Dude, what is it to you? Just play your "superior" pc version and let others get their "shitty" port. That's company's problem if they will face troubles along the way, not yours.
Also, yes, it will happen, eventually.

(And, no, I'm going to play D3 on PC)

yep, a read some about this, but I am not sure to understand correctly, if U buy D3 CE and then register with battle.net with wow, u get 4 month of playing for free, but nothing about mount ??

or how do u understant of this ?? (from faq) I am little confused..

What if I purchase the Diablo III Collector's Edition?
If you decide to purchase the Diablo III Collector's Edition when it's available, and then choose to add your Collector's Edition license key to the Battle.net account associated with your existing World of Warcraft Annual Pass promotion, you will receive all of the benefits associated with the Collector's Edition, plus receive four months of World of Warcraft game time which is eligible towards your 12-month subscription commitment. After you purchase the Diablo III Collector's Edition you just need to input the product key into the Battle.net account associated with your World of Warcraft 12-month commitment and that account will then receive the next 4 months of World of Warcraft game time for free. For example, if you already had a month of game time on the associated World of Warcraft account when you input your Diablo III Collector's Edition product key, it would then be 5 months until your next subscription payment was due.

@Neilikki, so you wouldn't care about your favorite game franchises? Surely you care how a developer treats a game that you enjoy?

@narg, what it means is: If you do the 12 month commit-to-buy (meaning you are not paying all 12 months up front, just saying you will be subscribing for a year) you get D3 for free. If you happen to get the D3 CE and attach it to your account, you will get a WoW credit for 4 months game time. In all cases, you will still receive the special Wow in-game mount.

Oh yes, i do care. Allowing a bigger number of people to enjoy a great franchise is one of the best treatment the game can possibly receive.
Also, i don't even know why are we having this conversation. Are you a magical pony that can travel in time and somehow came from a future in which an awful port of Diablo 3 came out that has put the entire Diablo franchise and its creators in deep, eternal shame? No? I thought so.

Anj pointing out the Diablo 1 port onto PS1 is a good reason why porting for the sake of a port is not that great for a franchise, or for the people who enjoy the franchise.

But, you seem angry. D3 will come out, everyone in this thread will buy the CE, and all will be well. Have fun

1. You are aware it was 13 years ago and on a totally different console?
2.It didn't damage the brand in any way so i don't get your point.
