was there. I bought a new computer to play that game and everything, and then I couldn't even log in because Blizzard thought one server would be enough. These people also refuse to add stash space to Diablo 2 or more deck slots to Hearthstone because they're worried about server capacity. It's unreal how much they lie.

And then it got so much worse, but to understand how we need to go back in time a little to discuss the last great game Blizzard made -- Diablo 2. The game is so good that mere ''rumors'' of a remaster have people up in arms. To that I say those folks are gullible idiots (Warcraft 3 Reforged ''just happened'', people), but whatever. Diablo 2 is still played extensively '''TO DIS DAY''', and the game has its own economy over on d2jsp called "forum gold". A huge underground economy happened, and you guys know how well Blizzard handles news of anyone else making money instead of them. Just look at the Warcraft 3 Reforged EULA.

Anyway, Diablo 3 finally got up and running, and much to everyone's horror the item drops basically did not exist. Anywhere you go, same complaint. And why was that? Because Blizzard was butthurt over d2jsp, so in Diablo 3 they turned item drops way down and launched the game with a Real Money Auction House. It's okay that items don't hardly drop in-game. Just open up the wallet and go buy them in the auction house! Blizzard tried claiming this was an improved way to sell items that you yourself picked up, but everyone and their mother knew that the sellers in the auction house were all Blizzard smurfs, because again, ''items were not dropping in-game''. It was impossible for anyone to have all of the good items being sold in the auction house.

It all added up to arguably the worst launch in the history of video games, and it never got any better for Diablo 3. People can talk all they want about the game getting better once content was added, I don't care. That game is laughable trash, from a laughable trash can of a company, and people are on my side now thanks to the whole debacle with China. Don't worry, we'll get to it.

How do I know people are on my side? No one knows or cares about whatever Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward is. Is it an indie title? Is it a book? Is it an adventure? Is it a visual novel? No one knows, no one cares. All I know is it led Diablo 3 for two minutes, which is a wonderful allegory for Diablo 3's launch. I don't care what Diablo 3 did in the rest of the poll after those first two minutes, because they told a better story than the final 1,438 minutes ever could. The Blizzard hate is real, and my side will win.

By the way, do you guys not have phones?
