I'm surprised no one has said "I Told You So" yet.
Anyway, this looks fucking AWESOME. Barb has always been my main and I'm more than happy with him now. Did anyone else notice that there were no giant purple monsters? This is a big step for Blizzard...
Okay so I decided to read the whole topic for once and as soon as I noticed the "Did anyone else notice there were no giant purple monsters?" I knew I would have to quote it. They have about 4 monsters currently released, and did you notice that the Witch Doctor used purple? It is highly likely there will be atleast 1 Purple monster, and that's not bad, because monsters arn't real and they should have a look that fits them, if purple is a colour that would really emphasize a monster, then purple it must be.
Diablo 3 is currently in pre-alpha. There's no way they're going to release a game as incomplete and horrible looking as it is right now. It wouldn't even compare to that crappy diablo clone Titan Quest as it is.
I do not believe they will be releasing it anytime soon, but quite to the contrary I think that they have most of the Diablo III functionality down. You can select spells, cast spells, pick up items, equip items, there are item drops, you can move, the monsters can die, cast spells, move, fall off sides, interact with the surroundings and what not... much of what is left is making graphics for the monsters and customizing each monster, but most of the core functionalities will be inherited, so though it seems not too far, you could very well be wrong.
Yes, All this WoW Hype has gotten old lol.
If you don't play WoW and don't visit WoW sites, then you hear no hype. I have in all this time of it being out only heard 1 group of people outside of the internet talking about it. Maybe you need to lay off the internet or something?
It looks like D3 is much farther along than SC2.
As I mentioned up there I somewhat agree, though I could be wrong, SCII has a lot less functions you could inhert from a root class and thus needs a lot more customization.
It looks like D3 is much farther along than SC2.
I'm fucking sick of sheep saying this already. How the fuck can you say this based off a 20 minute gameplay video and several 20 second demonstrations? They've shown you two classes and eight skills between them and you say the game is further along? WTF?
As I've once again already mentioned, core functions can be inherited, customization is what will be painful, adding monsters should be a lot easier then making what they've already got, and they probably already have a lot more done, just not showing it yet, remember, SCII has had a lot more time to show off what they've done, DIII can probably release a whole bunch of enemies, boss information, storlines, etc... in no time.
I'd rather not break my mouse this time. Count me out.
Get good at clicking?
This is so cool. I'm definetely getting this, even though I haven't played either of the diablo's.
I recommend you play the other ones, but play D1 before D2 otherwise you may no longer like D1.

It will never beat the first Diablo.
Really? I always liked D2 more than Diablo1.
Both are very different, D1 was more going through dungeons with parties and killing monsters, D2 was about getting items, getting stronger then dueling, D1 has a better atmosphere but D2 has a faster action.
The people that are saying SCII looking similar to WC3 or the thing isn't looking better than D3, seriously didn't take a close look.
I agree with this but probably not the same point as you. I reckon all 3 games deserve their own look, Diablo II is based around prime evils and corruption, burning cathedrals and the whole package, Warcraft 3 is based off a fantasy world where at times it may be gloomy, but at other times you may be thriving and sunny, SC/SCII are more orientated around Space Domination, they deserve a more technological effect to them.
None.
