Diablo 4's launch has been "one of the smoothest," and Blizzard is proud of it (www.pcgamesn.com)

I suppose that's because they've lost half their old customers

If not more. The twitch streams, as a proxy, fell by 90+%.

Because nobody wanted to buy that one, I'd wager?

They're used to Titanic scale disasters, this was more of a Hindenburg.

Some chatter about the season being decent, but I just don't have a desire to pop back in.

My SO bought me the collectors edition of Diablo 4 as a gift . Since I had the CE's for Diablo 2 and 3 and a box copy of Diablo 1 and wanted to complete my collection. Not realizing it didn't come with the game and I just have a lack of desire to play it I have not bought the actual game. Which Speaks volumes to me about why the demand is just not there, but I understand that's anecdotal evidence.
