Please bring back Blizzard North

[Joegrizly]

Please.

Blizzard North was just a small studio, bought by Blizzard, who made a couple games for them. Afterwards, they were absorbed into Blizzard (since maintaining a separate studio is wasting money). After that, the Blizzard North folks split up. Some left immediately, some left slowly over the years like any other Blizzard employee. Several still work for Blizzard, though they may have moved to other projects. Not even the people who left went the same way: some formed companies and ended up doing similar ARPG games, but others switched to different genres, left game development entirely, etc.

Life happens. Nothing stays the same. Even if Blizzard had zero wrongdoing here, Blizzard North was always in a financially awkward position, where I think this fate was inevitable. You have to realize that everyone in a company is an individual with their own life and their situations. Amazing games are often a freak occurrence of these individuals meeting, and you can't recreate those experiences because those individuals will have to part ways for their own concerns, often sooner rather than later.

Because of that, there's not really anything to discuss here. What you're asking is impossible. It's like suggesting that the Beetles get back together on a music forum.

Locked.
