That combination is also when I stopped playing blizzard games, except for a short stint with Hearthstone. I also wonder how many were lost because they didn't continue to cater to the core player base.
Or maybe they did, and people like you and me were just left behind. Maybe a cultural difference between those who experienced LAN parties and those who didn't.

I think this is it more than anything. If all you know is "quick match" matchmaking, it's hard to realize what you're missing. LAN parties were really awesome.
I did one (bunch of 35 yo guys) a few weeks ago, and it’s still just as awesome as before. It’s just a shame you cannot play any game released in the past 15 or so years, so you go back to Warcraft III :/
