I guess they're giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

Battle.net has been around since at least StarCraft 1. I'm glad Blizzard is showing signs of throwing in the towel when better storefronts/launchers are available

I can nearly guarantee you that once you download it from Steam servers that it will require the Battle.net launcher.

Mike Ybarra confirmed this is not the case. They will launch directly from Steam.
