There Are Ways…

Friday, August 13th, 2010

There are less selfish ways to commit suicide, than driving your bicycle head first into on coming traffic.  When you’re willing to do said stupidity because the rest of your entire life isn’t worth the 30 seconds it would have taken for the crossing lights to come on, it makes you look like someone who isn’t very satisfied with how her life turned out.

I’m just saying.

Blizzard continues pushing for Battle.net maximum annoyance

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

I found the intense pressuring they’ve been doing on World 0f Warcraft, to convert accounts to battle.net, very annoying.  Not least because battle.net has traditionally been a black hole of suck.  I suspected it was all part of a nefarious scheme on Blizz’s part, and their actions with Starcraft II have only re-inforced that opinion.

In the world Blizz envisions, I guess no one ever has a LAN party that doesn’t have a 1gbit connection to the internet, which is fucking stupid.    If you only have dial-up, like literally millions of gamers, you can’t have your friends over to play a game, even though everyone has a fully paid copy.  Yeah, that totally sounds like the grassroots growth that made the first Starcraft a success.  I sure as hell won’t buy a copy until someone has cracked that stupid part, which is probably before the game itself is even released.  Morons.
