Good interview, a bit on the long end maybe! xD

The best Blizzard can do for SC2 and its community is to impliment LAN and gtfo. I dont want them to be in charge of who can broadcast the game and not etc. Its bullshit and if they truly care about their "brand name" as they claim to do they should let the community take care of itself.

Pretty funny how they were dancing around the fact that they care about Korea because of BW legacy, but obviously didn't want to talk about BW.

I wonder why Blizz is so opposed to LAN.

I it's interesting to me that they never offer an explanation.

A great read, though getting these kinds of interviews is so rare that I would have appreciated some more "hard" questions. Questions such as why they have not implemented a system to broadcast or link to current tournaments in-game for everyone to see it, to really promote esports.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Great interview. I am quite happy with Blizzard's approach to the the game for the most part. I would have liked to have heard some questions regarding some of the fundamental differences in BW and SC2 and their plans regarding the need for more micro in SC2. I don't think the new units fix the problem on it's own, it's a design issue.

Nice touch with the question about LAN also interesting answer. Maybe we will see something for HOTS?


I doubt it. There will be no LAN. Ever. They just dodged the question in a more friendly manner than usual that's all. Most likely we'll have some kind of autosave system like there was in Warcraft3.


I don't think they dodged the question at all. They said that LAN isn't happening. What they didn't say was how they were planning on alleviating the issue. The only thing that I could infer about that from the interview was that they realize how important the problem is but they still haven't prioritized the solution. I expect something to be implemented in HOTS.

Really, all that needs to happen is for an esports channel to start up. Once that happens I'll just watch TV all day long.. lol

Great interview, was a joy to read!

Unfortunately there are already the usual "Blizz sucks and I probably barely read and/or understood anything" - comments but oh well.

How are they dodging the LAN question when, on mutliple occasions, they made clear that LAN is not going to happen. At the same time they implicitely say that they ARE strongly discussing and probably even working on some feature to help with these issues.

As far as why no LAN, is that still not clear to anyone?
With implemented LAN piracy will spike to the sky and Blizzard doesn't have any control about the tournament scene at all. Who knows, maybe KeSPA would've picked up Starcraft 2 and do their shit disregarding Blizzard whatsoever? Stuff like that was a valid, concern for Blizzard.
And while people will argue that piracy doesn't matter at all, well I don't. But arguing about that is a whole other topic so yeh.

Blizzard does have high interest of protecting the competitive spirit of their game by implementing a reconnection feature or somthing similar, so we will see this with HotS most likely. If not the outcry is going to be huge and they keep getting hit on their reputation, something they wouldn't want.

I wonder how Blizzard DotA is going to turn out. I can't imagine it being something current DotA / HoN players want to play, not the ones that love the gameplay and game mechanics of those very games. But perhaps, if it's really well excetuted, which I imagine is the case for a Blizzard game, it creates a little space of its own, outside the big guys' competition.

Either way I personally love the idea of playing with all those great Blizzard characters, so that'll be enough of a reason for me to play it some for fun at least

Excellent work. I was sitting here watching the news pop up at 4-5 o'clock CET thank you Wax. Exciting to see the things from the BW forum explained again lol. And BTW funny comments on live ticker.
I really hope for the best... hopefully jaedong recovers from his strugles (if he really has some) and kicks some ass... Or maybe Flash and bisu do some ugly things to the former B teamers that are now A teamers in SC 2. I hope that not anything falls apart into little pieces and we see how not important their whole experience is. Poor BW... I love watching osl

ew GOMtv. Their philosophy, how to raise awareness & gather fans; cancel all free streams. Can't even watch code a without throwing money around.

Would it be possible to have these interviews in video format in the future? It's an incredibly insightful interview, but because of its depth, it would have been awesome if I could just listen to it instead.
