efaardvark Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Blizzard has apparently (re)released the original, 1996 version of Diablo. Via GOG of all places. For anyone not familiar with GOG (Good Old Games), they're a place to (legally) purchase unrestricted games. None of the games on GOG have DRM or require "activation" or online connection to a mothership or any of that sort of nonsense to play. You buy it, you download it, and you play it. "You bought it, you own it" is their motto. Anyone who's familiar with Blizzard, on the other hand, knows they don't do non-DRM. (Diablo is, currently, the only Blizzard title on GOG.) Ok, so 1996 was a while ago. This is no doubt a last-gasp attempt to get some money from the title. Still, to me it seems quite odd to see a Blizzard title on GOG.. https://www.gog.com/game/diablo (also https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/03/original-diablo-is-now-on-sale-for-10-drm-free-but-not-on-blizzards-app/ ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 And now Warcraft 1 & 2 are apparently available as well. Still seems bizarre to see Blizzard titles there. Not that I'm complaining.. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/03/jobs-done-warcraft-1-2-now-for-sale-on-gog-15-combined/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
