Well, that certainly doesn't apply to me. I only play the game I can recognize. If Diablo becomes something completely different, they can call it all they want, it's not Diablo for me, and if I am going to play it it will be for totally different reasons.
ya just making a point that no matter what type of game it is i would play it and if i didnt like it then i wont play it.
but besides that, i think diablo should be an mmo like guild wars. when you go into a town theres everyone there but when you go into the area where monsters are your with your party of people. and it could still have the hack and slash gameplay.
no im just suggesting that if it is an mmo it should be like guild wars. thats the only mmo i have ever played.
i made ideas for a diablo game. i sorta want it to be in the same view but instead of having like acts. you can go to like the amazon islands. or stuff like that.
They never know until it comes out i mean warcraft coming from RTS to MMORPG was a big risk for blizzard that could have ruined the warcraft franchise. but its turned out to be a great game
no one wants to believe this. they'd rather just stick to denying anything except the original diablo would be nothing above horrible. in my opinion nothing stays the same forever, if they made a new game very similiar to the first two i would get pretty bored pretty quick, beat the game in one night and then do it 9x more times xhowever many more characters u wanna make. people don't realize that making another diablo game would be hard because hacks have always been implemented into diablo's gameplay and especially in diablo 2 it is a big reason why a lot of the people play. i.e. white items in .09 wizzies in .10 etc. i would like to see a game very similiar to d2 just as much as any other diablo player but i don't have the die-hard conservative feel towards the MMO approach. i think both styles have their pros and cons one con of the traditional style is of course doing the same thing over and over again. i think blizzard could do some amazing things with an MMO diablo, anyone who disagrees is just being ignorant. they've proved numerous times that they are exellent at what they do, and if they make another fantasy themed MMO who cares? they made starcraft after warcraft after all... everyone should just quit critisizing and have some faith in the company who has kept us hooked by our balls for years and years to come
Why does everyone think a diablo mmo would be a bad thing
Because we got WoW, LA, EQ, EO, RO, RFO, etc., instead? Why would we want another MMO? What does Diablo has to do with MMO's?

look on the bright side of an diablo mmo a better deeper lore and a more in depth gameplay.
Uh-huh, see above - we got enough of those games with deep lore and in depth gameplay. Now we want a fast-paced grind-fest where we kill demonds in tons upon tons of mouseclicks after a tired day. That is what Diablo is. Otherwise, do not call it Diablo.
What are you two even doing on this forum if you don't want another Diablo?
I don't know if anyone already pointed this out as I don't have time to read through this 17 page thread. But on the job listings, check out the description for 3D Background Artist. They make an unnecessary and specific reference to Diablo and Diablo II.
Quote: "Blizzard, the developer of Diablo and Diablo II, is looking for a..." blah blah blah.
So, why state the obvioius? Like as if someone looking for a job there isn't going to know Blizzard made those games.... unless they have so cleverly and graciously dropped the fanatics (like me) a hint?
Meh, I'm probably reading into it too much. At the rate the hype gets shattered with the anticipated release of a new Diablo, I'd say we should look for it right around the release of DirectX 12.0..... sometime in 2015.

fast-paced grind fest? i don't really think diablo one was very fast-paced, pretty slow gameplay actually, though a lot of clicking is accurate. diablo 2 was more fast-paced though because of the running feature. anyways judging by technical traditional diablo game-play as long as they make monsters in a diablo MMO die quick so that it will be a "fast-paced grind-fest" it'll work eh? since thats all diablo is and all... if thats all you want then why not get on diablo 2, get on a lvled orb sorc and go into normal cows and click away. what are you doing here if you just want another diablo 2? there is much more to diablo than fast-clicking and killing monsters, a true fan would know this very well.

You know what? I think, while Diablo 2 is a fun game, Diablo captured the true spirit of Diablo. Sure, in Diablo 2 you kill a lot of demons. There's some lore. Ok. Now in Diablo, it actually feels like you're decending into Hell, the dungeons get steadily creepier, the music is perfect, the darkness... I like Diablo. But Diablo 2, with no atmosphere, comes down to mad-click fests and a bit of lore.
What would you say the true spirit of Diablo is, Mr. You're-not-a-true-fan?
its obvious diablo 3 will be a mmo. before wow, blizzard made not much money with their games. when they made wow money started pouring in like honey. so they will do the same with diablo 3. it will be a mmo, or it will have a monthly fee anyway. it takes place in heaven so that is a good pretext to have healers in it. i just hope it will be less than 25 mans. 5 man would be better than 6-25 mans.
solo would be perfect but i seriously doubt blizzard will make diablo 3 a solo-game. they probably think like this . the more people are nedeed to kill something the more subscribers they will have. it worked with wow ( there are enough retards out there that dig wow )... so why wouldnt it work with diablo ?
I'm sorry, but I'm laughing so hard inside. They may not have m,ade the kind of maney they're enjoying now, but they still pulled it quite a fair amount of dough. I mean, EB Games still orders and stocks Diablo 2, Starcraft and WCIII battle chests, and has to re-order them. They don't just sit there, they do get sold, and thus they are STILL making a fair chunk of change off of the older games.
The second boded part, what do you mean? Do you mean how many people can go in a game, like Diablo 2 has 8 people? I should hope we don't end up with 25 people all swarming Diablo...
Second paragraph. Why would they not make it solo? If they made it an MMO, like I said, it would be in direct compitition with WoW. Just as a figurative example: 5,000,000 people playing WoW at 15$/month. Diablo 3(MMO) comes out at 15$/month. WoW players go either "Oh look, Diablo! That game rocks!" and jump ship, or they might go "Pff, Diablo, WoW is where it's at" and stay. So nowwe have, as an example:
2,600,000 (Half jump ship, but advertising spillover will bring in a few more)
3,000,000 (Many from WoW jump ship, many new people)
So they make more money, right? Heh heh. Wrong.
Where they had 5,000,000 people playing WoW, they could have 5,500,000 from Blizzard getting good press, and all the people playing WoW, not wanting to pay for 2 MMOs simultaneously, would be happy to pay a one time fee for a good RPG. So now we have:
5,500,000 people playing WoW at 15$/month
3,000,000 people buying Diablo 3 at 60$/person.
100,000 buying Diablo 3 permonth after hype dies away a bit at 45$/box.
Yeah. Two competing MMOs is just so dumb in every possible way.

IT TAKES PLACE IN HEAVEN!! LMFAO HOW ON EARTH WOULD YOU NO?? I seriously doubt it would take place in heaven. Why would they change everythign and were now angels? We will be mortals as always. Mortals dont play in heaven. mortals are on earch descending into hell. Thats how it is and thats how it always will be

The idea of choosing a side is prerty pathedic in my opinion. Why would they change it to the mortal relm to heaven are hell? 2 games we are mortals going down into hell and destroying diablo. I no the change in that would probably be fun but I still think we should descent deeper into hell and kill diablo in the 3rd game

No offense to you but if Blizzard made diablo a TBS I would boycott. that said I would still play it once just so I could say I had tried it.
but besides that, i think diablo should be an mmo like guild wars. when you go into a town theres everyone there but when you go into the area where monsters are your with your party of people. and it could still have the hack and slash gameplay.
