I guess they're giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

Probably more just prepping for the MS deal to be finished as they've promised to bring games to other platforms/launchers.

With ActiBlizz it's all about money. Just look at D3 auction house. They purposely dropped wrong items to players in order to force them to use auction house. When it was found out they backtracked. But it's always been like that. Same with WoW and mounts. Etc. They keep milking everything.

I have never thought I'd see the day when I think MS is the good guy in a merger.
