Will we be seeing a return of elixirs from Diablo I or anything similar to oils (which added temporary buffs to items) from Hellfire (even though it was a Sierra product)? How about antidote, thawing and/or stamina potions returning from Diablo II? Basically, what types of potions should we expect, aside from the usual health and mana ones?
A link for those of you whom may not remember some of the aforementioned items.
1. Will blizzard consider tweaking the art style in response to all the complaints? (I for one, would love to see the over zealous armour and overall style turned down a little... maybe not dII... but please eliminate the rainbow...)
5. Any word on system requirements or DX10 support? (Would love to know if i need to upgrade the system)
1. You have to be kidding? They said they would select a FEW questions, you think they will waste a spot for such a childish question? You already know the answer. NO.
2. The game isn't out yet and untill they are near release, you won't know what the specs are. They ALREADY said that DX10 will not be required.
There we go, made room for good questions to ask blizz by taking care of 2 awful ones. Whos next?

I agree. Did you see how I worded mine?
Since the Diablo fanbase is in an uproar about certain aspects of the graphics, namely the contrast levels, shoulderpads, rainbows, and the cute lion statue. What are your opinions on these concerns, and do you have any plans for remedying one or all of them?
This gets them to answer the question with more than a "yes", "no", or "I don't know".
If the Necromancer doesn't make a come back, is Blizzard planning a class who will carry on his legacy and fight to protect the Balance of Sanctuary at Trag'Oul's side.
1. Any decision on classes being carried-over?
2. Are you planning to listen to or consider the rages and rants over graphics and art direction?
3. Any reconsiderations for the Health Orbs?
4. Are the graphics of the game still being worked on? (polishing textures, more next-gen upgrades, etc.)
5. What's your rough estimate of "when it's ready"?
I would have to add onto the questions about a playable demo being released.
I know it will be too far in advance to give us a time period, but could you perhaps let us know when an announcement about a demo would be coming? (Eg. In october we plan to announce the demo)
Will gold be a staple of the economy or will the barter system be the only one in place? In either case, will Blizzard be implementing an auction/barter house for simplifying trades and minimizing spam?

"The gaming public now has focus on Diablo again, and with it comes the modern-age of trolling and jackassery."
3. Since the Witchdoctor has replaced the Necromancer in terms of gameplay, and since the Amazon is a female only character, that makes two Diablo II characters that were removed from the playable classes. Will you be replacing other Diablo II classes with new characters? If so, how many would you like to replace with new characters? And how many different character classes have you all brainstormed over?
I heard that Bliz wanted to have the classes be more distinguiable than before so i dont think you would see the necro at all if that is true (im not 100% just one of many rumors flying around)
i would think as far as the amazon we could see the same character with a different name so you dont feel like your running around as a fairy with a spear/bow if you choose a male amazon. :confused: (Amazon as far as i know is a tough woman that lives in the jungle....kinda makes a amazon guy.....well lack luster)
Will magicfind still be implemented in this game? and if so since you said the bosses will take 2-3 people to take down are you changing loot to world drops instead of each mob being a certain lvl and only those few " prime evils " could drop the items?
So please, anyone knows when will the blizzcast 5 be? Date? (if it's known). Will be grateful, thanks.
BlizzCast doesn't have a specific release date. Episode 4 is the next one on queue. Hopefully this month or the next. These questions will be for BlizzCast 5 which is far ahead in time.
I have some questions:
1: In the gameplay demo video lead designed Jay said that loot will be drooped only player class specific, but in a developer panel the development team said trading will be a huge thing for Diablo 3, so isn't this a little bit contradictory? If loot drops player specific only, how are we going to be able to trade with other classes or will there be 2 different systems of loot drop; 1 for single player and other for multiplayer(battle.net)?
In which i'm guesing the SP will only drop player specific loot but on battle.net loot will drop randomly!?
2: Will each class have its own specific "manalike" orb, like for example barbarian has Fury, Witch Doctor has mana or how will that be?
3: Will there still be "stamina" and if yes it wasn't shown on the UI, sowill it be shown or will that be something of an feeling thing, where you have to assume how much stamina you have left!?

Diablo 3 is graphically and artistically great, there needs to be variety in the game, instead of only plain and dark areas!
+Wouldn't it be better and more interesting if from a sunny beautiful day, mist starts covering the screen, rain starts falling, thunders and lightning striking and it starts to darken, instead of constant dark!?
Not a technical question like most: Will the game be as easy as it appears to be in the gameplay video? The narrator describes various monsters with powerful attacks, but the Barbarian receives minimal damage during these encounters (not counting the last scene).
I find these type of games to be most fun when I'm often near death, and actually have to employ some strategy just to hang on. I also don't care for rapid level-ups and tons of magical loot - it's cool to play with the same setup for a while. That way when you do upgrade weapons/armor/spells it's more rewarding.

at the point where the barb recieves his first set of gear the guy said that the game he was playing was fixed to drop only good items so he could show off the neat features of those items through out the game his drops were all magic (atleast) weapons and gear.
i have a question about the boss battle. at the end of the gameplay video during the boss battle one barb was picked up an had his head bitten off!:O will all bosses have a one hit kill move if you will?

I think it only applies to the mercs and other associates to your main character.

I believe the barb was at a stage area of where a lvl 1 char would be in d2, act1, blood moor, norm. Meaning that it would be super easy for now, and will progress harder as it goes to nm, hell etc.

Couldn't agree more. That's why I've always been excited more about d2 hardcore, even pvm, over pvp @ softcore.

agreed :thumbsup: or they could alter the whole class itself to a straight up archer class with new moves and what not.......eh?
