Blizzard: Make games, stop writing fucking books
At the Game Developers Conference, former World of Warcraft director Jeffrey Kaplan decided it was time to address some of the issues Blizzard, and other studios have been creating for quite some time now.
Apparently the man is tired of the lengthy too elaborated storytelling that plagues many of today's games.
And it must be said, he comes over quite brutal, even for his own (ex) co-workers. He left the World of Warcraft team last year to work on Blizzard's new mysterious MMO.

"Basically, and I'm speaking to the Blizzard guys in the back: we need to stop writing a fucking book in our game, because nobody wants to read it,"
"We need to deliver our story in a way that is uniquely video game,"
"We need to engage our players in sort of an inspiring experience, and the sooner we accept that we are not Shakespeare, Scorsese, Tolstoy or the Beatles, the better off we are."
After trashing his colleagues he offered them some consolidation too:"We need to deliver our story in a way that is uniquely video game,"
"We need to engage our players in sort of an inspiring experience, and the sooner we accept that we are not Shakespeare, Scorsese, Tolstoy or the Beatles, the better off we are."
"If it makes us feel better, Shakespeare couldn't 3D model his way out of a paper bag,"
Seems like a healthy work environment there :)In other news:
