Description

Two companies. Two opposing cultures. One multi-billion-dollar video game empire.

Stay Awhile and Listen: How Two Blizzards Unleashed Diablo and Forged a Video Game Empire invites listeners to discover the origin of Blizzard North, a studio built by gamers, for gamers, and Blizzard Entertainment, a convergence of designers driven to rule their industry.

Composed from exhaustive research and hundreds of personal interviews, the Stay Awhile and Listen series divulges the fated meeting that brought the two Blizzards together, the clashes that tore them apart, and their transformation from grassroots democracy to corporate empire. At the center of it all - Diablo, a hack-and-slash adventure through the darkest recesses of Hell that changed online gaming forever.

Took a while to get into, but well worth it!

This well researched book stitches together a wide number of interviews and as such, the audiobook narrator introduces the person speaking each time. While it's always important to credit the sources, when listening to this book, it took a while for me to get accustomed to the constant breaks in the narration/storytelling to cite the interviewee's name. That said, this book is a definite must read for anyone interested in the story behind Diablo and Blizzard North. If you are someone like me, who grew up spending countless hours in Diablo 1 and 2, Warcraft, or Starcraft (it gets a few mentions throughout the book) then you will love to hear what was going on backstage as these games were being developed. It truly makes me really sad that the development of Diablo 3 was done by Blizzard South, who obviously had a different approach to the series... Still, it's great to reminisce about the Golden era of Blizzard North.
