Does anyone know more about the history of Condor and it's original team?
Wiki says Condor was bought by Blizzard nine months before Diablo launched. Then, after Diablo II the team split into two separate companies?
Also, I'm guessing this pitch document was to investors for initial funding. I'm curious to know how much they raised and who from. This doc looks like it came from experienced game devs.
Condor became "Blizzard North" after Blizzard acquired them. They were put in charge of the Diablo series, after Blizzard made a lot of adjustments to it (including the move from turn-based, which we see in this draft, to ARPG).
They were shut down after they failed to produce any progress on Diablo III for years (like I said in another post, Diablo III had been expected for almost a decade before its announcement).
