Let's not talk about something like that, please; especially in a joking manner. Remember, we're trying to be respectful adults and, consequently, inviting to the rest of the world. We want Blizzard to want to be associated with us.

I agree, this really isn't the place for that kind of talk.
Whether they decide to change stuff or not it's going to be a great game.
The game is also going to draw NEW Blizzard players from WoW and other games that have never played Diablo.
Maybe. But I also think the "high fantasy" area of the market has alot more competition than the "dark fantasy/Gothic" part. If Diablo is subtly competing with WoW type fans/gamers, then it's like they are competing with themselves in fierce market. There's no need to erode their market share there in that way. Have all your bases covered.

True but I think 90% of WoW players will buy Diablo 3 just because blizzard made it and it's a solo game as well as online.
Oh please, you guys throw around ignorance like its common practice in normal discussions and they you act like something like this offends you?
Nice double standards you got there!
Rape isn't something to joke about, nor is it anything to do with ignorance.
Do you even know what ignorance is?
ig·no·rance
the state or fact of being ignorant; lack of knowledge, learning, information, etc.
So lacking information has nothing to do with joking about a serious matter. Besides this thread isn't a flame thread there are plenty of those.
Putting in the Warcraft style into Diablo is a rape.
You put something in it, that doesnt belong there.
I don't see any warcraft style in there. Some peoples mind is poisoned by the ones that keep yelling this issue all the time. Do you know what made Hitler so popular leader? He was good at talking and manipulating peoples minds.
I see diablo 3 style. It's not straight from earlier games but it is good.

And saying the word warcraft makes me want to stab you in the eye. People are seeing whats not there....
Example...
Now to me they look nothing alike, but maybe its because I am not crazy. I don't mind what people say about the graphics, but when they mention WoW or Warcraft it just pisses me off to no end.

For fear of getting off track or starting some useless banter, I'm going to ask the following in hopes of receiving a simple reply: I'm confused, are you admitting that your jovial depiction of such a thing is ignorance and that I shouldn't be offended because I apologized for showing a semblance of rudeness in a post or two?
I'm seriously not attempting to be rude here. I'm just genuinely confused by your post.

I see SMALL, SMALL likenesses, like the statue, the inventory, one of the monsters, but besides that it's a completely different game. I don't see the big deal.

Thanks for that picture. Great example. This picture will make the wow bashers feel like idiots.
With DiabloII/LOD there is an undeniable feel, graphically, sound,... I mean you can _____-smell it !!! No other multiplayer-RPG reached those heights for its time and it legacy, even to this DAY !!!
You can change the "menu" but don't change those magical "recipes"
If D3 flops becuase of BLIZZARD, it simply proves they forgot (due to their own GREED for the last decade) what made DIABLO great.
I think the reason that people are shitting themselves over thinking Diablo 3 has borrowed from WoW is because that was once of the concerns before the game was announced.
So once the game was announced, they immediately tried to compare D3 to WoW, and the smallest similarity sent off red flags in the puny minds, and now they're running around crying foul.
It's times like this that you wish that an IQ test would need to be administered before internet access is given to people.

Crap psyfect. No matter how hard to try to incite mature, adult discussion, the Internet always degenerates into a formula that ends in a Hitler reference.
There's nothing wrong with voicing your opinion. What frustrated me was the fact that some people were threatening to give up on the Diablo series all together. This was one day after the announcement! That's just ridiculous...

Of course because I admitted I use ignorance?
You're just posting to start arguments and fights.

But, All is forgiven
