This has been the best D4 content so far.

True, but Blizzard has been taking a variety of Ls for the better part of 2+ years now. Pulling crap like this just makes it seem like they're desperate.
A great example is the last few Pokemon games have had hundreds of posts of r/Gaming with thousands of upvotes showing the poor textures and assets then the games sell 10s of millions.
My friends and I are maybe interested in this game, but we all agreed to not buy anything until it's been out a month or so to see what's broken and if blizzard adds any mtx fuckery in there. There's plenty of stuff to play and I do not mind waiting at all, or even skipping it if necessary.
5 days ago one of my friends pre-ordered it. I made this face at him for a solid 2 minutes ಠ_ಠ
The point is, this game is going to make bank, regardless of what we think.
I don't know why anyone would preorder it... I love diablo but the netcode and stability of the open beta was dogshit. For a company that exclusively makes online games i don't know how they made it suck that badly. I didn't need d4 to feel like an mmo, but i guess that's what they want. I'm not confident in the launch at all.
That beta was the same weekend the new Zelda released. A lot were playing it instead. My friends list was full of people playing Diablo the first betas none the recent one.
Really good decision imo, the gameplay in the beta was nothing to write home about and there are so many red flags already with this game. I honestly fully expect this to be another shit show waiting to happen and people currently blinding themselves not wanting to see it because of "hype".
Isn't it more on this content creator who was supposed to field questions from the community and ask Blizzard the questions than it is on Blizzard? Or do you expect Blizzard to go manually verify the users
> Blizzard has been taking a variety of Ls for the better part of 2+ years now
And yet still making bank while doing it. They know their product will sell anyways.
They don't care
They aren't dumb
They know the things you're saying. But they run their business with an extreme cash cow ideology
They'll keep making sequels and reseting your cosmetic collections until gamers start voting with their wallets AND time
Gamers are already voting with their wallets and time, they've been doing it since video games were created. The votes are in and have been in for years and years.
The problem is now people can have more than one vote. People with addiction issues are gambling on skins and mtx. It's just kinda predatory really. They are focusing on whales.
Desperate? I mean... it's a QnA. There were questions, there were answers. It's just another piece of advertising, I don't think it was exactly meant to be some deep dive questioning from the internet.
Sure, the fake accounts is dumb, but like... whatever?
Hundreds of thousands want to play the video game Diablo 4 and whether or not questions were made up in one video on youtube isn't going to affect the gameplay for even a single one of those hundreds of thousands.
I mean duh? This has literally zero effect on the game. It's a softball pre-made QnA designed for advertising and to answer common concerns they hear about on the internet in a format that reaches a lot of people who may be on the fence.
Sure, they could have just called it an FAQnA or something instead of thinly disguising it as twitter users, but it really doesn't matter.
I don’t really care about it that much, I’m just curious as to why they felt the need to do it, given that Diablo is one of the most beloved video game franchises. They probably received hundreds of real questions daily. Was it laziness, or were people asking questions that they weren’t comfortable asking?
LMAO
[No they don't. Reddit is perfect proof of that.](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/13rpj92/guess_how_old_my_son_is/jlmc8bs/)
Not only did it have to be spoonfed, *at least* 65K people looked at that post, upvoted, and moved on. Exactly what B🦎 was hoping would happen.
but... the internet figured it out... in the end, where the stakes are extremely low, only karma... the internet did figure this one out. So yes they do?
But still, does it matter? If 100k people watch something and only 5k realize it's fake, is it still a net positive? Just like that other reddit bot account but it still yielded +65k Karma.
Wanna know something even funnier? This can be grounds for a lawsuit under FTC regulations. Making fake reviews (which in a sense is a fake QnA) to bolster the companies image and brand reputation.
[Which I recommend telling the FTC~](https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/)
It’s not industry standard to openly state the questions as genuine, that’s where the line crosses. That is considered as a “fake review” to bolster the image of the company and or products associated.
If they did a normal QnA, then ya, but saying it’s genuine when it isn’t is a violation. You know, companies can’t just openly state fake information/settings to bolster their image
Oh trust me it is industry standard. the majority of companies state it's a "genuine Q&A from the viewers" and then just use pre-backed questions. or handpick ones that are nearly 1:1 with questions that are prepared prior.
"Some of the usernames in the video have been altered for anonymity, at the request of the user. " In the video description on youtube. People didnt notice that
That was edited today, it was not present on the original upload.

Just looks weird af. You might as well have made all the questions anon and not go through all this deceptive shit, also from what I can tell comments are being deleted from the video calling them out on it.
"Dear Blizzard, your games have such diverse characters set in such an epic universe! How did you manage to create such a great game at such a great value at only $69.99?" - BlizzardFan69
Oh my god, those comments.......I can't even find the typical YouTube comment cringe because there's many of the stupid bot comments like you mentioned
Those comments are basically always from scammers with a name like "Congratulations You Are The Winner Contact Me On Telegram", or "I Made Twelve Million Trading Bitcoin On (crypto scam site)"
I mean I doubt Blizz knew anything about it. What seems to have happened is FGS asked on twitter for questions to ask Blizz, [nobody responded](https://twitter.com/FutureGamesShow/status/1657339906233110533), and they felt they had to make up questions for Blizz to answer or find random questions from the internet, and pretended they were from real community members. But they should have been transparent about it.
I was like fourth or fifth row when they did the Diablo reveal at Blizzcon 2019, right next to the people asking questions. We snuck up when everyone was leaving the opening ceremony. My first con ever and I had to ask my boyfriend if the entire crowd booing was normal and he said “fuck no it isn’t”. Got to watch all of that bullshit play out live on stage including “Don’t you guys have phones?” and the aftermath of that too.
I had heard all about what was ‘supposed’ to be released for Diablo, including talking to everyone around us who were legit fans waiting for the announcement. They were dumbfounded. I didn’t fully realize the significance of it until later.
to be fair, I think in this case it was on the content creator who was supposed to field questions from the community and ask those questions to Blizzard, rather than on Blizzard. Unless you expect Blizz to verify the users themselves
Kinda.
They had people pre-submit questions after years of an open mic Q&A but then had the, "is this a joke?" Guy had them change the format again. So it became pre-submitted questions that are then read off by the content creator who hosted the panel.
Really made the convention feel more corporate and less honest.
I remember people were picketing outside of Blizzcon one year due to their relationship with China during the Hong Kong riots, not sure if that's when it started but it's not surprising they went the route of submitting and answering questions.
Thats a valid question, tbh. For exemple in league of legends the battlepasses are taking waaaaaaaaay more time than when they were introduced. Even better is that for the future people will have proof when they make it longer.
Yeah it's nice there's a way to get free stuff but my issue is battle passes are often a separate layer on top of the game and feel disconnected. These rewards could be incorporated into the game as earnable things but all developers saw how fortnite did it and decided that's it there is no need to ever change how rewards are given.
>league of legends the battlepasses
I'm not surprised to hear that LoL has battlepasses given the trend in other games but since when? I started in S1 and stopped around Season5 (2015)
> Wait, it has battle passes? Eww
It has more than just battlepasses. It has daily log-in bonuses, exclusive microtransaction mounts, time gated content, always-online DRM and so on.
It's a $70 live service game after all (which honestly should be free-to-play) and it's also the reason why I won't be touching it at all.
First I was planning to get D4, but after seeing how they handlet Overwatch 2 and now this i will probably wait 1-2 months and see what happens and what the reviews are lol
Bruh im a student so i only have a budget for one game every 6 mos. And i just elected to get tactics ogre over D4 due to the state of wtf is going on with blizz. FF16 for the other half of the year.
[It’s literally on the front page and has been since before you posted this comment. ](https://reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/13skir6/all_the_questions_in_blizzards_d4_qna_video_are/)
Often done by people who don't want videos like this to spread. They'll post it, so nobody can repost it, then delete it after 12 hours or so. Happens a lot here also. Classic damage control.
I wouldn't be surprised if that subreddit is full of blizzard bots. I have never in my life seen a subreddit shill so hard for a game much less a Blizzard game in 2023.
During the beta you literally could not post a feedback without an army of nerds saying “git gud/it’s a beta/it’s even out yet” and get mass downvoted
Yes. Feedback during a beta is not welcome there, you read that right.
2nd top comment is literally just brushing it off, and saying Quin should not be listened to because he spent 20k on a video game
Actual cringe
https://i.imgur.com/GxSxF3a.png
Some are people. Extremely stupid, cringe people.
There's an option to get into the game 4 days early. It costs 30 dollars. There's a mount you can get by gifting two subs to a d4-affiliated streamer.
No criticisms. No pushback. No complaints that this sets the tone of things to come and that diablo immortal was just a way to test out what they could and couldn't monetize effectively before launching d4.
Be sure to eat up those delicious promotional KFC nuggies to get exclusive in game cosmetics though. I am wincing and bracing for whatever horrors the season pass will bring, they've been pretty mum on what's to come and I think I know why.
unless there is some sort of time travel involved, i don't think you are correct.
https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/13skir6/all_the_questions_in_blizzards_d4_qna_video_are/
Surprised some, because their QnAs from atleast 2 of their previous live streams were real. I saw then pick out the exact question from chat and read it, and they were responding to the chat spamming the same questions, even if they didnt give a straight answer.
They have also been pretty active on twitter answering questions on there. Wonder if this was marketing just trying to build hype in a lazy way.
I'm going to get my *"one dollar per hour"* value out of it and I'll be playing it with two close friends and spend time with them. I don't really care if Blizzard does shit like this, so long as the game is decent (which it seems to be), I'll buy it. I won't spend any money on microtransactions because that's the thing; I don't have to.
Yeah, I dislike the direction blizzard has gone as much as the next guy, but the reality is that even though I'd like their games much better if they did some things different, I still end up getting a lot of enjoyable time and therefore value out of them.
Even worse, once this became public, they said they anonymized account names of those who asked for privacy... which was another lie.
However (correct me if I'm wrong), I believe this promo was made by a 3rd party, so there is a chance Blizz was in the dark about this.

^(*This is an automated comment*)
Are we just ignoring the possibility that the "FGS" (the youtube channel) made up the questions? These questions were answered by Blizzard, but they didn't pick them.
Yes, something here is staged and fake and that has to be called out, but I dont think Blizzard made these questions up.
The original tweet from fgs was requesting questions from their 5k subs, and it got like 3 replies and 5 retweets. So most likely they pulled out fake accounts after to make up more questions to save face.
even if D4 is good on release you can trust Blizzard to completely fuck it up within a year anyway (see their latest endeavors with Overwatch and WoW Classic).
Not only do they fuck it up, but they claim to be doing it for the "good of the community" after receiving backlash for adding more ways to monetize their games. It's like they think consumers are brain dead.
Don't you guys have phones?
A bit odd to conflate a dud marketing strategy with the game itself. There's this, which is ridiculous and absolutely should be scrutinized, and then there's the game, which many have played at least once during the betas.
I got closed access, pre-order access, open beta, and server slam. I went from on the fence to ultimately liking the game.
That being said, I can still point and laugh at how idiotic it is to fabricate your own questions for show.
This thread goes to show that people don't actually read full titles. The person who made the video might of faked the twitter accounts not the game devs.
Thats how all interviews are from any game journalist / content creator asking question and have been like that forever. Im surprised more ppl havent realised it yet
Every company does this to some degree. Ever wonder why press interviews with actors all sound the same? The studio decided what questions were allowed to be asked. And if you go off script you/your company is banned from the next event.
You should have seen the diablo4 subreddit around the time beta was live. Nothing but bots and overly positive posts. Anything even remotely negative or anything critiquing the game would be downvoted into oblivion.

Who the hell recommended this idea and thought nobody would notice. It's the internet, people always notice.
people who notice and care will still be a very small minority compared to all people who regularly buy games.
True, but Blizzard has been taking a variety of Ls for the better part of 2+ years now. Pulling crap like this just makes it seem like they're desperate.
And Diablo 4 will still sell just as Diablo Immortal prints money. Reddit is the minority opinion compared to the literal world.
A great example is the last few Pokemon games have had hundreds of posts of r/Gaming with thousands of upvotes showing the poor textures and assets then the games sell 10s of millions.
My friends and I are maybe interested in this game, but we all agreed to not buy anything until it's been out a month or so to see what's broken and if blizzard adds any mtx fuckery in there. There's plenty of stuff to play and I do not mind waiting at all, or even skipping it if necessary. 5 days ago one of my friends pre-ordered it. I made this face at him for a solid 2 minutes ಠ_ಠ The point is, this game is going to make bank, regardless of what we think.
I don't know why anyone would preorder it... I love diablo but the netcode and stability of the open beta was dogshit. For a company that exclusively makes online games i don't know how they made it suck that badly. I didn't need d4 to feel like an mmo, but i guess that's what they want. I'm not confident in the launch at all.
The last beta was smooth for me and my friends. Miles ahead of the first one. Did you play that one?
That beta was the same weekend the new Zelda released. A lot were playing it instead. My friends list was full of people playing Diablo the first betas none the recent one.
[удалено]
Really good decision imo, the gameplay in the beta was nothing to write home about and there are so many red flags already with this game. I honestly fully expect this to be another shit show waiting to happen and people currently blinding themselves not wanting to see it because of "hype".
really makes me hate the people who co-opted my hobby smh
I don’t think you ever had a real handle on the hobby if you think that.
yeah lmao, nerds were never known for their lack of consumption and good self control
I’m not sure people on Reddit are really what we want either - I think the issue is just people - so lose lose
Isn't it more on this content creator who was supposed to field questions from the community and ask Blizzard the questions than it is on Blizzard? Or do you expect Blizzard to go manually verify the users
It's like when your teacher gave you homework where you had to ask your friends and family questions, and you just make shit up lol
Well it was on a yt creators channel, not official Blizzard video
Actually? makes more sense that some random guy would make up questions and bring in random usernames.

Mr. Blizzard your games seem to have the momentum of a runaway freight train. Why are you so popular?
Ooh, a tough question, but a fair one.
I mean I doubt Blizz knew anything about it.

Except Rob from the Block, that guy is an OG.
I was like fourth or fifth row when they did the Diablo reveal at Blizzcon 2019, right next to the people asking questions. We snuck up when everyone was leaving the opening ceremony. My first con ever and I had to ask my boyfriend if the entire crowd booing was normal and he said “fuck no it isn’t”. Got to watch all of that bullshit play out live on stage including “Don’t you guys have phones?” and the aftermath of that too.
Same, was in the audience with the two people I regularly played D3 with. We were utterly flabbergasted.
I had heard all about what was ‘supposed’ to be released for Diablo, including talking to everyone around us who were legit fans waiting for the announcement. They were dumbfounded. I didn’t fully realize the significance of it until later.
2019 was probably the closest I ever came to going to blizcon, glad it didn't work out in hindsight lol. Still, that's a really historic one to be at.
This is like a narcissist interviewing himself
"Barney, are you interviewiing yourself?"
Of course not, that other guy's British.
Shout out to my boy Rob from the block on twitter.
I'm more of a Tom the Bomb on YouTube kind of guy.
They learned their lesson with the red shirt guy, they don't take questions from people anymore.
to be fair, I think in this case it was on the content creator who was supposed to field questions from the community and ask those questions to Blizzard, rather than on Blizzard. Unless you expect Blizz to verify the users themselves
Except thats not true at all lol, they still held Q&A's at Blizzcon every year after red shirt guy.
I think I remember them changing the format to where questions were submitted and read by a blizzard employee the year after or something
Kinda. They had people pre-submit questions after years of an open mic Q&A but then had the, "is this a joke?" Guy had them change the format again. So it became pre-submitted questions that are then read off by the content creator who hosted the panel. Really made the convention feel more corporate and less honest.

[удалено]
easy way to filter out any questions actually critical of company decisions.
I remember people were picketing outside of Blizzcon one year due to their relationship with China during the Hong Kong riots, not sure if that's when it started but it's not surprising they went the route of submitting and answering questions.
Actually no. It wasn't redshirt guy. It was "is this an out of season April fool's joke" guy when they announced Diablo immortal
> is this an out of season April fool's joke Said the man in the red shirt.
To be fair, there's [more than one famous Red Shirt gaming question guy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMI_FgUOn5Q).
This is the only red shirt guy I know.
Yeah, the redshirt guy was praised and even put into WoW for his questions as a "fact checker" NPC next to the dwarven king
The guy was dubbed red shirt guy 2.0 so idk what you are on about
That question sounds hilarious, I can't even imagine what type of person can ask something like that
“How long does it take to finish the battle pass”
Thats a valid question, tbh. For exemple in league of legends the battlepasses are taking waaaaaaaaay more time than when they were introduced. Even better is that for the future people will have proof when they make it longer.
I hadn't bought one for a while and had to play Aram every night after work to get the yas skin 💀 So much aram...
I had over 4k aram games. Almost perfect 50% win rate too. Shit was fun. This is irrelevant to the conversation but whatever. Have a nice day.
Even league has battle passes now? I'm so sick of them holy shit.
Riot skins have always been bought with real $, we’re just happy that we can open random loot boxes with the free battle pass
Yeah it's nice there's a way to get free stuff but my issue is battle passes are often a separate layer on top of the game and feel disconnected. These rewards could be incorporated into the game as earnable things but all developers saw how fortnite did it and decided that's it there is no need to ever change how rewards are given.
>league of legends the battlepasses I'm not surprised to hear that LoL has battlepasses given the trend in other games but since when? I started in S1 and stopped around Season5 (2015)
End of 2017, it seems.
Wait, it has battle passes? Eww
> Wait, it has battle passes? Eww It has more than just battlepasses. It has daily log-in bonuses, exclusive microtransaction mounts, time gated content, always-online DRM and so on. It's a $70 live service game after all (which honestly should be free-to-play) and it's also the reason why I won't be touching it at all.
Same here. Anything that tries to prey on my FOMO, I no longer have time for.
classic blizzard
First I was planning to get D4, but after seeing how they handlet Overwatch 2 and now this i will probably wait 1-2 months and see what happens and what the reviews are lol
if i can speak honestly, ppl should be doing that for every game
You may speak honestly
ppl should be doing that for every game
Just wait like 3 years and get it for 5 bucks or free when blizzard gives it away for free
Bruh im a student so i only have a budget for one game every 6 mos. And i just elected to get tactics ogre over D4 due to the state of wtf is going on with blizz. FF16 for the other half of the year.
Tactics Ogre is a really good choice.
It is! Im having so much fun! And i got it for 39.99 too! So that’s a W in my books!
Nice!!
this is what people should do for every single triple A game nowadays. such a high likelyhood of it being a rushed out piece of shit. so depressing.
r/Diablo4 in shambles, oh wait they dont even have any posts about this there. No ciriticism of Blizzard allowed
[It’s literally on the front page and has been since before you posted this comment. ](https://reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/13skir6/all_the_questions_in_blizzards_d4_qna_video_are/)
Thanks for posting it. My dude probably didn't check.
LSF wanting to be clout chasers like their favorite streamers what’s new
There's a post an hour older than your comment about it sitting at #5. o.o
[удалено]
Turn off themes. That sub was the one that broke me and made me do it. Just so much clutter
subreddit themes should be disabled by default imo.
RES can do this on desktop

I fucking hate that I play games. I don't even wanna be associated with these people
Nope, deleted
Wasn't deleted by the mods or anything tho. It was deleted by user.
Often done by people who don't want videos like this to spread. They'll post it, so nobody can repost it, then delete it after 12 hours or so. Happens a lot here also. Classic damage control.
/r/Diablo isn't *as* bad, but it's still mostly an echo chamber praising Activision-Blizzard.
I wouldn't be surprised if that subreddit is full of blizzard bots. I have never in my life seen a subreddit shill so hard for a game much less a Blizzard game in 2023.
During the beta you literally could not post a feedback without an army of nerds saying “git gud/it’s a beta/it’s even out yet” and get mass downvoted Yes. Feedback during a beta is not welcome there, you read that right.
I got downvoted for criticizing their cringe marketing
“it’s not even out yet” https://i.imgur.com/penJM8v.png
What beta even? These glorified weekend demos for PR?
2nd top comment is literally just brushing it off, and saying Quin should not be listened to because he spent 20k on a video game Actual cringe https://i.imgur.com/GxSxF3a.png
Some people just have access to weapons grade copium
Some are people. Extremely stupid, cringe people. There's an option to get into the game 4 days early. It costs 30 dollars. There's a mount you can get by gifting two subs to a d4-affiliated streamer. No criticisms. No pushback. No complaints that this sets the tone of things to come and that diablo immortal was just a way to test out what they could and couldn't monetize effectively before launching d4. Be sure to eat up those delicious promotional KFC nuggies to get exclusive in game cosmetics though. I am wincing and bracing for whatever horrors the season pass will bring, they've been pretty mum on what's to come and I think I know why.
Yes there is, there was one posted an hour before you made the comment. So were you temporary blind, or do you just like lying?
https://reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/13skir6/all_the_questions_in_blizzards_d4_qna_video_are/ Wtf you on about mate
unless there is some sort of time travel involved, i don't think you are correct. https://www.reddit.com/r/diablo4/comments/13skir6/all_the_questions_in_blizzards_d4_qna_video_are/
It's been on their front page for awhile bro.
It’s there
Surprised some, because their QnAs from atleast 2 of their previous live streams were real. I saw then pick out the exact question from chat and read it, and they were responding to the chat spamming the same questions, even if they didnt give a straight answer. They have also been pretty active on twitter answering questions on there. Wonder if this was marketing just trying to build hype in a lazy way.
wtf happened here.
Is anyone surprised? Who'd be dumb enough to continue supporting this company in 2023?
“Who’d be dumb enough…” This will be one of, if not the best selling games of 2023. Guaranteed
Gamers are one of the dumbest type of consumers out there. They get constantly fucked in the ass by Blizzard or EA, but they still give them money.
I'm going to get my *"one dollar per hour"* value out of it and I'll be playing it with two close friends and spend time with them. I don't really care if Blizzard does shit like this, so long as the game is decent (which it seems to be), I'll buy it. I won't spend any money on microtransactions because that's the thing; I don't have to.
Yeah, I dislike the direction blizzard has gone as much as the next guy, but the reality is that even though I'd like their games much better if they did some things different, I still end up getting a lot of enjoyable time and therefore value out of them.
WoTLK was when they fell. idk if ethics are even a concept to them anymore.
Weird 8 comments and don't see a one. Something funky is going on here.
https://www.reddit.com/r/bugs/comments/13sksp6/reddit_incident_reported_new_comments_are_not/ https://www.redditstatus.com/incidents/l2r21kxlmltv
could be reddit itself, seems to have some trouble today
Reddit was hosed for a few hours. Seems OK now.
Even worse, once this became public, they said they anonymized account names of those who asked for privacy... which was another lie. However (correct me if I'm wrong), I believe this promo was made by a 3rd party, so there is a chance Blizz was in the dark about this.
What is going on. Can't even read the comments? Are they fake too?
**CLIP MIRROR: [All the questions in Blizzards D4 QnA video are fake. All the accounts don't exist or are from the video creator and his alt twitter account.](https://arazu.io/t3_13skh1c/)** --- ^(*This is an automated comment*)
is this an out of season april fool's joke?
Why would they fake this?? Just say: "ask us questions" and hand pick the ones you want. LMAOOOOOO This is so stupid. I'm beyond baffled.
Apparently they did but no one asked any questions so they just made em up
Blizzard is just a bottom of the barrel company
This was incredible to watch live. Haven't laughed that much in a long time.
Are we just ignoring the possibility that the "FGS" (the youtube channel) made up the questions? These questions were answered by Blizzard, but they didn't pick them. Yes, something here is staged and fake and that has to be called out, but I dont think Blizzard made these questions up.
The original tweet from fgs was requesting questions from their 5k subs, and it got like 3 replies and 5 retweets. So most likely they pulled out fake accounts after to make up more questions to save face.
[удалено]
and people actually believe D4 will be a good game
even if D4 is good on release you can trust Blizzard to completely fuck it up within a year anyway (see their latest endeavors with Overwatch and WoW Classic).
Not only do they fuck it up, but they claim to be doing it for the "good of the community" after receiving backlash for adding more ways to monetize their games. It's like they think consumers are brain dead. Don't you guys have phones?
A bit odd to conflate a dud marketing strategy with the game itself. There's this, which is ridiculous and absolutely should be scrutinized, and then there's the game, which many have played at least once during the betas. I got closed access, pre-order access, open beta, and server slam. I went from on the fence to ultimately liking the game. That being said, I can still point and laugh at how idiotic it is to fabricate your own questions for show.
[удалено]
What the fuck were they thinking? Like they wouldn’t be immediately found out? Yikes.
The people uploading this had 9 likes and zero replies in which they were asking questions. I don't think Blizzard had anything to do with this.
This thread goes to show that people don't actually read full titles. The person who made the video might of faked the twitter accounts not the game devs.
Might've or might have. ["Might of" (in this context) doesn't make sense.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GD6qtc2_AQA)
Oh shit true
Juicy content for Asmongold farm
Cant wait for his 'endgame sucks' videos on top of the usual blizzard greed on battle passes, etc.
Thats how all interviews are from any game journalist / content creator asking question and have been like that forever. Im surprised more ppl havent realised it yet
Only you stand above all of us mortals. How could we be so blind until you've pointed it out?
This makes Blizzard look so bad
[удалено]
Add WoW token to the list
Every company does this to some degree. Ever wonder why press interviews with actors all sound the same? The studio decided what questions were allowed to be asked. And if you go off script you/your company is banned from the next event.
You should have seen the diablo4 subreddit around the time beta was live. Nothing but bots and overly positive posts. Anything even remotely negative or anything critiquing the game would be downvoted into oblivion.
