Yea, better clam down. Although the MLG interview was kind of a joke, as long as we wait patiently we can soon see all the other interviews. Especially the 30 minute interview from TL should be good.

That would be the first time I hear anyone praise Blizzard for their unwillingness to listen.

you'd also be unwilling to listen to the differing opinions of a thousand people. Gotta put your foot down at some point.

he might be not to active on tl, I even stated several times they shouldn't listen so much on the community as they do right now, in these sort of threads. But as long as they let the game only be slightly ruined by the community, its still okay with me.

I just get the feeling that both Browder and Kim are really just failing and don't have a solid insight into the pro scene, or - weirdly - the game they're making


Yeah I'm not confident in Browder or David Kim. I think Pro Koreans would be much more valuable for balance contributions, than other foreigners who tend to be more vocal about potential imbalance.

That David Kim interview was absolute trash. No substance.

It's all fluff questions that have been answered a thousand times already.

And given the question thread, that interview was truly pathetic.

The TL question thread? That was not the TL interview, i think. Just some generic MLG stuff.

Can not wait for the TL interview.


Does anyone know when TL interview will be posted. I can't wait for that. Indeed, many of us submitted questions!

Pro feedback could sometimes be the worst.

Yeah. Every time Blizzard has listened to the community regarding something, it has made the game better. Remember when the Ladder was going to have different maps than tournaments, specifically "aggressive maps"?

Yeah that didn't really work out.

The MLG interviews were puff pieces and IMO terrible. I put both on mute halfway through.

Give us the legit/detailed interviews please.

No, he said he had 30 minutes booked.

Perhaps he is making a pretty compilation or something went wrong (sick / cancelled?).
Comparing BW with SCII is like comparing a beautiful three-master sailing ship with a modern battlecruiser. Both are beautiful in their own way, both perform the same task, but they are worlds apart in how they are built and how they are steered.

I try to be first in all things. I will always praise someone for taking into account the source of the information that they are receiving. Listening to the community and doing exactly what they request is a good way to ruin a game.

Because they made a big deal out of interviewing the lead game designer, lead balance designer, and CEO of blizzard @ MLG. Its only natural for them to live up to the hype. You must always meet the expectations you set, as otherwise you fail in the eyes of many even if the product ends up being decent (looks at diablo 3).

If you expected an on stage interview in front of a huge crowd to be anything other than what it was, you have unreasonable expectations lol. Big stage interviews are always fluff.
