Awesome post btw! Thank you!!
I find it hard that Titan can kill WoW by any chance, but makes me wonder how it is.
Only thing that will make me quit, if they have all races like WoW has, but really realistic :O
But different direction of blizzard means all the fun games they created so far will not be apart of it,
so what are they gonna use? Tanks? o.o
A really interesting read. I work in QA for a small dev team so everything here is very close. Its interesting to get a look at the larger Dev/QA set up. I'm not surprised to see that Dev's don't listen to QA feedback seriously O_o
Thanks for this post, its awesome !
"QA didn't really have any say in what went into the game, or what was really fucking stupid and shouldn't be in there at all, but we did have a suggestion forum internally where we could post our ideas to the devs. The problem was that most of the devs were very full of themselves and believed that we didn't know any better, and we were just there to test the games, and apparently couldn't even do that right in their eyes, so most of our suggestions were laughed off."
Sounds an awful lot like how they treat the playerbase, too. And they wonder why there's posts about how to refund your pre-order of Warlords of Timeless Isle Continent.

Fenixdown (classic) : level 70 priest. 2019 - present
This has been posted before a few years ago and denied by Blizzard.
It was a good read, very informative and it felt genuine. I think most people are expecting an "OMG Blizz sucked to work for and ask me your questions!!!" kind of thing but this felt more like a genuine post employment interview.

GC's review in this interview wasn't exactly positive so I don't blame him for saying it was fake but that doesn't make him right, nor does it make the one interviewed. When I read the part about GC all I read was a man who was busy with more important things than evaluating lower tiered personnel which to be honest is to be expected. Ghostcrawler probably had more important things to worry about as a whole than evaluating a new employee which I would expect someone in his position to have.
Edit: I'm just saying even if the part about Ghostcrawler was true, I don't blame him the dude probably had far more important shit on his plate.

If you take this is truth, keep in mind that you must also take this quote as truth: "Activision has no direct role in any of the decision making done at Blizzard." - Which undermines most of the anti-Blizz conspiracy theories on the forums.
Well if you fabricated the entire experience, your impression of the persons involved would be fake.
There isn't proof at the top though, and it's not an article it's a transcript of an AMA. I click the link to the proof and I get a 404. You assume that you got banned because Blizzard is trying to hide the truth, but you don't think they'd ban you for posting slanderous lies also? Not that I think that the person doing the AMA was lying about working for Blizzard, but we don't know that person's motivations. Also I'm playing devil's advocate here to show you that your position of "They banned me so they're guilty and lying." is illogical.

There is absolutely nothing said in that interview that is not typical of any large company and certianly nothing that would come as any surprise to those who have read any of Blizzard's employee reviews on glassdoor. Maybe you were banned because it has been posted many times before?
