los co-fundadores de blizzard Bill Roper, erich schaefer, Max Schaefer, y David Brevik, han decidido abandonar blizzard para ir en busca de otras oportunidades, parece ser debido a la incerteza de lo ke va a ocurrir con Vivendi Universal ke como todos sabemos lleva tiempo con un revuelo bastante largo con la venta de su division de juegos.
A ver como acaba esto, pq la verdad puede perjudicar bastante a la continuacion de sagas como diablo, ya ke los juegos nunca han sido iguales sin sus cabezas pensantes en lo alto...

Blizzard Founders Leave Company
June 30, 2003 - According to this Reuters news story; Bill Roper, Erich Schaefer, Max Schaefer and David Brevik all left Blizzard Entertainment to "pursue other opportunities". Here's the poop:
LOS ANGELES, June 30 (Reuters) - The founders of the company that created popular computer game series "Diablo" have left their positions at a unit of game publisher Vivendi Universal Games, the company said in a statement on Monday.
The high-profile departures come at a crucial time for Vivendi Universal Games, which is the object of a possible sale by French media conglomerate Vivendi Universal (NYSE:V - News; Paris:EAUG.PA - News).
In a statement, Blizzard Entertainment said Blizzard North co-founders Erich Schaefer, Max Schaefer and David Brevik, along with a fourth employee, Bill Roper, "resigned from the company to pursue other opportunities."
Blizzard Entertainment, publisher of "Diablo" and "Warcraft," is widely seen in the games industry as one of the most attractive assets of VU Games, which has been languishing on the auction block for months.
