I wouldn't be that quickly talking about Blizzard success. The only games with which they are taking a bit of risk are HS, HotS and Overwatch (and it seems that the only successful one is HS by now, the rest are popular just by the name of the company behind them and the effort advertising them). Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2 sold themselves just by their names.
