I haven't played any Blizzard games since the early 2000's, but I was really excited to pick up the new Diablo 2 remake and catch up on what many have said is a classic. Gaming has changed, it's brutally monetized, online play is still mean and abusive, and I've downloaded more files than played games as of late. And now these stories have come to light. I haven't done a deep dive into them, but enough reputable sources have reported that I can spare myself the negative feelings. What a lousy stain on the legacy of their games. I can't in good conscience support criminality that so flies in the face of decency. I know it's a drop in the bucket, but they won't be getting any money from me, no matter how much I want to play Diablo 2. Sometimes I wonder why I struggle to connect with gaming so much as an adult. I'm increasingly realizing that it's gaming that no longer has any interest connecting with me.
