LadyCrimson Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm violating my own opinion that this thread should stay mostly D3, facts and reactions but this is beyond . Hahaha! That's hilarious. I must go share it with others now. “Things are as they are.

Humodour Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) Yeah! I've been waiting for this all week. Time to have a crazy Diablo 3 party. So, who's up for a Diablo 2 game NOW? Come on I only need 2 other people to play with to make it worthwhile. So much for PC gaming dieing any time soon... (no thanks to Microsoft or Games for Windows though) I have a good article on that. It's about Valve saying PC gaming is the inevitable evolution of entertainment, and saying how they think Blizzard is the posterchild for it, and services similar to Steam are the future. Good, well-founded read: http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?artic...0866&page=1 Oh, and to put to rest the splash riddle: Edited June 28, 2008 by Krezack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Pretty awesome videos. I'd say it's probably out towards the end of 2009. They announced Starcraft 2 last year, right? Blizzard is pretty good about not leaking inforation until they are far along in development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moatilliatta Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Example screenshot: Linkified Hopefully they reduce the saturation a bit. I'm thinking that they should make it somewhat darker. D1 was extremely dark and very fitting for the game. The dungeon has extremely few lightsources and still it is about as dark as my computer room on a cloudy day. I'm trying to decide if that's Hale or not. Maybe I'm going crazy. Are you serious? I need to go back and listen and potentially chastise myself for not recognizing such a fine voice actress.

Moatilliatta Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I heard Adria is returning, though. WHERE? I'M USING CAPS BECAUSE ADRIA WAS AWESOME AND I NEED TO KNOW!

No. I heard Adria is returning, though. WHERE? I'M USING CAPS BECAUSE ADRIA WAS AWESOME AND I NEED TO KNOW! Unconfirmed. Have I been wrong so far? :D And yes, she was awesome.

Slowtrain Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Looks pretty cool. After skipping Diablo 2 due to my overkill on Diablo 1, I find the idea of palying Diablo 3 somewhat exciting. wheee *bounces* Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

tripleRRR Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 This looks FRIKKEN AWESOME! Using a gamepad to control an FPS is like trying to fight evil through maple syrup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) All looks well and good. But I'm a bit disappointed that it looks like you won't be able to customize your character's appearance at all. Not a huge deal, buts (imo) its nice in games that have a huge multiplayer aspect. Edited June 28, 2008 by Zero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humodour Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 That gameplay trailer is total sweet sauce. Looks like to pulled the good stuff from Dungeon Siege 1 and 2 without the bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moatilliatta Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 (edited) Dekkard's diary on the D3 site seems to suggest - similarly to D1 - that Adria is more than she let on and considering that they mention her there she might actually have an apperance in this game or a possible sequel. *crosses fingers* Also it seems that the canon is that Diablo was defeated by a group of heroes in D2. From what I can gather from the site, the gameplay video dungeon is Tristram Cathedral and I must say that I'm dissapointed in it being so illuminated, that clinches with what I remember of D1 and it could potentially be D3's biggest problem. Edit: What I mean is that a good atmosphere might be D3's biggest problem, not so much whether they get Tristram Cathedral completely right.

Moatilliatta Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Wait a second! They only have five character classes and the witchdoctor is very close to the necromancer... they've taken away my necromancer! From the FAQ: Will there be any other familiar faces in Diablo III (other than Deckard Cain)?Yes. Players will encounter several new characters as well as a number of characters from the previous games. I wonder if Warriv is still traveling with his caravan.

Humodour Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 They said there's still plenty of room for the Necromancer. If they don't add him now, they'll probably add him in an xpack. lol: What's Going On?Currently Active Users: 4275 (157 members and 4118 guests) View Who's Online Most users ever online was 5,854, Today at 07:30 AM.

Moatilliatta Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I don't think this has been posted: Just got out of an interview with Blizzard executive vice-president of game design Rob Pardo. He says Diablo III was in development way back when Blizzard North was still around. The game will still feature PvP online and nightmare modes. Player limits online have yet to be set. As of right now, Blizzard won't reveal any other character classes beyond the barbarian and the witch doctor. Pardo told me the number of total classes in D3 will be similar to D2's original release. Also, in Diablo 3 diablo makes a return (obviously) and takes place after the events of D2. Expect the full interview in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
