True and correct, but what do you expect? Blizzard lost a lot of the solid game design talent they had in the past.
Cinematics and graphics might look better due to tech improvements, but the creative aspect (the underlying design) for D4 is going to suck.
We all know how the Angry Birds game was frowned upon for promoting masterbation in young girls through its rapid dual finger motion on the cell-phone screen.
Similarly, Auction House in D3 promoted gambling behavior and laid forth the path towards greediness and selfishness where players gamed on gaining on others rather than playing the real game.
With this in mind, does blizzard want to repeat the mistakes of the past and create an addictive product? Or learn from its mistakes and make a game no-one wants to play?
The answer is obvious!
