Diablo III
New game which has been announced by Blizzard today.
Looks impressive. I was an avid DiabloII player, but ended up playing Warcraft. Was sort of hoping that the new Warcraft expansion was getting a release date announced, but still! http://eu.blizzard.com/diablo3/ http://www.mmo-champion.com/index.php |
Going to be sick.

Wish I could go back in time and invest in Activision before Blizzard released WoW.. That, and this would have made me a millionaire.
|
I got a bit stiff in the pants after watching the gameplay trailer.
I just wonder how much of a time difference Starcraft 2 will be compared to Diablo 3 with their releases. |
Are the zones not gonna be randomized anymore? That made Diablo interesting for me.
|
Wow, honestly didn't care about the game until I watched the gameplay video. Holy crap that looks amazingly fun. At the end when the boss picks up one of the guys and bites him in half.. awesome.
|
Was watching the stream when they announced it this morning. I immediately cast level 20 jizz storm on my surroundings.
Apparently Rob Pardo, one of the designers who was interviewed by ign, said their team liked to announce games roughly 1-1.5 years before release, so should be out by end of next year. Lot of rumors claim the game may actually release before SC2. DAMNIT I WANNA PLAY IT NOWZZZZZZZZZZZ |
whoo still randomized
|
Oh fuck yes, I am jizzing right now.

According to Gamespot.com, and I swear to you I looked at this twice. The release date for Diablo III is......
12/31/08 PRETTY SURE I'M GONNA FAINT IF THIS IS TRUE |
Not true. They wouldn't announce a release date the same time they announce the game is in development. And the date on Gamespot now is back to TBA.
Was most likely just a default date. |
Yeah, a lot of companies [Amazon/Play.com] etc have to put what they would think is a release date by all accounts, so it gives people the right to Pre-Order, think its illegal otherwise
|
Wonder if we'll see it on console

Yeah, I think it'll have to be, crazy cash cow.
Speaking of cows... Perhaps we'll see a Diablo III cow level :D |
I don't think it will go to console. If it does, I doubt you would see a port until at least several years after the PC release.
|
Diablo II is probably in my top 3 favorite games of all time, so yeah. I'm excited.

Being the big Diablo fan that I am, I have been a bit upset at some of the fan backlash to the amount of color in the initial released gameplay video. People get too up in arms over things like that...especially when it only shows like 2 or 3 areas in a game that takes place 20 years after Diablo II, in which the world has gone back to normal.
|
Not to mention that the guy who released the 'edited' images to show what the fans want just took the same images, decreased the gamma and saturation and saved them. I like the graphics how they have them, tbh. If it didn't have the gore I'd be pissed but the barbarian was brutalizing those schmucks and leaving a wave of blood and guts behind.
And as for the game being 20 years later, I am calling this now. Tyrael will be the bad guy by the end of the game. |
The little comments they have had about Deckard Cain make it sound like he might go crazy too. I'm intrigued.
|
Deckard Cain is Diablos Mom. It's true, don't ask me how, but it is.

Nice pics, I can't wait for this to finally be released.
|
I'm excited probably more than anybody on here (I'm sure I'd have plenty of people contest that), but its still a long way away. Something really exciting to look forward to though.
|
Me want. When is it due?

I doubt very seriously if its coming by then. Blizzard haven't even released the beta for Starcraft II yet, which is much farther along in its development. I mean Blizzard hasn't even announced the other two playable classes yet. I honestly don't see it until dropping until Mid-Late 2010...if we're lucky. I would love to be wrong about that.
|
I wouldn't mind if it were that long, that way I'm out of school by a mile and it won't hurt my grades.
|
Blizzard takes forever to do anything
|
I wish this game wasn't taking them so long to make, it'll be awesome when it's finally released.
|
They might take forever, but it's always worth it. No other gaming company can compare with Blizzard in the last 15 years, imo. Even Rock n Roll Racing and The Lost Vikings were excellent games in the SNES years.

Was unsure to bump up this old thread or just make a new one due to how long of time passed between announcements but a bunch of Diablo III news was released by Blizzard.
The game will have an in-game auction house similar to World of Warcraft with one auction house allowing real money to be spent for in-game items and another auction house allowing in-game currency and items to be spent for other items. Also revealed was the game will require constant internet connection in order to play the game ("Always On" connection). Blizzard says the reason is meant as a way to preventing hacking or minimize it and because of how the game uses Battle.net at all times. http://gamrfeed.vgchartz.com/story/8...oney-auctions/ The beta for the game is still set to arrive between later this year to early next year with initial reports say the game feels and plays just like classic Diablo but with all the flexibility of modern MMOs. http://kotaku.com/5825582/diablo-iii Finally, to combat hacking and illegal playing of the game due to the new auction houses, all mods will not be allowed at all for the game.

Forced connection at all times, AND microtransactions for in-game items? What a bunch of horse shit. I will not buy this game. I will, however, pirate the fuck out of it once someone cracks it to make it playable offline.

And playing Diablo solo isn't nearly as fun, so have fun pirating it. No LAN support, at least from Blizzard anyway. |
