Long awaited, finally here – part 1 of our first Bungie interview of D2!  Jon Weisnewski and Claude Jerome join us to discuss all things about the creation of D2:

• how the new subclasses and weapons like The Wardcliff Coil and Sunshot defined the early vision of the game
• the move to kinetic-energy-power slots and fixed rolls for weapons
• how subclass paths balance accessibility with deep gameplay options
• something game-changing about weapon archetypes that’s been staring us in the face this whole time
• how pacing, teamwork and counterplay made space for new experiences in the Crucible
• also, what’s the deal with High Caliber Rounds?

Y’all, this was such a fun episode. So much good stuff in here. Stay tuned next week for part 2.
