Many of these job postings are for upper management positions. Shortly after Blizzards message, we see a significant spike in job postings for the Unannounced Diablo Project \7]). to me this is hinting some internal issues and could very well be a clue to why we didn't see a D4 announcement. It's part of what makes communication on our end so challenging. The community manager Brandy, was asked on twitter why they created the hype video only to temper our expectations 2 weeks before BlizzCon, to what she answered: " There's certainly context the community is lacking. This was a very strange move considering how they had hyped us for a few months. Next Blizzard releases a message \5]) to the fans asking us to temper our expectations. 2 weeks before BlizzCon we also see the cancellation of the 4 part Diablo comics \3]) as well as some delays regarding the book of adria \4]) But it is kind of a funny coincidence that he says his goodbyes 30 minutes before the worst BlizzCon announcement ever made. First we see Mike Morhaime stepping down \2]), though that's probably not related at all. Then 2 weeks before BlizzCon strange things started to happen. So in August I believe Blizzard thought they were going to announce D4 at BlizzCon. Would they have done that if all they had to announce was a mobile game? Sure, they also announced the Switch port, but that announcement came just a few days after the hype video. In August they made a video \1]) to hype us up. It definitely seemed like they were going to announce D4 at this BlizzCon, but something happened last minute. Last updated at 14:00:17 UTC Weekly Help Desk RAGE Loot Thread Trade Thread
