And guess what caught my eye; the super cheap t-shirts with a clear black frame around the D3 logo :|

I can't see to read anywhere that it's going to be Blizzard Tech. I think they're referring to tech as what part they want to describe. So streaming, voice, or shop.
Personally i I think they're going for Blizzard Net.
Blizznet as short

1: Get an Authenticater.... STAT!
2: Don't use the same password on forums / mail / games = 3 different passwords
3: Don't maniacally click on every link you see!
4: Run an antivirus now and again, Hitmanpro + AVG will keep your PC cleaner than a house full of people with Mysophobia (yes look this one up!)
5: Be wary of any executables, if you're not sure. Google it. Scan it. Ask your mom about it.

7: Profit, sort of. -

The Process- The Diablo team draws a lot of inspiration and even “some direct ideas” from the community and even mentioned specifically some of our “Suggestion” articles that have gained some good popularity
Which ones? -

My God guys, for crying out loud, you don't have to be Einstein to figure this one out. You could have thought about it for a second before posting this sort of comment (or just read my reply).
And even after I read the reply from Lylirra I thought he was wrong (when he said those were the final intended items).
I feel so disappointed with other people sometimes
Since when can't I leave a negative comment about another obvious Blizzard fail? The items suck and there is no way around it.
Preorder bonusses should be an added bonus. To be honest, I would probably salvage the items. They aren't even worth the stash space, and seeing console gets 1.0.7, the items will not have a further use for item modification.
The red wings are awesome though. -

Also see the Rhyker's video, he mentions a D2 remaster quite a lot!

To the ones saying a remastered version would be too hard?

This guy has remade D2 in the Starcraft II engine. It looks AMAZING!

It wasn't hardly my idea though, but I won't lie that I want this to happen!
go find me a thread that isn't confirmation bias when hyping for blizzcon. Don't be such grumpy boring people and at least have some fun discussing possibilities.

Blizzard will announce a Diablo Remastered version at blizzcon 2016.
This is Remastered version will include both the story of Diablo and Diablo II in a new 3D Engine, while generally retaining the gameplay of Diablo II.
Why? For one, because the general audience of the Diablo franchise has no idea what happened before Diablo III. I can argue that these stories were one of the most epic ones ever told in a video game. Personally, I find it a logical decision to get the audience more involved into the story, as we are with Warcraft, and prepare the brand for future releases.
Other hints that were given recently are dead giveaways of this decision. Of which some are shown recently through Twitter and the Blizzcon panel schedule.
Lets talk Twitter first, the guys from Blizzard north suddenly showed up at Blizzard HQ. Coincidence? I hardly think so. This would only make sense when a Remastered version is being worked on, and the first ones to see outside of the company should be the original developers. It's a noble and honorable gesture towards them.
"Diablo 20th Anniversary
Duration: 60 Minutes (Mainstage)
Join the Diablo III development team for a look back on two decades in Sanctuary, and get a first look at our plans to celebrate the occasion."
No Diablo 4, however it could be considered as such.
When looking at the wording, it's the Diablo III team that's working on a new project. Perfectly understandable, who else is better qualified than running a Remastered version in the engine of Diablo III? We are taking a look back at what is being Remastered.
Blizzard has always used GAME: "what's next" to show that there's a new game or expansion being worked on.
"First look", which suggests, it's a relatively large project and that there is more to come.
As said, the audience has just received a glimpse of what the Diablo universe is really about in he latest Diablo installment. I believe that a Remastered version to tell the story of the past is the only route to getting the brand ready for any future releases.
"Diablo Art & Design
Duration: 60 minutes.
Chris Amaral - 3D Modeling, Michael Franchina - Traditional Drawing, Zaven Haroutunian - Design"
It's absolutely not worth talking a full hour about design when it comes to upcoming patches for Diablo III. However, talking about the design and new 3D models in a Remastered Diablo II is critical and most logical panel to have. It is by far the most important aspect of remastering a game.
Other Diablo panel;
"Diablo III - Dev Talk and Q&A
Duration: 60 minutes.
The Diablo III team digs deep into upcoming patches, showcasing new features and epic content making their way into the game in the future. They’ll also answer any burning questions you might have."
This tells me that they have a long lasting patch strategy for Diablo III instead of an expansion. A showcase for what's in store for Diablo the coming year. There would be more panels regarding lore/design/gameplay when a new title(D4) is announced.
Diablo floor map:
Last year, Diablo was somewhat the ignored kid and had a booth the size of a toilet stall (no kidding, look it up!). This year the floor map shows an actual booth with something to play. The booth is too small (less than 50% of any other booth) to showcase anything new. If a new title is shown, even an expansion, with a playable version, the hype train would be real and it would require a much larger booth. Instead, it will
most likely showcase ALL diablo games. In other words, no playable version of the Remastered game is shown on the floor.
What hat are your thoughts? Or better yet, what do you hope that they will announce?

To me it looks like a new expansion is out of the question. Josh M. Said in an interview the game would be a "reaper of patches" or something similar. In hindsight this indicates to me that they weren't working on a new expansion anymore shortly after the game launched. Instead all the so far produced content would be distributed in patches instead. Of course this would lead to the end of Josh M.being he game director, as they need a new vision for a new/reworked game.
I'd go for 1 game that features the whole (and pimped) story or D1/D2 with modern graphics but keeps the classes and systems mostly the same.

I went to Gamescom, hoped for something new. Nope
hoped for a hint or Easter egg in the Diablo games that were available, nope.
Much dissappoint
They did a live artwork of the Diablo II box art though. What does it mean?!

It was the first game I could play hours upon hours on end. To this day, I still think back of our old D2 times and wish Diablo 3 was more like it. Even so, Diablo 3 has a good action rhythm going for it which makes me play it for about 1.5-2 month every season.

Ancient items are properly good for the game, EXCEPT LEADER BOARDS. You're properly skilled and top 10 this season? Lets see how far you can get next season with less ancient furnace luck.
