Episode One

The first episode features Flux and Elly discussing the early days of DiabloII.net, their visit to Blizzard North in 1999, the Diablo II beta, and the news that Diablo III was originally developed as an MMORPG, back at Blizzard North in 2001. That conversation is followed by part one of Flux's interview with Diablo creator Max Schaefer, in which Max answers questions about the early design goals of Diablo I-III, and discusses the new version of Diablo III. The show wraps up with a bit more from Flux and Elly, as they digest Max's revelations and talk about security issues in MMORPGs

Episode Two

This episode features Flux and Elly discussing the surprisingly-positive fan reaction to episode one, as well as fake D3 play-tester news, Blizzard's relentless (and annoying) social media marketing, and the sticker shock inflicted by BlizzCon 2011's just-announced ticket price. Following that discussion is part two of Flux's interview with Diablo-creator Max Schaefer. In this half hour Max answers questions about Torchlight and Torchlight II, along with Runic Games' design philosophy and shares his thoughts on current trends in the RPG community.
