I know its your game and this is the bussiness you guys are into but how in the world do you guys keep up with all the seemingly endless lore and story arcs? Somebodys desk must have sticky notes as far as the eye can see. Some insight into the behind the scenes here would be a bit cool, thx.

We have a Historian and a department dedicated to the lore, the characters, and the worlds that have been created. They have a lot on their plates but they do a fantastic job.

Jobs in that department fall under Creative Development for those wondering.

Is this a new department? Because it certainly didn't seem to be in place for the major Draeni Retcon of 2006... i.e. The Burning Crusade.




It's not a new department, but it is a growing department, and you'll have to forgive them for being human. :) It's no small task to keep track of three complex, distinct worlds, lore, history, and people.

Metzen is a god.

He makes no mistakes.

But to cover that up obviously they throw in a few "mistakes" or two. Don't be surprised if blue silences me for this. :o


You know too much... Please do not run. Hiding will do no good. Stay where you are and they will be with you soon...
