NARRATIVE DESIGNER
Diablo IV is a 3D ARPG MMO set in a brutally unforgiving dark fantasy world. Sins of the Horadrim is its ninth season.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Though S9 was smaller in scope than any of the other Diablo projects I’ve worked on, it was unique in that I was its sole Narrative Designer from start to finish. I was the one making story decisions and guiding the development of narrative content from preproduction all the way to ship date and after.
- Pitch and develop S9’s main quest story and characters.
- Write and iterate on dialogue for S9’s main quest with a focus on emotion, motivation, pacing, tone, and clarity.
- Act as the sole narrative point of contact for S9 story questions. Collaborate with both directors and fellow coworkers to represent S9’s story goals and needs.
- Collaborate with partners in Products to provide feedback on out-of-game content, including a short story and a webcomic.
- Diagnose and fix narrative bugs across the main quest.
