The hype will remain after May 1 with more strength than in the past seven years. That you can bet. Again, we are not announcing the next Diablo game. But after May 1, the real hype begins ... because on top of May 1's thing ... there still exists that intriguing June 29 coincidence:

June 29, 2008 - Blizzard Worldwide Invitational Ends
June 29, 2001 - Lord of Destruction Ships on Europe
June 29, 2000 - Diablo II Ships on USA

And even if nothing gets announced on WWI ... May 1's thing surely will keep everyone on their toes awaiting an official announcement. By the way, just finished Day 2's banner. Some people will need diapers. lol.

Is this whole announcement going to be like?:

Blizzard will release new content for Diablo 2, before we announce a sequel to the award winning Diablo franchise.

So the announcement on May, we find out Diablo 3 WILL be a sequel + we can expect Diablo 2 content to hold us off untill the announcement and beyond.

And I believe Day 2 or 1, will be about Belial or Azmodan, or a different sanctuary, or the creator of sanctuary.

:O:O:O Edit: Everything gets changed to WORLDS of Sanctuary! Excellent

Read if you want to take part in helping me become a better person.

I intened to post a hugh rant about this but I chose not too.

I am going through a rough time with my parents, school and such.

But what I am here to ask is:

What is better for me, or just better in general.

Having a way to escape the world, and play World of Warcraft where I can do anything I ever wanted, with no limits, and just plain have fun.
* But sacrifice social life *

Or beat addiction and never play WoW again, go to parties, and do dumb shit that would harm me, or be involved with the wrong people.

----My backround info----

I have many friends, and im part of the popular click. But when
I had WoW, I did not want to go chill with people, and I stayed in the house much more then I would go out. I am 15 btw

Since I havent had WoW for 5 months, I am always out of the house, but I am slowly falling. I had quit smoking, now I smoke whenever I am with smoker friends. I do Marjuana atleast a few times every 2 weeks.

And I do not know what to do. If I had WoW I wouldnt be doing any smoking.

dude i know excactly what your going through. trying to change my ways of life. and trying to be social. been playing diablo for years and gave up on hanging with friends after a certian incident. (stayed out till 5 without my mom knowing were i was when i was 14-15). but know im trying to get back to social life. but its hard when all your friends live over 30 minutes car drive. and the ones that are close are usually non reachable. but im still trying.

for you i would say go social life way. play wow here and there when you got nothing to do. and have fun.

I appreciate your post Ferret, and all who post here with constructive post, on how to help me, or may help others reading.

thnx for making this thread. it really helped me out. thnx ferret for the long informative post.:D

Ok, so it's addicting. Well, we shouldn't eat suger then either, because sugar also generates an addicting effect. Ban Coke and candy!

What BBC shows is far from the truth of the general public. It is one individual amongst many. This kid wouldn't be "normal" had he never played World of Warcraft, the reason he gets stuck so much is because something in his life isn't as satisfactory as for most other people. Perhaps his dad died when he was young, perhaps he hates his mother, perhaps he gets bullied, whatever. The reason anyone plays WoW excessively is because they feel it's rewarding, and anyone playing it too much cannot get that rewarding feeling outside of the game to the same extent as people who manage to keep their playing down. That's one reason I think, the other being that sometimes you start to feel an obligation to hepl your guild, even though it isn't very fun at all times. Which in essence "forces" you play in order not to get kicked from the guild.

WorldRaider - And, Cant you give us 1 more hint towards what is in the patch?
I don't know about anything else besides No-CD. Maybe there is more, maybe there isn't. I have to wait too to find out.

WorldRaider - Also, did we reach the 2k extra downloads for Blizzcast?
And do you know anything about the interview?
I never said how many downloads were needed. 2k is wrong number. I do know Chris Metzen is one out of four developers to be interviewed in BlizzCast episode 2. As for the answer ... Surpassed. =)

WorldRaider - Medievaldragon, did you know about the Blizzard games that did not hit the shelves?
Yea I read various D.I.C.E. Coverage news. Ghost isn't there, and strangely Diablo II: Salvation wasn't either.

Ask him how he feels about writing books about a dead video game.

Okay, so I've dedicated a forum to making predictions. I'm going to gather all of the information from Diablo II storyline and see what we can conclude. This is of course, if Diablo III is a sequel. Some think it may be a Prequel, and I am one of those people. Anyway, so here it goes. Correct me if I'm wrong anywhere.

At the end of Diablo the Warrior Class defeated Diablo. To prevent Diablo from ever returning again, he thrust the Soulstone into his head, attempting to cage Diablo's soul inside of him. After a while he started to lose control and Diablo overtook him.

The Hero of Diablo II attempts to kill "The Wanderer." He encounters him outside Kurast but is unable to stop him. The Wanderer continues and Mephisto gives him his true and permanent form. The hero then continues and kills Mephisto, takes the Soulstone and destroys it at the Hellforge. The same happens to Diablo and Baal.

After defeating Baal, Tyrael come and destroys the Worldstone. Before doing this he says: "... By destroying the Worldstone, demons will be able enter Sanctuary." This is a good argument that Diablo II will be a sequel and that there is hope for a Diablo III.

Anyway, I know it's very basic but that's the main overview.

Well as you all know, there are many dumb people on this forum. Some claim they work for Blizzard. Some claim their friends freind works for Blizzard. Others are stupid in all their posts. Others are just annoying. Some dont take the time to see if then have used proper spelling or sentence structure, and the person I will alienate right now is a person Ive been having a growing problem with. Fudlow and I have have given him the loving name on WoW of zub.

Zubin is a member here that has been with us for a while. However for as long as he has been here, he has really done all he can to post, not necessarily important information, ideas, or just put his two cents in. He is notorious for his mindless posts and lack of spelling or sentence structure.

I addressed this with Zubin kindly, and he took offense. Therefore he went to some website, and made a new signature. I was unable to copy that for your viewing pleasure, but it went along the lines that people who are frustrated at others is because they are frustrated at themselves. I know as well as him why he put that as his signature. he merely deleted the paragragh and kept the second part, which i did copy. During the exchange he (as well as so many others) asked a stupid question, a question that could have been avoided by paying attention to the message, or just simply looking back at his saved messages. I told him he would earn a spot on a thread, hosted by myself, and i congratulated him. Here, is what his sig was after deleted the entire paragraph of mumbo-jumbo:
