You are also older though. I don't know about you personally, but I was a fanboy all the same, but as I age the importance has decreased significantly, especially as I started to not enjoy the same types of games as I once did in my youth. My son however, he is just like me when I was 10, loves them. Likes waiting for them. Wants to be a part of the everything Blizzard.

I often find this problem hard to detect. Are things less interesting? Are films worse? Or am I just less interested.
ON the flip side when I was a child, we had no internet and I remember long boring weeks of Summer (In a rural area, meant I spent a lot of time alone). But as an adult I basically am never bored. Is this because of having more stuff to do? Or because of being older?

I don't think they lost their magic.
I was a WoW hardcore player for years. I won't play Overwatch due to it being a twitch shooter but I love the art direction.
Hearthstone is awesome. Can be played lightly, whenever, and is extremely well built for a "card game".
I wonder about this though. While Overwatch as a game has been successful, I've heard some people say that they feel like Blizzard has lost their magic after Overwatch and Hearthstone. I used to always be interested in any new game Blizzard was working on, but those days are gone.
