Trophy hunter. :ermm:

;)

The whole griefing thing is one of the reasons I avoid playing on battle.net. I do not want to deal with some high level character or whatever deciding to screw me over non stop til I just give up.

Using a gamepad to control an FPS is like trying to fight evil through maple syrup.

sorry about that :p

In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum.

Which is why we have Open Battlenet for those of us who like hacked games or Closed Battlenet for those who like to play legit and feel safe and secure with their comfy blanket. :yes:

You mean those of us who have enough skill to get to level 47 without hacking it in (and then bragging about it on a forum)? :rolleyes:

 

Don't get me wrong - I've played Diablo with hacked chars and items. It was fun for a day or two until I grew up.

Leaching off Secret Cow Level runs could get you over lvl 60 in under 30 minutes easily (all legit too :rolleyes:). I believe they made changes so it wasn't as viable to do though -- but I stopped playing before those changes happened.

Demons are nothing - cows are tough beasties!

Bah. She ain't too hacked otherwise she wouldn't have got killed when it mattered. My characters are hacked to the point that I'm hard to kill, not impossible. God mode sucks. I need some risk to keep it interesting. Above all I hate to reload.

Yeah, after that lets go speedhack CounterStrike. I mean, you're not INVINCIBLE, just massively overpowered. But there's risk!

Funniest thing is, there's no freaking reload function. It's a persistent world as long as the game is online.

 

And I could have completely obliterated some lousy sorceress melee build back in the day. Then I started to realize how freaking crappy open bnet actually was, it was a lot more comfy and interesting to form a group that wouldn't backstab you at every moment and one that you'd know face to face in real life. It's always treat to brag to a real face, instead of AOL-speaking "lol intarwebs" anonymites.

Michael Chu, ex-Obsidian designer(KotOR2, NWN2) is a quest designer on D3.

 

IGN: What do you do as the lead world designer, and what have you worked on in the past in that respect?

 

Leonard Boyarsky: As lead world designer I'm responsible for the lore of the game, the history, the story. I work with a quest designer named Michael Chu, who's had a lot of experience in the RPG industry. We make sure that through the quests the story's being conveyed to the player. We also work very closely with the art department to make sure - y'know, they'll come to us and say to us 'what's going on with this civilisation or that civilisation, what's the history?' Because there's a lot of ruins and building up on cities that have been around for a long time. So, building a world

So, you could almost say Blizzard is working with Obsidian to make best possible Diablo game ever! Woohoo!

This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.

I'm pretty excited for this classic to come back. I really like how Blizzard (now Acti/Vivendi/Blizzard :lol: ) is updating and adapting their older classics and coming out with sequels. This and starcraft 2 are going to log a lot of my time. Without hacks for sure on my first playthrough...

Atleast they've gone so far as to hire talented dev's. I can't knock that.

Boyarsky went from artist to game designer. Yay. :thumbsup:

Seems like there are going to be some good rpgs/mmos coming out. I never got into WoW but I liked Diablo 2, loved Kotor1-2 and Mass effect. All of those are now getting sequels or other iterations of the franchise.

We will probably wait years until the game is actually released, but my appetite is already whetted!
