FYI, Dave Maldonado is working on Starcraft: Ghost and Leonard Boyarsky is now at Blizzard.

I guess Blizzard got someone good, a shame Leonard didn't come here.

Then he is wasting his talents.  Diablo sucks.

 

It sucks for you. Millions of avid Diablo players can't be wrong just because you say so.

 

Or are you a God wasting your eternity in these forums?

 

I'll just point out that millions of people can be wrong.

 

2000 != New millenium.

Diet Dr. Pepper != Dr. Pepper

The Backstreet Boys are not good entertainers.

etc...

etc...

etc...

 

Also, it isn't just because he says so. There are quite a few people of the opinion that Diablo sucks. You know, quantity isn't quality, and all that jazz.

 

Personally, I couldn't care less about the Diablo series, they're alright dungeon crawling hack and slashers, but not much else. There certainly isn't any role-playing in them, and they're certainly mindless.

 

In any event, this has gone way off-topic.

I'd like to see them bring the other Chris Taylor that used to work at Interplay and was last the lead on the middle earth online game before the licence changed hands.

 

I Spoke to this Chris many times and he reminds me of Ferret a lot.

 

 

He's ah...he's been busy making Dungeon Siege games....

 

No, I believe that's the Chris Taylor that didn't work at Interplay.

Chris Taylor!

 

Oh bugger, but he's busy taking over the RTS genre again...

ermm No. There are TWO Chris Taylor's in the gaming industry. The CT that makes DS is NOT the same as the one I am refering too.

 

The one I am refering too was a member of the fallout 2 team and the lead dev on Fallout:Tactics. He also was the lead dev on middle earth online.

"I cannot profess to be a theologian; but it seems to me that Christians who believe in a super human Satan have got themselves into a logical impasse with regard to their own religion. For either God can not prevent the mischief of Satan, in which case he is not omnipotent; or else He could do so if he wished, but will not, in which case He is not benevolent. Fortunately, being a pagan witch, I am not called upon to solve this problem."

I'm thinking he's working on Diablo 3

That would be a good thing. Lets hope it doesn't have Fallout themes to it. :rolleyes:

This Chris Taylor has nothing to do with the Dungeon Siege one.

 

 

And Akari is Richard Taylor, no connection with the other Taylors, as far as i know... nice guy, by the way.

 

Fallout Chris Taylor is bigger than ChrisT (a funeh! don't tell the cartoons mob please...)
