{{BlizzCast navbox}}'''Karune:''' What’s up everyone. Welcome back to our third episode of BlizzCast, where we take you behind the scenes into the world of Blizzard. I am your host, known to you guys as Karune on the boards. Today we have an exciting line up of Blizzard developers including [[Dustin Browder]], our lead designer of StarCraft 2, who will give you details of the evolution of Zerg from the original StarCraft to StarCraft II. Following, [[Jeff Kaplan]], our lead designer of World of Warcraft will be giving you insight on how designing raids and dungeons have changed from the original World of Warcraft to the Burning Crusade, and even better, how these changes may unveil into the Wrath of the Lich King. Next, we’ll be talking to [[Joeyray Hall]], our Manager of Video Production, who will be sharing a glimpse into the machinima magic at Blizzard Entertainment. Last, but definitely not least, as introduced in our last series, we’ll be having our community Q&A section, where we’ll be asking devs questions submitted directly from the community.

'''Karune:''' First up, we have Dustin browder. Welcome to the show Dustin!

'''Bornakk:''' Will the dungeon reset timers always match for both versions: 3 day or 7 day?
'''Jeff Kaplan:''' Will the dungeon reset timers always match for both versions: 3 day or 7 day?
'''Bornakk:''' You've talked in the past about how the raid dungeon Naxxramas will be returning in Wrath of the Lich King as a level 80 raid dungeon. Will we see the same stories of the Atiesh and the Corrupted Ashbringer return?
'''Jeff Kaplan:''' We definitely want to continue the story of Ashbringer, it’s one of our favorite things and we actually have a lot of fun with Ashbringer internally so we want to continue that storyline. Whether or not Atiesh exists in its current form or a new form that’s a great question, it’s still undecided. We really want to keep doing Legendary items though, we love the Legendary items we’ve done so far they’re really important to the story of Warcraft as a whole. So I think we’d like to bring back Atiesh at some point but Naxxramas is going to be really exiting. It’s moved over Nothrend now, it’s over a zone called Dragonblight, it’s currently laying siege to one of the Alliance towns there so I think fans are going to be really excited by sort of the return of Naxxramas, one of our best dungeons ever.
'''Bornakk:''' Thanks for all the insight on the dungeon designing. We’ll talk to Jeff again in a little bit to help us with the Q&A section but next up we hand the mic over to Nethaera who is interviewing our Manager of Video Production Joeyrall Hall.
