Diablo 3 Game Director on Diablo 4, Diablo 3 and Diablo 2 & his 2 biggest mistakes

Описание: Note: This version has an audio fix for those having issues.

This week we have a rather special podcast/vidcast as we are joined by the one and only Jay Wilson who was the Game Director on Diablo 3 when the game launched.

With Diablo 4 due next year, we thought it would be interesting to hear from Jay to discuss what it's like developing a Diablo game for today's market.

Jay also discussed his previous work background as well as his work on Diablo 3 and the design decisions made by the development team at the time, beta testing a Diablo game, and much more. The section on beta testing is particularly interesting considering the Diablo 4 beta is still active.
