I don't know if there has been threads on this yet (just got home), but are these people even remotely legit? They are SOOO bad when it comes to bashing the petition...half the stuff they say is just completely missing the point of the petition...maybe this is because they are not AVID diablo gamers, and simply don't care.
Heard it, to be honest it was only really the Kristen chick being a tard, the other guys were pretty neutral, and from my point of view a lot of what they said made it very apparent why people are pissed off. Namely that even they think the look and style is being watered down for a broader audience and that it does look influenced by WoW.
I love the visuals, but it is undeniable that was influenced by WoW...and when they said that "well that makes sense that you wouldn't want it to be influenced by a game that 10 million people play", which i understand...but millions play diablo as well and if millions of people play team fortress 2, does this mean that valve should (sorry if you dont know valve or TF) make all there games look like TF@? lol no!
It just irked me thats all...but the bottom line is (for me), although I think SOME things should be changed, it is a BEAUTIFUL game and will be loads of fun
not the fans, so theirs no point it making noise for no reason.
i unlike most people liked the way d3 looked, and i believe they should keep it that way.
the way i see it, they are making the game, you don't like it, don't buy it.

We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive. Tupac Shakur

To answer your first question, Worlds Best-Selling PC Gaming magazine. Legit? I think so. And please point out some examples from the podcast that miss the point of the petition. Also, each one tells if they did or did not play D2 avidly, they do care, if you listen to later podcasts Kristen states, it is a well respected game being made by a very well respected game dev. You people need to stop being so defensive of this damn petition. We get it, you want your opinion voiced, it has been voiced, it has gotten the attention of Blizzard and the gaming community, I think it's safe to stop tooting the horn for a while.

I don't see how the game looks so much of WoW which is why the petition is childish and retarded cuz almost every point of it is compared to WoW.. disgusting.

PC Gamer used to be called PC Games and they have been around friggin forever....I know at least over 10 years as I have been subscribed for that long. Hell I even have the issue that debuts the FIRST Diablo. I think that they have maybe gone a tad bit downhill since years gone past; but I do still read every issue I get. I think it was in bad taste how they reacted and could've been done with a little more class...even though I do not agree with the petition. I also have to say I agree with Super.Fresh. You guys got your opinion...why not relax a bit or just face up to the fact that not everyone is going to agree and some will be childish..hell I'm guilty myself in other posts. I dunno I think now I'm just so tired of it that I don't even want to bother arguing...I just come on see if anything new is up and leave if there isn't..posting here and there. BTW there is already a post on this by Medi and don't know if it will close as it has turned into the same as this one where it is just a big argument about what was said. (Sigh)
Hopefully in the end we can ALL enjoy Diablo 3.
