dettol posted a message on Diablo 3 Forum Template Goes Up On Battle.Net!Im with Mockery, this whole thing is a smokescreen created as a reaction to someone discovering a 'closed' Diablo 3 forum when searching through the address bar. I dont think any of the other options that have appeared since were functional at the time so hold on to your horses gentlmen!!Posted in: News -

dettol posted a message on Rumor: Diablo II Patch and Ladder ResetIm sure most of you recall a countdown before the big announcment of www.diablo3.com being handed over to Blizzard. The aim of this countdown and indeed the result of it was to atract inactive, distracted, sleeping, hibernating, and in some cases criogenically frozen Diablo fans so to give the community a jump start and to get as many peoples attention as possible.Posted in: News
If Blizzard were to release this much anticipated patch, it would likely have the same effect, but I beleive at an even greater scale. Perhaps this is yet another way for Blizzard to get peoples attention before the greatest annoucment this millenium...? -

dettol posted a message on Blizzcon 2008 AnnouncedThe lack of any Diablo references on the banner got me thinking...Posted in: News
(I know its long, sorry :S)
Blizzard has made no reference to a new title being announced during the WWI, the event should be dominated by a WC, WoW and SC2 fan base. It doesnt make sense to supply this event with D3 content if this has not been promoted as there will be a very minimal fan base present to whom this new content would appeal (not to say fans of other Blizzard titles are not Diablo fans but a large contingent of hardcore Diablo fans is unlikely to be present). Correct me if I am wrong, Blizzard has always included D3 in its conventions promotional material, why have they suddenly dropped it?
I imagine Blizzard will not want a large Diablo fan base at the WWI if there is only going to be an indirect announcement with no content or a press release with information and perhaps a teaser. They may be trying to avoid the scenario where hyped up D3 fans present react very negatively to a lack of more comprehensive D3 content, as brought up earlier on this thread.
That said, I have a feeling there will be an announcement confirming a new title including a press release and just maybe some content or a teaser. We know Medievaldragon has been invited to the WWI and is being pampered by the Blizzard Gods while there. This could be the beginning of the journey back into a world we all love.
This leads me to my final point... the extra hall being prepared for Blizzcon.
It makes sense to announce a new title during WWI and create hype for the following event in which more content and info could be available. In their press release dates 12-May-08 Blizzard mentions tickets will be made available in a few weeks which places them just 2 weeks prior to the WWI. This also make sense to me due to the following, Blizzard knows how quickly tickets will sell if people know there will be D3 content at Blizzcon, but they have to be careful not to have an uproar from fans of their other titles not getting their hands on tickets themselves. Releasing tickets prior to the announcement so that hardcore fans can buy them up quickly and then having the last tickets scooped up by D3 fans, fits.
The only thing im not sure about is how quickly Blizzcon tickets sold out last year bearing in mind there may be 50% more tickets available this year? -

There are always many supporting factors in any theory as these are typically necessary to create an argument in favour of said theory. I agree with pretty much every other point supporting WWI as a confirmation by Blizzard of D3, however, what I was referring to is the idea Paris was chosen as the venue due to the fan base there. I feel having the GDC in Paris may in fact be the defining factor for it being chosen as the venue.
I dont know where you got Blizzcon from

dettol posted a message on Blizzcon 2008 AnnouncedFor months now I have read peoples theory on WWI being in Paris due to the Diablo II player base there. I have never bought this theory.Posted in: News
I think its more realistic to tie the GDC (Game Developers Conference) to the Blizz WWI. After reading this article, I finally felt it was time to come out and say it -

I hail from a land of islands and sheep (some do in fact explode when pocked), just shy of the white barren wilderness that is Antarctica. I enjoy pondering upon the universe that is the human mind and am fascinated by knowledge in general.
I first came across Blizzard when I visited a very hot friend of mines place who had Warcraft. I became quite enthralled by it, and my friend, and found at a tender age of 12 that gaming and chix do mix!
All this talk about D3 has wet my appetite for D2 and so am in the process of working through D2 and LOD. I very much enjoy playing D2 for its simple yet diverse game mechanics involving items and monsters, which fall to their knees upon the hack and slash of my mighty sword.
After doing a little lurking I realise you have a fine compliment of girl and boy gamers as well as a number of wise old men keeping us youngins in line. Im 24 and look forward to having a good laugh, getting to know the characters on here and making a fool of myself. In the mean time im just riding the wave which is building towards that 29th of June 2008...
Cheers!
