Travis Day on Twitch.tv Tonight

Hey again!

Just wanted to drop a quick note to let you all know that Travis Day will be hanging out with the folks from Diablo Fans this evening from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. PT. He'll also be joined by MVPs Monstrous and Druin to chat about the upcoming patch 2.0.1 and, of course, Reaper of Souls.

Be sure to tune in to catch the stream live over at http://www.twitch.tv/diablofans, or stay tuned for links to the VOD in the coming days. :)

If you missed the live play session with Wyatt Cheng, Archon the Wizard, Moldran, and MVP Jaetch, you can check that out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UFV9XSYbeU

John Yang will be playing a Demon Hunter whenever his play session comes around. Looks like Travis may play a Barbarian, though. He still hasn't made up his mind, the cheeky bastard. :P



Keep in mind that different developers each have a different focus. For example, Wyatt's focus is the Witch Doctor, combat pacing and difficulty scaling, and the Mystic. Travis's focus is on itemization, but he's also played a big part in crafting the Paragon system.

While the systems designers (Wyatt, Travis, Don, Andrew, and John) all wear many hats and function as a team, it's going to be easier for each of them to talk about their focus. Or, rather, they're going to be able to speak much more in depth about those areas than others. So, if you're looking for insightful or really detailed answers, then it's best to ask questions that are tailored to each designer -- in this case, Travis.

I hope that makes sense! We'll be setting up play sessions with each of our system designers throughout the week, so there will definitely be other opportunities to bring up questions, concerns, or ideas.
