BlizzCon 2011: The passion of Chris Haga (D3 Gameplay Panel)

This is from the Diablo III Gameplay & Auction House panel of BlizzCon 2011. Chris Haga is a lead artist and skill designer on Diablo 3.

This clip is not a showcase of current skills in Diablo that looks cool. This is, like Chris points out, a few examples of how they improve ideas that don't work.

Uploaded because I enjoyed his enthusiasm and passion for what he does, that really shines through.

Wow, knowing that THAT guy is designing parts of D3 has to be the most unsettling thing I've heard about the game so far.

@t0lkien1 First of all I think WOW sucks I've never played it and never will I ever play it. Second you're obviously never seen the movie Beastmaster... Which is a DARK OCCULT HACKFEST movie. Third you sound like you're one of those pretentious ass purists who thinks that games shouldn't evolve or change and that devs should make the same damn game over and over. I'm tired of everyone complaining about every little detail in this game as if you're not going to play it because it has ferrets.

I have mixed feelings about this game. It should have been out by now and stfu with the "It'd ready whenever we feel like publishing". They've sat on WoW forever and their other titles have been so neglected. 2012... R u serious. Pillar - lame as balls. Awesome ferrets? There is no such thing. It's been ahead and a half since SC2 was released and you want to tel me the game couldn't be polished by now? My anus. It's because of WoW and WoW alone. They no longer care about any other property. WC3

@133j0hn Calm down dude. I'm not a fanboy, I've never even played a single game by Blizzard. I just like the look of D3. I don't like it either but I was stating a fact, they aren't gonna change it, deal with it and use a different rune.
