Eh... a few years ago I would have agreed with you but based on their recent releases and the kinds of statements their designers make I get the distinct impression that whatever magic Blizzard had that allowed them to make games like Warcraft 1/2/3/Frozen Throne, WoW (Vanilla and BC), Broodwar, and Diablo 1/2 has faded. Most of the original key people responsible for those games are no longer there and Blizz seems to be favoring a blander mass market approach.
