I think it was either Drognan or Jehryn that tells us that someone from the west came to Lut Gholein and asked for the whereabouts of Horazon's Journal. Whoever came to visit was the one that eventually found the Arcane Sanctuary within the palace and he was the first to open it.
I found this piece of information when I was bored one time. And each time the Quest Log appeared, I went to a dungeon/out of Lut Gholein and clicked all the NPCs just to say what they say. I even clicked the Gossips.
I thought it was common knowledge that the warrior was the one that defeated Diablo and that at least one of the rogues was indeed Blood Raven.
Haha, anyway, while waiting around reading everyone's gossips, you'll learn that the NPCs in Act 5 think that Larzuk (the armourer/socket quest guy) is a crackpot, and he actually was the one who thought of inventing a new weapon which turns out to be a missile/rocket.
I would like to see more water based enemies (leviathans/mosasaur looking creatures). Also, our characters being able to enter a realm of water wouldn't be such of a bad idea either (swimming/water walking).
I've been thinking on how they'd incorporate this, and the relation to this idea would be Champions: Return to Arms (an old console game). It had a quest where you would need the blessing of a mermaid (in Diablo 3's case it doesn't have to be so) to be able to enter a realm of water. The only downside to this was the "cheesy" adaptation to water your character inherits. He/She simply walks on the ocean floor, and it doesn't seem to fit well with me. The only other way would be to incorporate the "Oblivion point of view", in which case would change the way Diablo 3 is ever played.
Still, it would be nice to fight a giant sea serpent or two. It could also be a great way to flee from a monster/pk who does not have the ability to walk on water/survive underwater. It simply expands the gameplay to an even greater level.
Anyway, here is an old mod for Diablo 2 named Ancestral Recall and it's supposedly from one of its makers/animators as well. It features giant Cyclopses in Act 2, and a different Treehead Woodfist (in the shape of what looks like the Ents in Lord of the Rings), a different looking Bloodraven, different looking Fangskin, evil Iron Golems just to name a few. You might want to check those screen shots out.
I couldn't agree with you more, mate. I do hope they find a better use for gold. Also, I am unsure if they should make an item that would be use as an alternative currency (SOJs for example).
Indeed, it was great if you had them. But to those that never had them, trading was a terrible nightmare.
I do believe that gold should be of high importance to the game. It would be good to relish the fact that it may also be used as the main form of trading, rather than items; although, we know it would never be that way as far as the Diablo game is concerned anyway. Lest they change the whole idea of the gameplay of course.
Indeed, cheers to my brothers here, and welcome back to all who had gone and returned!
I have been inactive for a while myself. It is nice to see the site is still here and there are still a few active members. Members that I've known for a while, nonetheless.
Since when did you have your own religion, Silversurfnstud? Haha.
Yes, I agree. I did not wish to start an argument over so little a thing as being accused of spamming the channels.
And for the record, I have been gone for a while because I have been on vacation travelling the world.
As far as the topic and the Sin War goes. I think it has been covered respectfully in this thread. I do not know what more we may able to say about the subject.
Someone once posted on this site that he would like to have seen D3 comparable to Elder Scrolls in the same respects as creating the magic in Elder Scrolls.
I agree. I believe that the character classes should each have their own unique skill sets like D2, yet are able to combine their learned skills to form new skills/magic. Although how they are to accomplish this, would be very difficult to say.

I know the game name and the game itself poses something of an ethical/moral flag for the parents, but, I can't say I shared the same problem.
Good luck in your next game purchases, I suppose.
