I don't think Blizzard's writers are that good. I can think of a bunch of stuff that's better. Of course, the games that are better are usually RPGs, but I personally thought the C&C storyline was much more interesting and fun that WC1-3. And to me Diablo1/2 were interesting more so for their mechanics than the story and the primary thing for me was that someone did Rogue/Nethack right.

Now I'm not saying Metzen (and Blizzard) is bad, I'm just saying much out there is better, at least on a story perspective.
