I'd agree aside from Hearthstone, because I know for a fact that Hearthstone was never conceived for such a reason.
It's entirely possible they increased the project funding for that reason though.
But honestly, going after popular genres isn't a bad thing. The quality of the games is what matters the most. And so far Blizzard's games have been mostly good.

Indeed. I'm happy to buy games from Blizzard because a majority of their games have been incredibly good. If it was a company such as EA that started trying to get into the popular genres (which they have), then I would be a lot less optimistic. Blizzard's games only serve to improve the genre as well as make money.

Weeeell, I wouldn't go that far.
There have been bad games, overrated games and games that don't stand the test of time.
In general though, I think that their games have been good.

Let's face it. It needed to happen.

I.e: Mike Rogers doesn't think it's rape unless the victim knows (s)he has been raped. Sounds legit.
