Global Creative Writing Update
The first Blizzard Entertainment global creative writing contest ended on April 12, but that's not the end of these epic tales. After over fifteen-hundred entries and millions of carefully chosen words, it?s now in the hands of the judges.
One grand prize winner will be chosen to win a trip to Blizzard Entertainment's headquarters in Southern California to meet and eat with the Blizzard Entertainment writing staff, and a Frostmourne sword.
Seven runners-up will be chosen to receive prize packages consisting of signed copies of the Diablo Archive, Warcraft Archive, StarCraft Archive, and the Warcraft War of the Ancients Archive.
Look for an announcement with our chosen grand prize winner and runners-up on Friday, May 22. Good luck to all of the entrants!

As I have noted before, it seems far more enjoyable to flex our fan cred and awesome knowledge than to help you in any constructive way. Sorry, mockery. Them's the breaks, and that's the thanks you get for all of your hard work.Quote from "mockery" »For those who've already seen the mod... well, it's new to me (and Bashiok as well, as you can see from his response), so don't assume everybody else has seen it. If you ever come across something interesting like this that we haven't already posted a news thread about, I encourage you guys to send me (or any of the other staff members) a PM about it. If we think it's something news-worthy, we'll post it up on the homepage and credit you for the scoop!

Mar 4, 2009Ralsu posted a message on Bashiok on Runes.Posted in: NewsQuote from Bashiok »But remove the word rune, and you're looking at a system that simply upgrades items.
Similarly, runes in Diablo III, take away the word rune and we're looking at a system where skills and abilities can be altered to behave differently, simply increased in effectiveness, or some combination thereof.
I think Blizzard should think about changing the nomenclature. If people are having that much difficulty understanding how the system works just because the word "rune" is used, they should use a different word.
As for why system I would like to see to upgrade weapons, I like the gems from Diablo II. -
Oct 7, 2008Ralsu posted a message on Will Diablo 3 Be Playable At BlizzCon 2008?Posted in: News
I think this makes a lot of sense from a marketing perspective.Quote from "iEv0" »I think it will be likely that they have a demo. It will probably have the 2 known characters and the new one they are revealing. The playable area will probably be nearly identical to the game play trailer, but hopefully we can get to see some new environments!. -
Sep 17, 2008Ralsu posted a message on Diablo 3 Havok Physics - Part TwoIt is encouraging to see Blizzard address fan feedback. I would love to see corpses stick around longer and to allow classes to use skills that affect corpses, but I'd rather play a game that is not laggy. I'm satisfied with their approach to this point.Posted in: News

That said, I'll wait until I play it before I complain.

When I am watching a horror movie, I expect the slasher to be hiding in the drab rundown shack. The fact that he'll slit your throat in the room you just painted canary yellow for your newborn baby--the fact that NO place is safe--actually adds a greater element of fear than dividing the world into colorless=dangerous and colorful=safe.

As much as it sucks for fans of a gray scale game, evil is NOT confined to a world of black and white. Just because the color purple is present in a room, that does not mean that it has to be in the form of a purple cloud. Medieval kings paid top coin for silk tapestries died bright red and purple. The bright colors stood out on the gloomy stone walls of the castle and showed off the owner's wealth.
That said, YES, it will suck if every epic dungeon is bathed in a green or purple glow with no discernible source. The caves in Diablo I had an appropriate orange glow because of the lava everywhere. The icy areas of Act 5 of Diablo II had an appropriate blue tint caused by the shadows on ice.
So, I don't mind color, I just want it to match the environment in some way. And if Diablo shows up in a room with a purple tapestry on the wall, I won't be any less anxious about the coming encounter.
