Heroes of the Storm designer: ‘I’d change every single hero in the game’

Heroes of the Storm will succeed or fail on the backs of its heroes.

I spoke with game designer Kent-Erik Hagman, who works specifically on hero design, about the process of choosing which characters from the Blizzard Entertainment franchise would be included in Heroes, and how those transformations happened. The company’s new multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) exits open beta and launches tomorrow.
