Wow....
Remember Old School Ultima Online
Sure it worth the look... it is one big WOW!!!
If I could go to work and have surroundings like that I'd be the happiest person ever. For my 10 year 'prize' I got a pay cut. Maybe it's not too late to go back to school for game design
Most certainly is, what an amazing place to work.

Geek heaven
That has to be one the the coolest places to work ever.

Yeah, Blizzard only cares about the money=) To all the haters out there, let me explain something about work place atmosphere, since I've worked in many a studio. If Blizzard didn't REALLY care about making the best games they can, the work place would look NOTHING like this. If would be grey walls, cubes and nothing more. Its called work-life and companies that actually CARE about their associates go to great lengths to make the work place enjoyable and a place that advances creativity. I currently work in such a place. If Blizzard only cared about the $, they wouldn't bother spending all that money on their studio. Go compare this to a studio in Korea that pushes out F2P cash shops and I just bet you'll notice a difference.
Totally agree with you mate. This studio is like something from fairy tales. It has everything in it. I bet every employee goes to work with a smile on his/her face not only for the $ they get, just for the enviorment.
That's one impressive workplace! I can imagine how sweet it must feel to wake up knowing you're heading to the holy grail of gamers to put in your eight. I'd love to take my family there for an official tour one day. I have a small company in the building I guard that I think the world of. They keep their kitchen stocked full of goodies for their employees and take company sponsored trips to sporting events to show their employees how much they are appreciated.
And that level of respect for one's workers always shows in the effort they deliver to you. Kudos to the execs at Blizzard to maintain and fight to keep the level of quality for both their employees and their customers.
