I wonder of Dr Narud will feature in Blizzard Allstars?

I wonder about The Elder Scrolls Online.

The original "DotA" currently features 110 heroes.
Should Blizzard Entertainment aim at even half of that, there are plenty of open spots for their characters, which renders this a very interesting topic indeed.

I got excited about D3 coming to playstation, then I remmebered how much the game sucks and it will still suck even on PS3, now I wish they'd release D2 on playstation, I'd actually play that but it won't ever happen.

Too late. But when you say "only" 15, how many developers do they employ?

Around 4700.

So I'd say it's ok if 15 of them worked on this.
And yes I know that not everyone of them is a coder, designer, etc.. But still

 

[WaterKnight]

Yes, only a fraction would be in developing.

I loved the part where Metzen said "we are taking risks, doing new stuff". Proceeds to talk about Warcraft.

That said, Hearthstone seems to have an obscene amount of visual effects.
