  Thanks, I did a quick search and found alot from whom should be considered the uber sources of information about Diablo development, David Brevik and Erich Shaeffer. I was just in the trenches for Diablo 2. One thing I remember about the crunch per David's piece on crunch, he neglected to mention that when he gave a speech announcing we would crunch until we finished, and if we finished in time for holiday release that year the entire studio would get a free trip to Las Vegas, or we would get fired. Kelly Johnson, a character artist was standing near me during the meeting and mumbled something under his breath but I don't think anyone thought we would generate the content required for that deadline, but I believe he had to give a speech about it I'm guessing for appearances' sake.
