Do you find it difficult to slip the fact that you conquered a certain titular
Lord of Terror into your daily conversations? Feel insecure when bragging about your latest successful
Zerg Rush to your colleagues? Blizzard's got your back -- in a recent interview with MTV Multiplayer,
World of Warcraft lead designer Jeff Kaplan revealed that
there will be achievements in Blizzard's next two highly anticipated projects,
Diablo III and
Starcraft II.
These achievements will join the
recently revealed achievements for WoW (which will make their debut with the
Wrath of the Lich King expansion) -- however, Kaplan revealed that eventually, achievements from the three games will be linked to your Blizzard account, forming a "Blizzard Level". Kaplan likened the system to the Xbox Live gamerscore -- only without all the embarrassment one must suffer after earning 780 points from
Pimp My Ride.
