Well yes they most of their customers are the casuals.. just look at what wow have become.It sucks that Blizzard always think so much about the random retard, but never about the skilled player.
Nice notice. I think only way runes should be in game is this type of thing. No more full runeword items, but power up your existing ones and maybe with right combination you could get some sort of bonus(not too OP tho)Quote from "pernunz" »Just saw that there was a "minor lethality rune"
I think runes will work in the same way as gems, and there will possibly be runeword or rune-gem word comibinations, but they won't be so biased towards the high-skill players.
Instead of the 30 something runes there were, now we have ones like lethality, vitality, power, and varying levels of this; minor, moderate, mega (or something)
Lethality might be the equivalent of bleeding/open wounds in D2
Vitality might be life steal in a weapon, +vitality in a helmet etc.
Power Power Lethality might be something, but depending on the strengths of the runes used, will depend on the effectiveness of the runeword.
Also just saw the final boss in the demo dropped an Amulet. Maybe medallions are what charms have become
I can answer that. They said there will still be potions but there might be some sort of cooldown, not yet decided. Potions are now more like an emergency rarther than you drink them all the time. No idea about the mana tho.I've been wondering about this for a while and haven't seen an answer anywhere. With the new hotbar design and the red orbs for health; does this mean there WON'T be potions anymore? I have two arguments..
Yeyey just play D2 if u want D3 to be so much alike it.. rest of us can go to D3 and we don't have to worry about your whines in there.Quote from "Djinn_690" »now I'm totally depressed!
blizzard is taking out the heart and soul of diablo 3 and replacing it with one from WoW.
the art direction is WoW-ish, when i paused the gameplay video over the skills it looked like the 20 skill tab on the D2 skill tree has been replaced by some WoW-like skill system.
and now the PvP aspect of the game seems like its going to lean more towards a WoW-ish view rather than a Diablo view.... WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU BLIZZARD!!! (sorry but I'm seriously frustrated)
What made the Diablo series so great was that it kept you excited, and the PvP system was one of the most exciting aspects of Diablo. knowing that you could be killed by someone at any moment is part of the fun and it kept people involved with the game.
if u didnt want that, u could always make a password proteced game or put a level tab on ur game... easy as that!!!!
The Diablo II skill tree was one of the best damn things that ever happened to the Diablo games. because of it we where able to have many many builds of the same class, the builds seemed infinite. they where certaintly much more than anything the WoW skill system offered.
And the art, NO BLIZZARD ITS NOT JUST MUSIC THAT GIVES DIABLO ITS DARK FEEL!!! music is a huge factor in the equation but even more importantly is the color scheme. NICE COLORFUL RAINBOWS DONT FEEL LIKE "DIABLO" AT ALL!!!! no matter how eerie the music playing in the background is.
Blizz needs to take their heads out of WoW's ass and look into Diablo's instead!!!
P.S please excuse me for my language but I think I have the right to be mad as I am a "Diablo" fan who has been waiting for this game to come out for 8 years!!! and seeing them turn this game to something more of a non MMO WoW game is just disgusting to me!!
Some people have 5 accounts in wow and pay 5x per month in order to multibox (play simultaniously with 5 characters) many times they also put up 5 different computers so it runs smoothly. (compared to 5x wow on 1 computer)Quote from "sonicpld" »this is my point ...
in the past - i had 11 copies of D2 ... ( i buy them all ),
and i play simultaneusly with them on my PC's in home ( 3 PC under linux, with some diablos running on each of them ).
well - this was a greath fun , and greath time .. anyway - i wonldnt pay 4 play for sure ...
how much i should pay for 11 D3 every month ? - ROFL ...
Let Blizzard make their minds - beter sell D3 prety high , than every month pay for play !
if they wish some money ( greedy - let make it - something like 5$ at YEAR - i wont spend more for it ! )

Beta test means.. testing of a complete product to find bugs. What good is to test act1 and 2 only and leave everything else untested.. the developers can't test it all. Having 100 000 volunteers to test and report your game is pretty much time saved from final testing process.
But good luck living in your dream world.

And when did blizzard release a product every year?
http://www.diablofans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20855
So how you think they will release it this year because SC2 is soon in beta, D3 is no where near beta.. battle.net 2 isn't finished... SC2 will be released in 2010

Few points
1) They said long ago that Battle.net 2 will be released with Starcraft 2 and SC2 will be the first game to launch with the new battle.net. Which directly means that SC2 will come out before Diablo 3.
2) They announced that SC2 will delay because of Battle.net 2 delays to 2010. It was originally planned to launch late 2009 probably. So we have our first hint of an actual release year for SC2 and battle.net 2. 2010 first half probably. This means that Diablo 3 cannot come out before 2010 second half most likely.
3) Looking what they announced in Bliizconn 2009 it seems that many things are undone in Diablo 3 which basically means the release date might go as far as mid 2011 or late 2011.

2 part video containing some screenshots of battle.net 2.0, it's all about starcraft 2 but you get some picture of the features D3 might also get to see in battle.net 2.0 (achievements, friendslist etc)

Lol just look at the videos.. bodies exploding into pieces, blood everywhere..
This isn't a Postal game anyways.. where the main point is as much gore as possible

Well yeah but once you equip your items on the character they are basically gone and you can't use them on another character which means looting isn't important. We have very little info about the itemization system at high levels.. it might be that majority of our items are below 85 and non BoE and the 85+ elite items are quite hard to obtain and we generally would only have a few of those equipped and when we have one it would be so good that it would be near impossible to find an upgrade anymore.
HC economy was always better than SC in D2 but some years ago many people have been using 2 characters in 1 game to always have 1 looter in game which means that some amount of gear never gets lost.

They should be more imaginative.. and they said at the panels that they try to create something very different that has ever been seen in RPG games. Just like that Monk.. there has been monks in many RPG games but nothing like what blizzard creates.
There might be hunterish character but I'd more likely guess a mix of amazons bow skills/ assasins traps and melee

At least I hope thats how it will work.
