The console market "does not provide for exspansion" but work with DLC. = no sense another exspansion for market console
Ah, now I got what you meant. I still think it's how well they'd do expansion marketing. But yeah, probably dlc and future diablo some year.
The expansion couls be so big it's stand alone.

new expansion coming boys hype book before BlizzCon huge news incoming i'am ready!
Probably DLC no sense 1 DLC necro and then exspansion. No good strategy marketing. Will be another DLC.
Based on one of the early job postings for the new Diablo project they are hiring for, we know that they are working with a new game engine--since the job requirements mentioned experience with rendering technology not found in the D3 engine. They might be working on some type of additional DLC for D3, but the new project is an entirely new game.
So sure they aren't improving D3 graphics in a way they've done with wow expansions?
As far as I know it's only hardcover... then again just checked. The paperback copies are apparently falling apart. The pages are huge and heavy and they glued it to the spine, which is causing the pages to fall out. I saw for NA, Book of Cain hardcover is 12 new and Tryael hardcover for 15. Well worth the extra few bucks ~5 for a quality version. With how it's written, not chapter heavy, but divided into segments it's still a fun read to pick a section out here and there.

Thanks! Just ordered all three as hardcovers.

Thanks! I'll look after the hard covers. Problem is that shipping is $20 for me so I might look if I find used versions from the same place.

Oh, so Tyrael and Cain were close to those releases? Do you recommend the books?
Absolutely, very high quality. The pages are not standard print, but heavy and have rough edges intentionally. The lore in it is the best we have and is cannon. Plus you get some cool posters that come with each copy.
Great! I'll order them. It seems they are soft books? Do not have hard covers?

So close to Blizzcon and it still has D3 logo 
Shall the D4/D3 expansion war continue!

Good points. We will find out in two weeks. Probably we will see some hints before it, too.

I sincerely believe the bolded text isn't for D4 but this is: "Some of them are going to take longer than others". They wouldn't used such sentence if D4 was to come 2019. Perhaps they made video hoping people would read between the lines D4 is coming at some point, but "enjoy Diablo things we have for this year. " You know, they tried to find a way to dodge the 2016 Necro reveal catastrophe with their 2018 news (druid, remasters). Of course, it didn't go very well.

My hype train crashes only if D3 expansion isn't revealed. Tbh, Druid and patches would make me happy as well.

Are they seriously releasing Book of Adria without announcing it first?

Interesting! Still about 6 weeks to go.

D4 in the works and D3 expansion trailer despite all the community rage towards D3. Community is truly a minority of all potential customer base.

Well we will know soon the new theme. Interesting times!
0
I ordered it, too.
Haha, as if we haven't waited long enough, let us wait 2 more months. Well, that's not much, really.
Interesting to see new theme, too.

I mean "crossed the point where can be". Can't edit post.

Yes, we shall see. Either today or after 2 months. I'm sure we have crossed the point where Blizzcon can't be without grant Diablo news.

Skelos, how can you be so sure that following scenario isn't possible (highly unlikely though):
- D4 2022+
- D3 Expansion 2019
"High technology job postings?"
- could be a huge engine revision for D3
"D3 is old"
- D3 China, console and switch aren't and Blizzard wants to keep old computers capable.
"D3 beyond repair"
- D3 RoS also made grant adjustments
"What new there could be?"
- new classes
- new act(s)
- runewords and jewels
- endgame campaign & new rifts
- paragon rewamp etc
Just curious what's going to happen.

Pity that we haven't listed all the job postings after 2014. Sure, probably these could be tracked down by news from back in the day.
Is there more live streams coming? Ending on saturday? Oh yes but probably no Diablo now.

Well, Gamescom can still surprise tomorrow. An Overwatch hero was once announced at saturday closing.

In 2015, there was one very strange job posting about how to import tiles from an old game. Don't remember well, but there might be something about it in conversations back in the day. Wasn't under classic games.
