if blizzard hates d2 they coukd shut the serevers down for WoW or something
Because they still have a simple obligation to the fanbase, namely keeping the servers more or less playable. It's unlikely that they will use a lot of their time to do much more than that.
Blizzard does not hate d2, that's one of the dumbest things that I've heard for a long time. At the moment, they have different interests and priorities. Why should Diablo be of primary concern to them if it brings in so little money, and chances of it bringing in more money are close to none?
There are millions of people that play WoW, if I'm correct. These people have not only bought the game, but also pay for it every single month that they want to play. Therefore Blizzard owes a far greater obligation towards them, as they are milking these people much more. If they did not keep updating the game, making new expansions and fixing bugs, people's interest in the game would decline and they would quit, meaning a much larger loss of income. All we Diablo players ever do/did is buy the cd-keys, then **** up Blizzard's servers with duping, glitching etc, basically being a damn nuisance.
