Jeff Kaplan (Overwatch, World of Warcraft) chats with Ted about Overwatch, quest design in MMOs, the differences between company and team culture, and how playing hours of EverQuest eventually led him to Blizzard Entertainment.

**NOTE: In the episode, Jeff mentions how he believes Reaper is currently the oldest hero in Overwatch. He now correctly remembers it is Reinhardt at 61. :)

Kaplan is the Vice President at Blizzard and Game Director on Overwatch.
