That's certianly a lot of talent walking out the door. Bill Roper is easily one of the driving forces behind Blizzard's quality. This could be quite the change for Blizzard, and I'm not thinking it will be for the better.

blizzard north isn't that great. diablo 2 was a mess and the expansion pack made it even worse. bill roper has some great ideas about game design, but like all theories they can can be adopted fairly easily by someone else.
putting someone who actually cares onto making diablo 3 is probably exactly what the product needs. blizzard has the cash and the expertise, they need a designer who will care about the product. it's taken blizzard north over a year to finish patch 1.10 for D2. they obviously don't care.

Not a fan of Blizzard. They are the Boris Vallejo's of the computer gaming industry. If you don't understand that reference don't ask!
