well meh teh graphics... but if gameplay will suck then it will be realy bad
What the hell are meaty graphics?
No it won't suck... all you people are just really paranoid and worried. You are all acting like Blizzard is pregnant with your baby and started painting the room blue when you are absolutely certain its a girl and the room needs to be pink.
After checking back in here to Diablo fans a dozen or so times I think it's pretty clear what a lot of the posts are about.
A lot of die hard Diablo fans are pissed that Blizzard North was a political sacrificial lamb (how else does a division lose it's baby?) and will not continue the legacy they started while Blizzard Irvine and their foo foo anime got it's grubby little hands on it (I smell a rat) and is WOW'ing it to death. So we (meaning who are not happy with the colors) all check in to see if we can learn how badly they are abusing our favorite game with some kind of Pokemon evil plot.
Mean time die hard WOW (which I do not play) fans who may have played too much WOW want something different yet WOW'ish and are thrilled to see a game that will give them something WOW-fresh to play in between there WOW conquests.
So it goes, of course I'm having a little fun in my post here throwing jabs but despite the embellishment it is probably not too far from the truth. OMG! Diablo has possessed all at Blizzard Irvine and is destroying the game with WOW magic!!! ROLMAO!
I would just say WoW and you would say "so and so many people play WoW and its the best MMO etc. etc." so i wont say that directly.
From what everyone says, WoW screwed the story of WC. Dont know what else, but well think about the story of Diablo and how pissed you would if they screw it in some way. Like turning it into a MMO where you choose Heaven, Hell or Sanctuary.
We always protected sanctuary in the previous games, doing that or something in those lines would probably mess the story up pretty much.
Just an example.
Bottom line, WoW wasnt a bad game, but they turned the wonderful story of WC into a bad one with it.
Oh and also, there are many people who liked WoW so much because it was a RTS game. You would now say "go play SC" but thats a whole different world.
My cousin -as an example- hates WoW (and i think DotA) because he was a hardcore WC3 strategy player. Two years ago, when we last visited him, he was still playing WC3 over Battle.net and owning some noob.
This I can agree with
I mean, sure, Blizz is a really good company who have make loads of good game thus far.....but no one is incorruptable. I just hope WoW won't be the reason behind the death of their other franchises.
Edit: Blizzard South and Californians in general are the harbingers of the decline of original content.
Edit 2: Their hippocracy no knows ends, WoW was a blatant copy of Everquest, and yet they're making excuses that they don't want Diablo to look like Gears of War, the ARMOR MAKES IT LOOK LIKE GEARS OF WAR.

What will you do if you don't like Diablo 3 after you buy it? An interview recently came out (MD has yet to post it) that states Blizzards art department won't change the art style. This has ruined my day. Even though they wont change it to my liking, I will still buy it.
However, in all seriousness, if I feel let down by SC2 and D3, I will never buy a Blizzard game again.

What if the world blew up tomorrow!
What if there really was a 2nd coming!
What if the Spears sisters stopped being sluts!
What if Bush was a smart guy!
What if....
What if.......
WHAT IF!!!!!!
Lol, no way to tell whether a game is going to bomb or not. Hellgate looked like a good game, and then it was released.
Currently at the moment It looks like it will suck big time. But you never know. Gameplay could make up for WoWs art style. But considering your constantly looking at it, it may not.
I like the games being refreshing from eachother. So if its WoW 1.5 with a new gameplay style I think I will just play starcraft 2 and wait for warcraft 4.

If you get personally attacked by letters through the internet its a good thing to always have a box of tissues and a band-aid around.
What will you do if you don't like Diablo 3 after you buy it? An interview recently came out (MD has yet to post it) that states Blizzards art department won't change the art style. This has ruined my day. Even though they wont change it to my liking, I will still buy it.

I would probably (respectfully) create a thread or reply to a thread to address the issues that concerned me. That way I can get a feel of how other players are responding to the same concerns. Isn't that a primary reason for forums?
I'm not going into the D3 game with the attitude that it just might suck. I take that risk with every game I buy, even if I've played the demo version where one is available.
I have enjoyed playing all the games I own that carry the Blizzard TM. I have no honest reason to believe that Blizzard is going to drop a turd in my hands. I can't answer for the WoW game since I've never played it; but I am aware that a lot of the utter distaste for anything WoW to be used for D3 is that pitiful emotion we call jealousy. D2, and apparantly D3 as well, were placed on back burners which many seemed to believe was because they only had time for WoW. Perhaps that is true, but it seems that they have also had a lot of administrative and personnel changes and reorganizations during all this time, which tends to also take a toll on product upgrades and project advancements. Also, how much did technology (hardware and software) advance between the making of D2:LOD and now?
And, for all you really paranoid and narrow-minded individuals who like to pretend that you won't buy it if...
I don't think D3 will be a bust. I also don't think that, even if it was, it would deter me from ever buying another Blizzard game. If you don't like the possibility of being disappointed by a game then don't buy it; but, do stop using "I won't buy it if..." as a threat - that's just childish.
I didn't expect them to, no doubt they are too far into development to change most of it. Corporations which get big have a tendency of losing touch with their customer base after getting drunk on success.
I'm not rejoicing but I have begrudgingly accepted we will be fighting in the 100 acre woods against possessed demonic heffalump's. I pray the game play video is the exception and not the rule.
If the reviews are good I’ll likely buy it, but Blizzard should pay attention close to what its core customers are saying now or they will find they will have lost us when D4 comes out. No doubt they will find a new breed of customer that does like it but they will have still lost out on loyal fan base looking to new games more in line with the complaints leveled here.
D3 won't suck. Blizzard will spend 80 years working on a game until it at least is beyond the level of "suck". They take their time and make sure the game is good before they release it every time. And if it never reaches the level of goodness required it gets dumped like a Starcraft: GHOST game.

What IF YOU die the day before it comes out?
They do, however, have a knack for turning good games into bad ones.
Words I hate in Gaming Culture:
Epic
Hardcore
E-Sports
Example please?
dont do that... My heart stopped for a second there.
I can see thousands of Dfans gettin real paranoid from your post, heh heh/:P
This I can agree with

‘I'M NOT LEAVING UNTIL WE ALL HAVE AIDS!’—The importance of calling them ‘mercenaries.’
It's official : Art direction isn't changing.
No more What If's. Diablo fans rejoice!

That’s just reality
