Hi,
Sarcasm aside, nice analysis. But there's about a billion casual players who just want to gun and run for every one that wants to think. Blizzard knows that, that's who they're targeting -- and succeeding pretty darn well. Remember, Diablo was not a Blizzard product. It was pretty well along when Blizzard bought Condor. That's why, when I really feel like a challenge, I still crank up CD (as recently as two weeks ago). When I want to goof off with a beer and nuts game, it's D2. And, I'm ashamed to admit, I play more D2 than CD. Just like, on my PDA, I play a lot more Sudoku than chess. Laziness is addictive.
