There are a lot of people in that picture. Please explain how any of them are more differentiated than TF2 classes. Is there a fat, slow character with a big gun? A sniper? A sprightly smartass character? Looks like all the bases are covered.

Half-serious about this - what makes the characters well-defined rather than a blurry spectrum of classes?

are you a girl brained idiot obviously the weapons and their abilities what is wrong with you

He reminds me of a transgender lady. I think it's the earrings.

It is also hilarious that he is responsible for lore throughout all Blizzard franchises...all because he did the Warcraft RTS "lore" back in the day.

the man has lived the dream of being a video game writer to it's fullest. I don't care if it's not high art, and that's people who pine for old blizzards problem. All of these cinematics and moments and things people remember as deeper or meaningful weren't, it was the pulpy heart string pulling kind of stuff that grabbed you by the balls as a teen

It wasn't about the writing being good, it was just about it resonating with something human and dumb but no less virtuous for any of that. It's conan confronting thulsa doom. It's luke confronting the emperor. It's base and it's nerd, it's not and never was articulated artfully. It's bombastic and loud, it's primal and thoughtless. It's blood and thunder. It's feeling, not the details.

metzen has no pretensions about what he does, he sticks his stand in character Thrall in a trench coat for an expansion because he thinks it looks cool. A lot of folks get mad about that because it's dumb, something I can't argue in the least.

But there was a time, when I was a child, where I would have told him how cool that was and meant it. We should all be so blessed to have that child within us somewhere, and to be able to pour it into our work.

I remember being about 10 and looking at all the cool pictures he drew in the warcraft 2 manual. then I'd go to imagination land and pretend I was an orc :)

I liked that the original d2 manual had detailed little lore blurbs for every skill for every character, literally every single one.
