I'm still deciding whether to buy the virtual ticket or not. I dont know, i dont know! too many things going on and I might not be able to watch it all if i do.. What you guys think i should do?

The best items have to be super high-fantasy and flashy or else it would turn into a game where a lvl 99 pally can wear a brown rag that has some 9000 defense on it...

I dislike the fact that some people don't like to see a supposed "Copy Cat" design from other blizzard games... like WoW.
"Shoulder pad too big? Oh thats not realistic." Its fictional to begin with anyways. I would like to see some exotic gears that defines realism and such. I actually love the designs from great epic gears from WoW. Looks awesome. We need more of that but not too much that it is still diablo.

I like this armor just a little bit. I would like to see some epic armor with glowing Aura or light or energy or what ever that makes it even more mightier or more magical. I hope this isn't the best they have for the end of normal. I would like to see even more exotic/crazy designs in Diablo 3.

Very good design and visual. I like they're style of art. The female monk looks awesome..

I agree with everything they said. Its hardwork, afterall. Reiteration is what I do to all my artworks. I never stop polishing it until I cannot polish it anymore. This is why all of blizzard's games have longevity. No matter how small a detail is it can always be better.

They're not making a console game. The mmorpg will be a "casual play" since it will appeal to a broader audience. it will be as broad as the wii systems and its games. Something like Spore where you can create things and play it like an rpg, say Diablo meets spore or the like. Though, Spore was a waste of money. But who knows, Blizzard makes great games, and let just hope for a really fun mmorpg that everyone will like.. and it will definitely be made for the PC. Though, the majority of casual gamers are on the consoles.

I just think that. If it is called Zombie Dog, the other skills in diablo 3 might as well be like.
Barbarian Spins, Earthquake Hit, Magical Beam...etc..
So, please blizzard rethink about this change.

Lolz... that's right.... what is blizzard thinking?

"Wizard Dissappear" sounds good too, blizzard.

Zombie Dog? I thought blizzard were experts in making up things? That name sounds like it was made up by a 10 year old nerd. It doesn't fit blizzard's style. I prefer the Mongrel, it sounds better and more mature.

The graphics look awesome! Can't wait to see more videos. I like how the barbarian swing her weapon. What a cool, quick and powerful swing. You don't see too many of that in other games. D3 is going to be the ultimate game for me.

Can't wait till blizzcon 09!!!!!!!!! We'll get massive information and videos!!! Hell yeaaaaaa!!

Lol. I quoted what Bashiok said so you can read it and understand my point, and you did. Good.

btw-why are you still up this late? Lol

No, only specific types of swords. You won't see a Wizard holding a ten-ton, two-handed sword. A short sword? Yes, most likely.

Of course, so far we haven't seen a Wizard carry anything but that odd, glowing orb, so we don't even know if the stereotypical casting weapons will only be limited to that, anyway.

And, of course, as was quoted, that isn't set in stone yet, anyway (although it is very likely).



Bashiok said that it shouldn't be an issue, although he failed to elaborate on how they were going to supplement it. In all reality, though, not many people play outside the norm, anyway. Although it's nice to have the option there, of course.

Again, bashiok stated that because of the weapon restriction they are allowed to dive into creating better stats in a weapon specific for a class. This is only logical as it helps the character archetype, as he said. So, in saying, it would be pointless for a wizard to wield a sword when that sword doesn't give any specific stats to the wizard. Overall, if you look at it this way, no one will use a sword or any other weapon in the long run just because they don't get anything out of that weapon.

as quoted by Bashiok...
We want variation, and experimentation, and all that good stuff. These restrictions don't affect those goals, it really just means you probably won't see a wizard lugging around a two-handed axe. Kind of a bummer, but then think about what it affords us to work on with more and better looking skills, a more robust rune-skill system, etc.


The list of what weapon types are or aren't allowed for each class aren't final and could change. They're fairly logical choices and what is most commonly seen as closely tied to the hero archetypes.

So to say, you'll probably never see a wizard holding a sword as this weapon can only be carried by a barbarian or a class capable of wielding such weapons. Imagine 1000 players playing the wizard class and none of them holds any other different kinds of weapons other than a staff and stave. They all will look the same.

With the class restricted items being implemented, I can only hope it doesn't ruin the game in the character building aspect, anyways.

Leeching is just a part of the game. Its not really a problem the game has, it is the players. If d3 dev team decides to make d3 so people cannot leech anymore in any shape or form, the game will become bland and will lack all of what made it fun in the first place.

A game moderation will be abused no matter what. So to say, you hate leechers and you wish they would die or disappear, well here is the thing, when you were getting rush you're basically leeching. Imagine if d3 dev team created anti-leeching. All of what they stand for will be for nothing. People won't play together, the game becomes bland because people aren't playing together, and they might lose profits from sales because people won't buy d3 . Why? it has a bad rating due to the fact that .."people aren't playing together and therefore it is boring." That's why blizzard are being open-minded and fair to everyone. Being biased is a bad thing to have.
