I honestly don’t believe the dev team building d2 even looked at d1 once they started work on d2. The attitudes and the lack of communication from the dev team that throws this new stuff at us versus the tone of the updates given to us via the live team have a dramatically different feel to them. The live team is based almost 100% around keeping the player base around so they are far more inclined to take feedback directly and be more communicative. The dev team just makes new shit that they hope is interesting. Once it’s out of their hands the live team seems to be left to clean up the aftermath whether it’s good or bad. The live team so far has done a decent job enhancing the good and doing what they can to improve the bad that the dev team is leaving them with especially given how small that live team actually is. The live team is probably the one team at Bungie I’m not worried about.
