暗黑的lan无论对玩家还是对Blz影响都不大。
暗黑作为rpg，lan的应用相对并不多，基本以单机和盗/正版bn为主。
对blz而言，目前的盗版bn都不是基于lan的技术，而是标准的bn架构，相对容易打击。
是否取消暗黑的lan对blz而言并不是一个难于抉择的事情。

关键还是看sc2，lan是主要的游戏方式之一，而恰好lan又是浩方，vs这些盗版平台的技术基础，这将是一个两难的抉择。

那些说肯定不会取消局域网的呢。。。？

关于d3的lan，原文访谈

DS: Will there be Open Battle.net and LAN play?
Wilson:...We have no intent to support LAN games, because we focus on Battle.net, where we have the ability to keep everyone in contact with the Blizzard community.

关于d3的收费，原文访谈

DS: So no monthly fees for Battle.net?

Wilson: I can't say 100% that there will be no charges, but our goal is to sell a boxed product. The problem is we're multinational, so each individual market is different. The boxed model works in Asia for example, but not everywhere. If we publish a financial model then we have to do it simultaneously for each region [in Asia], and it's hard to say what each will look like. What I can say that a boxed game is our goal, not a subcription game, though I can't say for absolute certain that there will never be any fees. Just that it's not our goal.

国父先生，你那sc2的豪华版我应该能赢到手了。

SC2离发售至少还有半年，D3离发售至少1年，话可别绝对了。

取消局域网是个信号，就看BLZ什么时候动手了。

不能肯定bn是100%的不收费，但是d3（包括sc2）仍是一个传统的单机游戏（boxed game），而不是一个基于用户的收费游戏（subcription game），主要原因在于我们在全世界有许多市场，彼此之间的情况并不相同。

我相信这段话透漏出来的意思是：bn2.0的一些设定包括取消d3的lan，其主要目的不是收取类似mmog的月费，而是引导用户购买正版。在中国大陆，这个和网易的斥求是一致的。

lan对于sc2是个难以抉择的东西，但是对于d3显然不是，在internet高度发达的当今，做出舍弃的决策相当轻松。

这里了解过wlk的人应该知道wlk beta/alpha的登录机制，最大的改变就是来自于账户名从传统的数字+字母变成了email的blizzard account模式，这是一个信号，包括wow在内的产品全面纳入bn2.0管理的信号。

恩，拭目以待。
