It's nice to see its pretty obvious they realized they fucked up the franchise a bit. Honestly the biggest gripe I have with the game is there isn't enough "reward" into playing the game, and its kind of why people quit. Farming for a whole week and not getting any real items of value is kind of dumb. Why bother playing? I think Blizzard saw too much into making money off the auction house and it kinda screwed up the game a bit.
David Brevik doesn't work for Blizzard, he works at Gazillion on the Marvel MMO. He hasn't worked at Blizzard for a while.
I know but he knows they fucked it up, and its quite obvious Blizzard knows they fucked it up (ie 1.0.4 "legendary" patch). I don't really think that's going to fix the real issue of grinding vs. reward though.
I think a big part of the problem is that gamers in general are tired of re-doing the same shit forever. Blizzard especially like to recycle or reuse tons of stuff, but other companies have started doing it too.

Hey I know Eric Bachour.... he use to play in GC (Xavior, a druid). He just mostly PvPed. He liked to make claims he was "in" with people at Blizzard, guess at the very least he's friends with some of them on Facebook.
