I'm trying to D2R Items come up with how to answer this without unnecessarily degrading Activision. My question is how do you know if the business realities of the present, as they are, and do you have a relationship with that parent corporation, Activision, such that you continue to run your business in that manner?

Are you able to say that Blizzard sufficiently autonomous to say that 'We don't think the idea is good, so we're going itand to go back to the design board ... You might not get another game from us for five, 10 years or whatever the case may be? You're in a situation in which you are able to do that?

There were several questions that I had when Mike told me, "Hey, you should consider applying for this job." There was a handful of questions I asked him and a handful of questions I asked Bobby [Kotick, CEO of Activisionas well as all the others from Activision Blizzard. What you're touching on is something which is important to know about what it takes to be a Blizzard as a company, from both the perspective of a developer and also, honestly, a community and a fan's perspective.

Here's the thing I will tell you. We're here, and we will soon be hosting the Diablo League Finals, which was developed together with the staff at Activision Blizzard, and the motivation behind it is the same desire we have, which is to have our games viewed and enjoyed by millions of players all over the world.

I think that we have different ways to think about how to accomplish this goal, but our goals are like and closely aligned with them.The problem from a player's point of view is, if an eventual point when it does look like an Diablo League won't be able to sustain this kind of interest it needs will Activision abruptly shift gears to diablo II resurrected items "Well we're going to do the next thing now,"
