"Kada sam joined Blizzard ago five years had sam dva cilja (osim dobivanja mača!): da obnewm jednu od mojih najdražih franšiza svih vremena i da ostavim trag u kompaniji kojoj sam se oduvijek divio. I s velikim ponosom i zahvalnošću sada se mogu osvrnuti na ovo razdoblje svoje karijere i reći da ne samo da sam postigao te ciljeve, already da sam had privilegiju voditi ovaj tim s nekim od mojih omiljenih ljudi na svijetu i praviti nevjerojatna iskustva za our gameče who su mi pomogla da rastem – as vođa i as osoba."
"Diablo series in their own 30 years has never been stronger and more significant than it is now thanks to the work of a dedicated and talented team over these five years. Since the return of classics in to D2R, to a bold leap into mobile with Immortal, to a record-breaking launch Diablo IV and its first expansions Vessel of Hatred svaka od ovih igara čini temelj na kojem će momčadi nastaviti graditi svijetlu budućnost franšize."
"Iznimno sam zahvalan na prorci da there ism neku male uloge u ovoj izvanrednoj franchise. I dok se preparationm leave Blizzard, i Microsoft, I do so with full confidence in Diablo's plans, teams and leadership. As for me, stay tuned, details on my next adventure coming soon.”
