I woke up this morning to learn that Diablo 2 had gotten a new expansion and—for a brief, glorious second—I was right back in the early aughts, carefree and full of the irrepressible potential of childhood.
And then I was 32 again, my jaw hurt and it was raining. Still, chin up: in a chat with Eurogamer ahead of Reign of the Warlock's release, Blizzard suggested that, if no one gets mad at it for D2's new expansion, it might kick off active development on the venerable ARPG, bringing further expansions and more opportunities for your author to briefly feel like he has his whole life ahead of him again.
"We are excited for the opportunity we have right now to see what the community says about what we're making," said lead designer Timothy Vasconcellos. "If we're trusted with that legacy and if it's a positive reception and they say: no you guys actually did do this very intricate dance preserving the 1999 game, then maybe we can think about how we pursue those opportunities in the future."
