Sure blizzard killed the Diablo series by taking the "scare" factor out of the game, but are they also taking hardcore mode out?
Watching the gameplay trailer, and seeing the bosses 1 HIT KO people, it makes me think that it would be very rare to survive the first act without dying.
They have noted that they see no reason for HC to be left out of the game. Furthermore we don't know the circumstances for those "fatalities" and whether or not they were truly one hit or not.

Dammit blizzard, dammit.
Scare factor? since when has diablo been scary in any way?
and i really hope they do keep HC mode, or i'll get bored of the game quite fast.

Assuming someone actually got 1 hit KO'd, the demo was scripted to show off some cool features of the game. Obviously if you are playing, you won't randomly be massacred by a boss like that. And they have said they would love to bring HC back, but that that is a decision to be made closer to the release. It will probably come back.

Why can't a heterosexual guy tell a heterosexual guy that he thinks his booty is fly?
A) Watching a legion of ghouls rush towards you climbing up walls just to get to you is scarier than the den of evil
The two deaths in the demo were probably scripted - being trampled on or eaten probably won't happen unless you're really low health

Ranger - Ranged Weapon Mastery (fire a bow or javelins like a machine gun!), Traps (MK style!), Pets (lions, tigers, and bears oh my!) - physical damage based
Demonologist - Bone Spells (Necro style!), Avatar (shapeshift into a demon!), Furies (evil spirits that hang around you, giving party bonuses) - mix of physical damage and magic
LEAP ATTACK!!!!! PLAGUE OF TOADS!!!!!
SLOW TIME!!!!!
Every bit of this has been discussed to death already. Are you so lazy you can't search the other threads first before posting? This is just another thread laying the grounds for yet another flamewar. Someone please close?

heres my problems atm :
First of all, No the boss kills were not scripted. I can imagine thats the kind of new things that Diablo 3 will implement which is awesome if you ask me... But what i am really concerned about is how will that affect hardcore because if that is not an option then Im out like many others.
as far as the legion of ghouls running up the walls, it looks gay. Looks more annoying then fun. I am just disappointed really in all the small things about the game for example...
when shit dies, there is no death animation like in the previous diablos, instead now the corpses blow up into peices and everything looks "arcade"- like.
Health orbs? blizzard your fucking stupid.. everyone knows thats fucking lame, what is this? Gauntlet legends or some shit
Inventory space? blizzard your fucking stupid. The reason people loved all three of your games (warcraft, diablo, and starcraft) was because they were all different and unique. A potion is the same size as a 2-hander? gofukyaself
All character models looks fucking lame! I am not going to say they look like WOW or W3, but cmon guys. I WANT EVERYONE TO POP IN D2 AND TELL ME THAT GAME DOES NOT LOOK BETTER.
People posted, none of the diablo's scared you? Turn the volume up and disable the maphacks so you can see the light radius and tell me you dont get goosebumps when you hear something scurrying around in the darkness.

THEY KILLED DIABLO, STOP DEFENDING IT
Calm the hell down, and no, Diablo wasnt fucking scary. I barely ever used maphack, how pitiful can you be to actually be scared when playing a game? How old are you? 10?

"And the Evil that was once vanquished shall rise anew! Wrapped in the guise of man shall he walk amongst the innocent, and terror shall consume they that dwell upon the earth! The sky shall rain fire, and the seas will become as blood! The righteous shall fall before the wicked, and the lord of creation shall tremble before the burning standards of Hell!"

Whoa, cowboy. Are movies not at all scary to you? Do you outgrow horrow movies/books when you hit 11? Video games can be scary/creepy when done right.
Not that I'm agreeing with the OP, mind you, just saying... chill with the hatred.
