I'm not skeptical anymore, but I am sad that Blizz will start announcing things on different conventions. This means even more unneeded hype, but most importantly - the watering down of BlizzCon, which was by far my favorite out there.
Honestly, I would rather have the games unveiled prior to Blizzcon than at Blizzcon. Especially as an attendee. I went to Blizzcon 2008 and I have to say I was quite pleased being in the grp of the first folks outside Blizzard's offices to play Diablo 3. The audience at the WWI that year got to enjoy the thrill of the reveal, but I was much happier getting to play test the game and being shown a new class.
I can't wait for the reveal I'm sure the teaser will be EPIC!

If you want to arrange it
This world you can change it
If we could somehow make this
Christmas thing last
By helping a neighbor
Or even a stranger
And to know who needs help
You need only just ask
Hopefully it's not only a "story" teaser and they'll have some gameplay news to show as well
"Reaper of Souls" makes me believe this will deal in large part with Malthael, the Archangel who went awry and wielded scythes, who just happens to be reminiscent of...?
You got it, the Grim Reaper.
That was kind of my first thought, too. They were more like sickles or khopeshes, though. That verse of the prophecy could just as easily be referring to Tathamet.

The Reaper of Souls will reap the souls of all the players, who want Self-Found mode, meaningful endgame, PvP features and more accessible items, while on the other hand will lick the balls of all the RMAH users.
You herd it here first.
Über boss fights to craft your hellfire ring, which supports paragon leveling. Better endgame crafting to gear up for pvp or more efficient MP runs. These aren't meaningful? They gave us the boot with PVP, I will you that one. People seem to expect a little too much with an ARPG.

Well it make sens with the leaked timeline chart in 2009 ! They are always near the date on that chart so we can see the x-pack end 13 begin 14 !!
titan is settle to 2015
Before wiping titan project they were playing it internaly at blizzard so if they wouldnt have wipe it it would be in 2014 so the chart has been pretty accurate for the project they didnt reset.

Except D3 was pushed back to 2013 and there is no way they'll release a new expansion in 2013, let alone 6 months from the console release.
In fact I don't see them releasing an expansion at all. It wouldn't work very well with the console business.
I think we can expect a $15-20 DLC. D3 Reaper of Souls : the rest of the game, or something like that. Hell, only releasing a new class would sell.
What? D3 launched mid 2012. If you move everything D3 related over by that same amount, then the first D3 expansion that would have dropped in mid 2013 will drop in late 2013.
I could see it being released shortly after Blizzcon, actually.
I doubt it. There still working hard on Loot 2.0 and other stuff most likely. At the rate blizzard works I doubt the expansion is even near ready. They probably have the story done and the act but I bet it's only 75% complete.

You guys are taking that chart too literally... does no one see the bold disclaimer at the bottom of it? Someone may have just made that according to past release dates.
I fear when I get home my roommate's poor kitty has already been sacrificed..

yes my bad, it was pushed back to 2012 was what I meant, more than 6 months later. Point is a lot of the product listed already have had their target release date changed.
right, and my point is if we extrapolate the 6 month pushback, then the first D3 exp pack would launch at the end of 2013.

...Haven't seen you around these parts for awhile. Wonder if we will see FORCE make some D3 videos again soon. You two hyped me up for D3 vanilla and then left pretty soon after release..
Malthael makes the most sense to me - he currently has the most open ended questions in the story line.
Is he still Wisdom? - Tyrael proclaimed himself Wisdom but doesn't the lore go that if an Angel dies that the replacement will appear out of the Crystal Arch in Heaven?
I think Mathael may have turned bad and he is wanting to trap all demons AND angles into the black soul stone so he can become Anu..
We need to kill him.. when we do.. DECKARD CAIN will appear from the Crystal Arch as the the new ANGEL OF WISDOM..
Now we don't need to worry about "The Dark Below".
Ummmm....thanks Blizzard for clearing this up?!
