Folks, the justice of the Banned Resistance gamer, who goes on to go after Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo that I had covered in a previous Double Trouble, is at it again. This time, he's going after a 3rd party. Who is it? SEGA? Ubisoft? SquareEnix? Electronic Arts? Capcom? Oh no. Actually, it's Activision Blizzard. And unfortunately, it's not because of Tony Hawk RIDE.
Actually, it's because of Blizzard's number 1 IP: World of Warcraft. Estavillo lawsuit against WoW claims that the game is made for gamers “to walk or run at a calculated slow pace, resulting in the player taking longer to get where he or she needs to go in the game.” resulting in a taking a long time to finish the game or quests.
Exactly. Who cares if we ask for help or do a LFG(OR the upcoming Cross-server LF Dungeon) and who cares about the amount of content a game has? We want this game done and out of the way in the name of laziness. Also added is that he complains that "Faster transportation is not available until a player levels up accordingly, or purchases an expansion pack." And I gotta agree, even though I'm aware you need to be level 20 just to get your first mount. LEVEL 1s FOREVER! WE'LL SPEND THE DAY LOUNGING ON OUR COUCHES AND EATING FOOD ALL DAY!
In addition, Estavillo is subpoenaing 2 people: Depche Mode found Martin Lee Gore because of him being known to be sad, lonely and alienated in the songs he write, and Winona Ryder due to her and Estavillo's common interest in the book "Catcher in the Rye." Estavillo, there's someone else you should subpoena and I don't mean Jack Thompson.
Orly Taitz. Why? Because these two have one thing in common: They're nutcases.
In conclusion, Estavillo is seeking $1 million in damages and a court order that requires Activision Blizzard to change WoW that addresses the issue of his complaints. Which means...THE END OF THE CATACLYSM! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! AAAHHHHHHH!
