Don't hold your breath for wc reforged. Blizzard is notoriously anti "everything that isn't bnet"

Well, when i saw Microsoft buy AV i was really hoping to steam WC3:RF on steam seriously because they have a great relationship with valve/steam releasing games on here. im 100% sure Microsoft got the new COD on steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/1938090/Call_of_Duty_Modern_Warfare_II/

and i saw crash 4 on the way to..

hence why i wish to see WC3RF.

CoD and Crash aren't the same situation as actual Blizzard IPs.

Yeah I would not wait on Blizzard games being on Steam as they haven't before to my knowledge.

Activiosn games do indeed turn up from time to time. It really depends on what they view as wrothy of doing. Activision and Blizzard though being part of the same company do run separately in many ways.

It might change as and when MS buy them (which should be sometime next year in any case assuming it goes through).

BUt as we have zero games currently by Blizzard on here that should speak volumes for you.

Bethesda (also a Microsoft subsidiary since a short while ago) is scrapping their own launcher in favor of Steam. So there is indeed hope.

This is true, and I speak as a concurrent player of Warcraft, time to time player of Hearthstone and even one who just roams the Blizzard forums. You know the slight irony to Frog is that out of all of the game forums under Blizzards cloak, WoW's is ironically by far the most packed one with those that ask this same question above yet never get an awnser, I even saw a thread that ran for 10k+ posts before it died off (from one year to the next, imagine that!)

Just to be clear here, they are NOT a subsidiary yet. The deal hasn't gone through and likely won't be until next year.

Not being pednatic especially. just pointing out that they can't actually make such changes until this happens.

I am aware of that. I just didn't find it necessary to repeat what you said just a post ago. We're not on Reddit!

Fair enough - not having a go of course :)
