    Its absurd to presume that the majority of the players who will play diablo 3 will be new to the series entirely even lore wise.., and even if by some miracle the playerbase is made up more so of new players to the series then familiar ones, then wouldn't it seem more logical that they would be interested in the story if they haven't played the game before?

    Some will pick up the game and be like " I'm killing demons, f*ck yeah!"
    Others will be " I'm killing demons, f*ck yeah! but im a little curious as to the story"

    This game is ALL about Story.

    Getting to 60 in Hell is not really a challenge.
    Beating inferno / Beating inferno on HC is.

    Have you ever considered that not everyone enjoys Diablo because it has an "epic storyline" ? Some people enjoy other things in the game. Most people enjoy other things in the game actually. Probably like 5% of the players are looking forward to the story part most.

    Nice 5% playerbase assumption on who is looking forward to storyline, that's also a guess, a terribly incorrect guess.

    But nice try.

    On what do facts do you base your statement of my guess being "incorrect" ? Just because you like the story does not mean that more than 1/20 of the casuals who buy the game and have never played the Diablo series care about the story. They care about the gameplay.

    I base it on the fact that there is more then 5% of people on this forum alone, let alone the world, who will play for the storyline. The lore and storyline forum isn't empty. I for one will play for both gameplay and fun but what makes diablo a even greater experience is how much the lore expands the excitement and depth of gameplay.

    Waiting for 10 years for this new game.

    I should rush through all the content as fast as humanly possible and not pay attention to any of it so I can hit level 60.

    Completely agree.

    Its like one day I know im going to die, so lets obtain every disease on the planet, drink excessively, smoke excessively to see how fast I can die.

    Then I can boast about how.. oh wait im dead.

    posted a message on Cain dies on page 431, Paragraph 3, line 19 (Not really >_>)
    Quote from Molster

    Okay so the title was just made up (duh), But it brings up the issue of spoilers

    Sadly this happens for almost all games. However, there are people that do want to know this kind of information and these things will be coming left and right come may 14th (possibly sooner depending on what kind of leaks get thrown out).

    the key point to this, is that this applies to the news as well. Obviously as movies are posted (may 14th from other regions) we will want to post those up right away (with an obvious SPOILER and such) but how long before the lack of said spoiler warning is in the 'ok'

    Also,on the forum side, we will of course be keeping a massive lookout for these, but please if you see anything that looks like its about to be a spoiler, please please feel free to hit the report button (even if you didnt read the full post)

    Obviously don't just go reporting everything all crazy like, but if from the title, or even from the text it starts like "So there was a leak where....." "Just found out that Cain ....." ...ect feel free to stop reading so you don't spoil yourself, and we will check it out for you (and put it in a spoiler tag, or add spoil to the title..w/e)!

    Honestly 1 to 2 weeks seems like the sweet spot , but vote away (as what I think is good, others may not agree).

    If you guys have any fears or concerns about spoilers post away.


    NOTE: Im asking this to get a basic idea of what you all think before I decide on a time, as your thoughts are important!

    I won't be visiting this website till I have completed the game :)

    You could also swap out Siphon on SH for something else or keep to assit haunt w/consuming spirit for blood ritual. Another thing to take into account is the scaling of mana costs.


    Hope this helped :)

    I can forsee substantial mana issues, because all you have is the base 20/mps if you aren't always rotating your cooldowns at the right times and order, and to further make mana an issue you have PTV (Pierce the Veil). While the damage output would be pretty intense on this build theres no point if you don't have the mana to use all the skills and I doubt vision quest will be substantial enough.

    I recon swap out PTV for jungle fortitude since you don't have pets 20% DR will come in handy, and maybe take haunt w/ consuming spirit over poison dart for blood ritual purposes.

    posted a message on No spell is useless. Its just very different from D2
    Quote from Ruppgu

    Quote from Tsukishima

    Blizzard damage is pretty fixed. Energy twister is random. It is fully possible to do more damage on twister than blizzard. Twister also stacks and is spammable, Blizzard can't stack.

    I would say these 2 skills have different niches.

    Good point on blizzard.

    What about Meteor - Star Pact vs Energy Twister - Wicked Wind.

    * Both cost 35AP
    * From the videos I've seen, Meteor has a bigger range
    * Wicked Wind does 252% over 6 seconds
    * Meteor does 260% damage over 3 seconds (not to mention that 200% of it is instant)

    So... Energy Twister - Wicked Wind is useless.

    Wrong.

    Just because meteor runed does more damage then energy twister runed, does not make energy twister useless. There will be times where meteor will not be the best choice of spell to use given the situation and energy twister by far, will prevail better and vise versa. Determining which spells are completely inferior to other spells (therefore useless) is a bold statement to make before release, more damage isn't always better.

    In terms of AP to damage ratio, yes meteor does more but that doesn't make it a overall better spell.

    Quote from Enty

    Book of Cain is astounding. An amazing read.
    No it's not. As a book? Poor as hell.
    It's good if you're a diablo fan who enjoys lore. I enjoyed it as a sub-part of a fun universe.
    The book per si is really freaking bad.

    Everyone to thier own mate, I actually enjoyed it to and It filled in lore gaps for me. I have played both d1 and d2 for many years but the only story stuff I gathered was from actually playing the game.

    Just one example I didn't even know how sanctuary came to be, which the book of cain heavily informed me on. :)

    Quote from Kurast

    Finally somone who understands. Jay clearly explains that they want pvp in the game.. because some people like to "PVP". They can't make a game that caters for only one audience. Therefore even if they emphasize strongly on one aspect like PVM and only a moderate amount on PVP the game is still available to the people who enjoy pvp.


    I'm over this fucking topic anyway, and people who keep sooking about no rating, no way to show I'm best, or I can't prove how big my dick is. :facepalmsign:

    You could prove it with video and a ruler, no?

    Tell that to the people who think pvp is the only thing worth doing on diablo.
