Work @ Blizzard; On Diablo 3?
by Maarten Goldstein, Feb 02, 2006 4:48pm PSTBlizzard's Employment Opportunities page was updated the other day, as the company is looking for several 3D artists. The job descriptions all specifically mention that the team behind Diablo 1 & 2 is looking for these reinforcements, with that team working on an "unannounced PC Project". The lead environment artist position calls for someone experienced with "modeling and texturing assets for a diverse visual range of environments" while a 3D character artist opening mentions the ideal candidate should be experienced with "modeling and texturing a diverse visual range of characters and creatures". There have been persistent rumors of Diablo 3 being developed, which wouldn't be much of a surprise considering the immense success of the previous installments. However Blizzard has remained tight-lipped. Thanks to GameSpot for the tip.

D2 had the gameplay improvements, but personally I thought D1 was way more fun at the time it came out. I mean come on, you got closer and closer to HELL.

What a bunch of crap.
"The team behind Diablo 1 & 2" is no longer working at Blizzard. An office building does not a team make.

Now if they'd make it a Planetside-like MMOFPS that'd be just awesome.

I think this is unlikely. It would be fun, yes, and I'd buy it, but I shan't hold my breath...
StarCraft 2 is wet dream game and a half but I don't think it will ever come :(

I don't see Blizzard doing Starcraft 2 and Starcraft: Ghost at the same time, but... Then again, it IS Blizzard. They have all sorts of trick-filled sleeves.
