J. Allen Brack: Yeah. It was about two years ago, at D2R Items
 that I made the announcement that we were going to bring back Diablo Classic. It was something that the fans had been asking for for a long time.

We told ourselves that we weren't going to attempt it. And then, throughout the beginning part of 2017. we worked out how to do it. Thus, announcing it to BlizzCon was certainly one of my most memorable moments of work. It was truly unexpected. It was something no one would have thought it would happen, despite of the comments we made about it.

It's been a bit of a full circle here, it is now almost two years and just to observe the immense amount of excitement in the crowd, the enormous amount of passion, and the sheer number of people who have returned for the second time, people who been involved in the past in the past, and also those who had never really been able to experience the excitement of the beginning really like ... It's been a great experience however it's not enough. It's very satisfying and pleasing to see the enthusiasm of the fans and to feel the community grow in that way. But it's been a peak job experience, definitely.

It is time to take in a moment and looking at your progress to this position. What were your goals, and what were the primary aspects you identified coming into this leadership role in Blizzard?

I think the element that was the most significant--and I'm sure that's why Mike [Morhaime, co-founder and former president of d2r items for sale able to choose me for this job--was it was the reality that Blizzard is a true developer-led business and that the technology and the game-focused focus we have are in place across all leadership levels and is really important and very strong.
