The Diablo Podcast is a weekly (or more often) podcast produced by The Unofficial Diablo Site, Diablo.IncGamers.com. Hosted by prominent Diablo community member Flux, TDP covers recent news and controversial issues in the Diablo community, features in-depth discussion and debate about game issues, and hosts regular interviews with game developers and members of the Diablo Community.


TDP Episode Guide

Brief summaries of each episode. Click the "view it here" links to see the full news posts and links to grab each episode via iTunes, YouTube, or via the direct mp3 file.


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.

Episode Three

This episode is a listener's guide to Blizzcon, with Flux interviewing Rush, Neinball, Exile, and Dana about their experiences attending past Blizzcons. What's the show like, is it really that big, how bad are the lines and the food, how do they compare to Blizzard's international WWI events, what's it like to be there cheering with everyone else when new games are announced, and more. All covered in great detail in this episode.

Episode Four

This episode opens with half an hour of Flux discussing Blizzard's social media marketing with Wolfpaq777 and DiablosMinion.

Flux speaks with three fans, Exile, Dana, and Neinball, about what it was like to play the demo, which class they chose, if they played on a team, how successful they were, and much more.
