The console market "does not provide for exspansion" but work with DLC. = no sense another exspansion for market console
Ah, now I got what you meant. I still think it's how well they'd do expansion marketing. But yeah, probably dlc and future diablo some year.
The expansion couls be so big it's stand alone.

new expansion coming boys hype book before BlizzCon huge news incoming i'am ready!
Probably DLC no sense 1 DLC necro and then exspansion. No good strategy marketing. Will be another DLC.
Based on one of the early job postings for the new Diablo project they are hiring for, we know that they are working with a new game engine--since the job requirements mentioned experience with rendering technology not found in the D3 engine. They might be working on some type of additional DLC for D3, but the new project is an entirely new game.
So sure they aren't improving D3 graphics in a way they've done with wow expansions?
As far as I know it's only hardcover... then again just checked. The paperback copies are apparently falling apart. The pages are huge and heavy and they glued it to the spine, which is causing the pages to fall out. I saw for NA, Book of Cain hardcover is 12 new and Tryael hardcover for 15. Well worth the extra few bucks ~5 for a quality version. With how it's written, not chapter heavy, but divided into segments it's still a fun read to pick a section out here and there.

Thanks! Just ordered all three as hardcovers.

Thanks! I'll look after the hard covers. Problem is that shipping is $20 for me so I might look if I find used versions from the same place.

Oh, so Tyrael and Cain were close to those releases? Do you recommend the books?
Absolutely, very high quality. The pages are not standard print, but heavy and have rough edges intentionally. The lore in it is the best we have and is cannon. Plus you get some cool posters that come with each copy.
Great! I'll order them. It seems they are soft books? Do not have hard covers?

So close to Blizzcon and it still has D3 logo 
Shall the D4/D3 expansion war continue!

2.6.1 was highly popular because it was the greatest balance patch so far.

Yes, but aren't those I mentioned also quite bad
?
I would hate HOTS looking Diablo 4.

D4 threats:
- Mechanics more child friendly than D3
- Graphical direction more child friendly than D3
- Modern pay mechanics
- Consol based UI
D4 possibilities:
- Closer to D2 atmosphere
- a meaningful endgame outside timed rifts. Neither D2 nor D3 have this. D3 lacks endgame playable campaign and D2 lacked difficulty after Hell.
- Best case scenario: designers find an innovative way to prevent players looking up builds from the internet (preventing copy-paste leaderboards). (Very customized and unique builds, very unique drops).
- Runeword comeback
D4 needs to remain:
- Fluidity and smooth gameplay of D3
- Also single play possibility (not forced multiplay)

Probably Druid and Amazon (some kind of) are quite a strong guesses. Also at least one or two completely new class. And probably they don't have guts to drop Barbarian as he have now been in D2 and D3.

Good to be using Diablofans again!
I am slowly starting to embrace the thought of getting Diablo 4 someday. I am not expecting it to be revealed in Bliizzcon 2019. It might, but I won't launch any false expectations. However, I am still wondering, what happened to those Druid clues? Were they really teasing it for D4 in D3? It's possible. But they also couldn't announce D3 Druid DLC at Blizcon 2018 as they released D3 Switch at the same time making it too soon for the new players (to pay for it). That leaves a small chance, Druid is still coming for the D3. At this point though, they might want to spare that class to D4. So... not expecting anything for D3 either. Someday... luckily I haven't burnt myself with D3 yet.

They can take all the time they want with D4 but I wish they were more straight about D3 future - is that Druid coming or not? I've lost my hope naturally after that hideous Blizzcon but hell, even Heroes of the Storm got straight talk so why not D3?

I've waited for years to have LoN patched to be able to handle at least T13 with great variety of builds and now we are finally getting the buff.
What kind of builds are you going to try with LoN?
First I'm trying a LoN Heaven's Fury. I know it's not going to blast to the leaderboards but I frankly do not care. The gameplay is the same after T13 so as long as I tore through the T13 I'm going to push as far as I can get.

I know Convention of Elements should be used but I prefer to be weaker and not use it if doesn't fit to my build's flavor.
I'm quite excited! Tell me about your plans.

Good things:
-LoN buff
-Primal item when clearing GR70 first time
-After all, this patch narrows the gap of different builds
-None doubling theme
Disappointed:
- No item buffs
- No new content
Better than nothing but it's clear they are very afraid of breaking the game by adding anything interesting.

Moddable D3 would be so awesome. For the very least a quick modder could fix the balance issues.
I think they should at least open up the future of D3 if nothing else.

On the very best case scenario, like Brandy said: they wanted to wait that also Switch players have gotten their copy of D3 before they want to tell about new things for D3..."We are not done with D3."
Possiblities to be revealed soon
1. New theme and cosmetics
2. New content patch or balancing at least
3. Druid DLC
4. Expansion
I'm feeling fool for still believing in #3.

I hope Diablo 3 gets some damage control driven improvements. Balancing, Paragon rework, Runewords, new game mode and such.

Warcraft 3 looked cool. Diablo is dead.

Luckily only week or so to wait... My hype train is off the trails and burning inside. Well, at least we are ready for the worst.

I took that flashing D3 logo and converted it into a negative image.... but no, still the normal logo
Still remember D3 Chronicles "leak"? But yeah that most likely (97%) was fake.
