Thanks for the text summaries! Would have loved to watch the whole discussion, but no time to.I really appreciate Watcher - he has a great perspective and in general, I feel like the devs have been doing a much better job about being transparent and communicative about changes and why they're happening. It's definitely a good sign.
I wish Blizzard would distance themselves from this guy - a moniker like "Slootbag" gives off a poor first impression, and just seems childishly offensive.
Of course it needs challenge but it also needs to be playable by everyone and their uncle.The poop-storm that is zoom was a lame donkey coverup for their new rendering engine having issues after their tweeking.At least the engine didn't blow out like it did when they did that graphic update to diablo and they never did admit that they screwed up royally on that one.I see the same thing here but with a lot more arrogance. They forgot that the majority of the player base love the game in general and are more than happy as long as you don't piss in their cornflakes. The zoom was just that. This range thing and their other enhancement to force players to play their way may be an actual taco bell dump.I wonder if this qualifies as a tinfoil hat episode where they are trying to kill the game on purpose?
Gosh, anyone else despise twitches video player? Can we expect these on youtube?
