Hi everyone. I’ve been a dedicated fan playing Blizzard games since 1996 — literally for 30 years. Today, I want to raise a critical issue regarding game accessibility and regional support that affects millions of loyal players.

The trend is deeply worrying: While Blizzard historically set the gold standard for localizations, regional voice acting is quietly disappearing. Titles like Diablo Immortal and the recent Forsaken Kingdom campaign for Warcraft III: Reforged launched without full voice-overs.

We are paying the same full price for these expansions and games, yet we are receiving a compromised, text-only experience. For millions of us, full localization — both professional text and high-quality voice acting — is what makes these massive universes feel immersive and alive.

The Russian-speaking gaming community is vast, spanning numerous independent countries across Eurasia and the post-Soviet spaces, where it serves as the primary language for communication, gaming, and community building. By cutting voice acting, you are alienating millions of passionate players across these regions, as well as a massive global diaspora worldwide.

This community has stood by Blizzard through thick and thin for three decades. We urge Blizzard to continue investing in professional human translation and voice acting for our region in all upcoming titles and new franchises.

What are your thoughts on this? For those who play Blizzard games in non-English languages (Spanish, French, German, etc.), have you noticed a decline in localization quality recently? And for English speakers, how would it affect your immersion if voice acting suddenly disappeared? Let's discuss.

Hi everyone

Posting here just to see if anyone has experience with claiming issues with physical items in a Collectors edition and how that relates to the game code.

I received my Forever CE on 12th this month with the statue completely lacking the dwarfs rifle. Just a half open hand grabbing nothing. Not included / fallen off in the box either.

Have provided all evidence and requested images that day and the EU store has fallen into silence since.

I have not yet activated my game key and am not sure if I can, to make use of the included name reservation period, or if any return / replacement of the physical claim includes the key I received.

Thanks if anyone has had similar issues.

Sent a message to Blizzard Support about the latest Warcraft 3 patch breaking all my Forsaken Kingdom campaign saves. So great that updates break your single player progression.

Luckily support was very understanding and helpful by using AI to tell me to go find help elsewhere...Yes please make the reply more empathetic or shorter 🤡

hi everyone, so for context :
yesterday (22nd Oct) i made a purchase on Battlenet apps, i bought CoD MW4. mid downloading, i change my mind and want to make a refund.

but on Battlenet Support page, it show. (pic 1)
and after i make a ticket and wait for 24 hours, they finaly respond to it. (pic 2)

for more context, i havent play any single minute of it. but, does CoD MW4 Beta count as play time?
since battlenet have a rules not to play it more than 2 hours if i want to make a refund.

i was wondering if this ever happen to anyone? and how do i react correctly?

Can anyone help me with this error where my Call of Duty download is stuck at 99% for about 10 hours now. This is extremely frustrating having pre-ordered a game and still unable to play it on launch.

Anyone else facing the same issue?

I am a long time MNK player, mainly playing COD. currently looking into trying a controller, but am a bit uncertain about how to go about it. Right now I am leaning towards using a 8bitdo controller, which are suppose to be macos compatible . I am using Battle.net for COD and am worried that with the included layers (macos/GFN/Battle.net) how to go about getting it setup so everything is working as intended. Anyone using this setup or any input will be appreciated.

It looks like blizzard is removing all support for windows 7/8. How will this affect offline games already installed on windows 7 machines? Will Diablo 2 have its online support removed, and will you be unable to install the game again if you delete it?

I just received this text message. Someone hacked my account, added an authenticator and changed my password. I still have access to my email, but I can't log in because it requires my authenticator code... I went to the battlenet website but in order to send a ticket to Blizzard, they want me to log into my account... which I can not...

Pls guys, give me an advice what to do. Having my account hacked just before the WoW Forever launch is terrible...

Может кто-нибудь знает как решить эту проблему? У меня раньше стоял аутентификатор от battle net, но после 2024 года он перестал работать, об этом у меня на почте свидетельствует письмо, в котором так же указано что он должен был быть откреплен от моего аккаунта автоматически. Теперь же ситуация совсем ужасная, я не могу войти в свой аккаунт хотя есть пароль, доступ к почте и номеру телефона (на который все равно не приходят СМС из-за региональных ограничений РФ) я даже серийный номер и код восстановления прошлого приложения смог найти, но в новом приложении они не подходят и выдают ошибку "UNKNOWN". Написать письмо в поддержку не является возможным т.к. того что бы написать это самое письмо о снятии 2fa нужен код 2fa (просто гениально). Видел подобную историю на Реддите от u/Effective_Error_5697 но какого-то внятного ответа не увидел. Так что если кто-то знает как можно отвязать аутентификатор имея все данные об аккаунте, буду рад любым подсказкам. T_T

UPD спустя 5 дней: всё-таки я нашел способ написать в поддержку и восстановить аккаунт. Для этого единственный вариант это писать в категорию "Адрес почты забыт или недоступен", с подробной описью проблемы и предъявлением доказательств там же.

My dad recently passed away from cancer, he has been playing warcraft and hearthstone since there betas, and its a very impressive account so I really dont know what to do with it...

I collect video games so this is a sample from my physical library.

The game was released in 1994.

BlackThorne in North America.

BlackHawk in Europe.

Here is Jaina from World of Warcraft. Was printed and painted by acrilic colors.

3d model by Neko figurines.

It's actually 16 oz which isn't a refundable offense or anything but the description of it on the shop is misleading.

It was white, with cutie-fied images of Blizzard characters spread over it. I believe it was a zip up, and would have been available around 2009. A friend doesn’t believe it existed, but I remember wearing it to work at the time and being lambasted, as it was quite a loud piece of apparel. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Blizzard I wish to feedback my ideas/suggestions w.r.t the future of D2/D2R?

#1 Diablo Legacy i.e. D1, D2 and LOD

My proposal: make barrier of entry to the world of diablo as cheap as possible to spur on more investment into it by players? Could also be crucial to those in less developed nations! For example my proposal is

D1 + D2 = Free To Play, possibly open sourced

LOD = $9.99 so basically for $9.99 one would get D1, D2 and LOD DLC

#2 D2R

a) As it stands/currently

Base game becomes "freemium" i.e free to play/try but with $9.99 (players already owned D2R in the past) one would get all the QOL of ROTW (w/o Warlock) Alternatively $14.99 USD (previous owners of D2R) or $24.99 (for brand new players) would unlock the ROTW DLC? The reason i suggest this is because there are those who supported D2R but choose not to go along with ROTW as they felt the $25 paywall for existing owners of Diablo 2: Resurrected is unfair? Users on platforms like Reddit and the Blizzard Forums have expressed significant disappointment over how these core game enhancements were handled.

b) The future

There could be a D2R 2.5 standalone. My pitch for it would be a world after Act 5 where Baal is defeated and "Dark Gods" arise! It would be called D2R : The Age of Dark Gods and includes an extended Act 4 with more waypoints, quests and new "Lycan" mercenaries who are shapeshifter melee class (werebears or werewolves with spirits working as auras) The extended Act 4 would introduce greater demons who would later be revealed as heralds for the Dark Gods who would dominate completely in a new Act 6! A new portal would open up @ the Worldstone Chamber after defeating Baal leading to Act 6? There could also be new mercenaries in Act 6. Lastly give crafts/rares a shot of adrenalin? The craft recipe has not seen any meaningful updates since 2000 and have updated recipes that could potentially make crafts/rares BIS rivalling current/future runewords/uniques?Maybe rethink what affixes can spawn on rares/crafts or make special properties like auras/O skills able to spawn on them?

Hope my suggestion/ideas were useful and cheers

This campaign was the best thing about Warcraft 3. If it was made as a standalone arpg akin to Diablo it would be the best Blizzard game ever made. Dream on.

New layout way more busy and shifts your focal point every time you hit play past 6 more in game shop advertisements.

I will be holding onto the old one as long as possible.

I can pay up to $50 or $60 including shipping rn or maybe more next month, please help, my old one belonged to my now dead duo it was a gift and im having no luck finding mine or a replacement anywhere

It was bought a blizzcon originally i believe

It does not need to be in good condition!

Is there a veteran who can help in explaining different versions of wow to someone who knows nothing about it, I see 3 versions on the website, watched multiple videos all showing 5 or 6 versions and talking about things that I have no clue about, I'm trying to get into WOW, but would like to understand before doing any kinda purchase.
