Bashiok seemed to hint today that there will be something to replace runewords. I know they are going to have something to replace the cube. So what do you guys think it is going to be. I really liked the runeword for crafting but i also thought that they were not strong enough. Because when you got to high enough level they to me anyways seem to become useless. So it will be interesting to find out what they have in plan. I hope they announce this at Blizzcon.
He says it here: http://www.diablofans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19039. We've known this for a while- I believe it was mentioned in another interview from somewhere. I'd have to search for a source, in any case. They're probably going to use gems and other socket-fillers for it this round since runes seem to only be affixated to skills.
I just hope they let us know at Blizzcon. If they have it done which i am not sure. But from what he stated today seems they at least are working on it. But what was interesting was the fact that he said there are multiple ways. Or hinted at it
Yeah. I think that would be a good concept- it makes it more diverse. That's something I liked Eastern Sun mod- you had gemwords, runewords, and tons of recipes to keep you busy for untold hours. Those gemwords and runewords could also feature jewels of varying quality, another polynomial.
My bet is in some kind of craft system. Of course a better gem/socket system will be in the game, but we need something to fill the void leaved by the runewords. Creat items from the start is something i like.
Heh, I'm the same way right now, as long as we get some kind of item-customization tool, I'm good.
Maybe they'll ditch runewords, and make crafting better ?
Like being able to attatch certain mods to your items through cubing (or whatever we'll be using to cube) gems/jewels with your gear ? Would lose the gem in the process of course, but I think it could be pretty cool.
Hopefully they'll take some input from the Eastern Sun mod... you could collect special items that drop from certain monsters (hearts, brains, eyes, ect) and cube 3 or so of them with an item to put life/mana/damage or whatever into your item. Each item could do this a max of 50 or so times.
Something along those lines would be great ^^.

there probably will be professions in the game and you could probably craft these legandary items. but runewords broke diablo 2 and were just added cus diablo 2 got old and it was a way of keeping the game alive by giving people these silly over powered items. but you never know.
actually i think runes were added to further their jokes with sierra a bit more
since hellfire also added runes in their exp
blizz prob decided to make their own version of them too
what i would like to see would be a set of just all socket items xD
i think thatd be cool =3
if they added those to replace rune words i think itd be more fun to play around with
and dont go so heavy into sockets
i think any weapon or armor should just get one socket
so its a whether you have the socket or not
it would also make the choice more strategically laid out
so if they did put socket sets
you couldnt make one whole weapon a whole set or something =3
also i dont like the profession idea
diablo is a more fast paced demon hunter kind of game
so its kinda assumed all the chars profession is to hunt demons
plus professions just slow the game down
and well you dont want that in a game thats supposed to be fast paced xD
