Diablo 3 Items and Inventory
Kazo: "I watched the gameplay video again and took some pictures from moments when the items and skill descriptions are visible. Some new type of items that dropped from Diablo3 monsters in the video:
- Minor Lethality Rune
- Minor Power Rune
- Ancient Medallion
- Minor Energy Rune
- Chipped Star Topaz - New "star" variant
- Elixir of Vitality I
- Elixir of Willpower I
INVENTORY
Blizzard said they have plans for making the inventory much better.
In the video we can see room for 30 items. It seems each item will have it's own reserved space with no size variations, similar to the bag system of World of Warcraft. The Barbarian, however, has only 12 item spaces "active" or "available", other 18 being "grayed out". This means characters in D3 will be able to carry variable sizes of bags. If you look at the bottom of the inventory space, there are 4 grayed out slots for bags, similar to World of Warcraft. The icon for these bags is the same as the main inventory screen icon.

This bit worries me, i don't want a bag system like WoW for a Diablo game, it makes it look and feel too much like WoW. But if it has to be then i it has to be.
The grayed out bags reminded me of WoW instantly, and gave me a face
Need more originality for the inventory
But looks good, thanks for the info MD
That being said I actually like the bag system in WoW and I don't feel that having that system will really distract from the feeling that I'm playing diablo3 at all.
FTW! I am glad they are doing this, Item collection is a very fun part of Diablo, and in D3 we shouldn't need multiple characters just to act as Mules
I remember having 2 or 3 mule characters full of items because of MF runs all day w/ My Sorc, I wish we could store them all on one person!? I mean we should be able to pay IN GAME GOLD to get more storage eh? At high levels storage should be close to unlimited IMO, if you pay in game gold for it
items being only one slot right now is fine with me, means you get to do more runs without having to mule it out. so in that sence I don't mind. offcourse it was nice to throw stuff around in your inventory just so you could pick up that 1 thing...but meh, things change, and I for one like it.
He said he had rigged the game to show off features. I hope that is part of it as well.
I'm pretty sure all the gear that he had was NOT for low levels... They were example items so that they could bash in baddies easily for the demo.
Not items you would find in the first Act, unless I am wrong... but imo they were items much higher level then the character should be at the start of the game.
Sonic where are you from?
And I also love runewords, new runewords would be awesome, especially if they ALTERED the appearance of items along with stats.
Edit: I don't want to take the time for weeping over my deleted account but who knows a good open realm hack so i can play more?
As far as everything taking up the same space in the inventory. Look I don't know about you, but my idea of fun in Diablo has nothing to do with rearranging my entire inventory to make room for a long sword or a two handed mace.
In regards to sockets. I don't really care if the item graphic in my inventory shows sockets or not. It's not like you actually saw the runes on your weapons in D2 when you were actually playing. I would however like to see runes or especially rune-words give off some kind of visual cue while you are playing. Example: rune word such and such, your weapon pulsates with the dark glow of demonic power.

In the title, misspelled.
Letting you know
I seriously want this item system though, I dont want multiple mules anymore
Since there are bag slots in the inventory screen in the screen shot. Yes, this would be a good assumption.
I don't know but I'm certainly liking the 1 item/1 slot thing. But i don't want to collect bags to increase my inventory space, it would be better if it was a fixed number or if it increases with every stamina point.
Maybe because it's good to have a localized point of reference for a discussion other than scrubbing through the video? wait... are you retarded?
ฺBecause these are much clearer and n ot taken from that trailer.
