Pretty sure the announcement cinematic was just a trailer. It had fragments and scenes from the completed introduction cinematic. They just mashed up a trailer (you know, like any movie does?) so we get a glimps. I'm 100% sure that we will see the full version when you launch the game.
Whatever the reason for it is, storyline wise; the D2 trailer has a VASTLY different STYLE than the D3 one.
By "makes sense" in that last post I was talking about how the style/mood of each trailer fit what was happening in each point of the story. I suppose it was a bad choice of wording since previously we were using "makes sense" in regards to plot instead of style.
Basically I was just saying of course they have vastly different styles, just look at what's happening in the story.
Again, I would consider both of them to be quite good, but it's based mostly on the connection to Diablo's plot/setting. If I were a newcomer to the franchise I probably wouldn't be all that interested based on the trailers.
So far outta everything ive seen in D3 bliz north is 10000000 times better then the new crew
First of all, thats a load of crap, and you know it.
Second, many of the devs from Blizzard North were given relocation packages and moved to HQ. It's not that they were in a different building that they had their own style and way of doing things. They still reported to Blizz HQ. Even blizzard said they didn't see any difference between the two and always considered BN to be part of the whole.
Anyways, I hate ignorant posts like that. It's clear to anyone that they've come a LONG WAY since the D2 days. D3 looks fantastic.
My whole point is really just as simple as:
The so-called `reasons' for the new style are only `excuses' given to the fans of the old style.
I don't know that I'd call them excuses, more like reasons or explanations. But of course even given that reasoning, it doesn't mean people have any obligation to like it.
People should approach the complainers with understanding; we are talking about opinions.
Most definitely.:thumbsup:
In fact, that kind of thing is part of why I like the Diablofans forums so much better than gamefaqs or similar sites. The community here seems to be better about that. Not perfect, but much better. It's always annoying to see on gamefaqs everyone flaming someone just for having a different opinion or being less informed on the game's news.
But on the other hand, while everyone is free to express their feelings on the franchise, people should stop actually >complaining<, because the change in style has already been made; Blizz took their route and you got to accept it.
So long as people do it in a civil matter, I've got no problem with them complaining about their various disappointments. I figure they can discus whatever they feel like about the game so long as they put in an appropriate topic to avoid going way off topic. Speaking of off topic, I'm afraid I have gotten a bit off from the original topic in my last two paragraphs, so I'll stop now.:P
