'Warcraft' is going to be a period of my life I treasure and loathe at the same time.

The feeling that makes 'Warcraft' work as a game is that feeling that heroism can come out of anything or anyone.

One of the things I think is unique and signature about Blizzard is that whenever they do their games, and with 'Warcraft' in particular, they take the things they love and put a twist on it. They showed that heroes can come from the most unexpected places, and as a player, you can play as a hero, on all sides.

I'm a huge gamer! I love playing 'World of Warcraft.' It helps me wind down and escape reality for a few.

I certainly knew of 'World of Warcraft'; I had never actually played because I knew that if I started playing, I would never get any work done - because it would just totally absorb me.

I think 'World of Warcraft' shows that people today still like a good fantasy hack and slash game. I always thought that a lot of computer fantasy games leapt into complex party-based play somewhat prematurely.

I have to work with the team at Blizzard and the producers on the film and convince them that, as a fan, I have a unique and hopefully entertaining way of taking people through the first contact story, which is really what sets up 'Warcraft' for everyone else.

'Minecraft' certainly became a huge hit, and people are telling me it's changed games. I never meant for it to do either. It's certainly flattering, and to gradually get thrust into some kind of public spotlight is interesting.

'Warcraft' has always had a far higher percentage of women players than a lot of other games. It has always been a very welcoming environment for women.

I have to avoid things like 'World of Warcraft' or 'Minecraft', otherwise I'd never get any work done.
