Yes, Diablo fans are a joke, they just want the game to be the worst game ever released, they're doing this in order to have Diablo 3 canceled and never released, what an ass hole you are...
He's saying the petitions a joke because you can create dummy emails and essentially have multiple signatures from one person. If 1 person made 10 fake emails and all 5k did that, than in reality, that means only 500 signed it :D. That's all hypothetically speaking of course.
.....you didnt read the artical it came from...didnt you. * facepalm*
Actually I did !
can please some1 expalin ? "Blizzards counter-offer to appease them with free copies of Wrath of the Lich King upon release was not accepted."?
Nothing worries me more than the idea of a developer placating a vocal minority: "Waaaaah! Make the game I want you to make!"
The thing I'm seeing here isn't so much a few people whining about aesthetics so much as long-time fans seeing something they don't like about the direction certain facets of the product they care about have progressed and voicing their concerns about it (I'm one of them).
I've only voiced my opinions in a single post (beyond this one) and hope the developers at Blizzard heed what was said (it's doubtful, but I can't say I didn't try). In the long run, people will vote with their wallets anyways.
I highly doubt the game will be any less 'fun' with the WoW-esque art direction currently in place but it will still leave me with the sense that it could have been better. Blizzard may be choosing this new approach to Diablo III's graphics to cater to the Asian demographic (that, statistically, have preferred more colours and less realism in their art).
If that's the case, there will be more profit in pursuing the WoW art direction if it means garnering more sales in the Asian markets (almost no one in Asia played Horde characters until the Blood Elves were introduced). 'Gritty' and 'realistic' tend not to sell well in those markets and, with the plummeting value of the American dollar, I can't blame Blizzard for catering to sales elsewhere.
I would prefer to play a Gothic horror fantasy game over a quasi-WoW spin-off but, in the end, I'm sure Blizzard will make the right decision for their product.

I think the petition was jumping the gun a bit. I didn't realize that designing a game was done by committee these days. If that's the case- it will never be done.
I hope Blizzard has the foresight to listen, but then continue down the path that is best for the game (and not for self-appointed committee members).
Because, with the amount of poo-flinging and tantrums from the vocal minority does not make for a better game.
Yes, I said vocal minority.
The game, when released, will become "Game of the Year" with over 1 million units sold. A petition is not going to stop it from achieving this milestone- nor will you not buy it when it is released.
I understand your heart is in the right place, but put down the lit torches and be patient. Blizzard is not going to fail us- all their products go through the progression. Diablo 3 will be no different.
One last thing, be grateful for what is coming- and let your voice be heard for what you also like about the game. I mainly hear the negativity- and it sounds trite & screechy.
I'm sure Blizzard will slide this under the table for a few months, show you a bit of content from another act, and then, if the outrage continues, deal with it.
Yes and Yes. If theyre gonna keep the cartoon style they might as well name it Diablocraft. And while it would still be a fun game, it would be nothing like the previous 2 were. Nuff said. Good isnt enough for Diablo. Diablo is THE BEST
You're greedy. "BECUZ ITS NOT MAH WAY THEY BETTER CANCEL IT!!!"
Part of me hopes they do because then all you complainers will officially be pwned.

This means nothing... The great thing about all of this is - Blizzard doesn't give a shit about a couple role-playing gothic fatasses who've never seen a real pussy in their pathetic lives.

Do remember that millions of copies will be sold.
If they push back the game due to the minority, the majority of fans are going to be very upset.
edit: The game isn't even close to WoW. This outbreak is ridiculous.

Well said, I feel the same way.
