Hier sind es wenige Fragen und diese gehen meist um Blizzard selbst und sind leider nicht so interessant.
Etwas interessanter ist dieses:

Also im Grunde auch nichts neues. Und was die Beta betrifft hat Frank Pearce sich genauso ausgedrückt wie in einem anderen Interview, das sie angeblich noch nicht wissen wie die Beta aussehen soll.Crispy Gamer: Is the online community element something that you're thinking about adding to Battle.Net?
Pearce: It's something we're talking about. We've got such a big community surrounding StarCraft. There's a big community surrounding World of Warcraft and there's a big Blizzard community in general, and we would definitely like to do more with that.
Crispy Gamer: Are you looking at Steam as something like -- not just downloading games through Battle.Net -- but the community as well?
Pearce: It's really interesting, and we've been looking at Steam even before they brought those features in.
Crispy Gamer: What about plans for an open beta for StarCraft II?
Pearce: A beta is very important from the perspective of getting feedback from the community and continuing that process of iteration. A beta is something that we're very likely going to need to host. But we haven't made any determination whether we're going to have to host a closed beta or an open beta, or both yet.
Was den Steam angeht so weiss ich eigentlich nur, das dieses nötig war um Spiele zu downloaden und/oder Half Life2 zu starten. Was das mit einer Community zu tun haben könnte habe ich leider keinen Dunst. Kann mir das einer erklären?
