www.diablofans.com is the absolute best site for Diablo III news, bar none. The guys that run it often have direct contact with Jay Wilson and other Blizzard representatives, and are super on the ball when it comest to tracking down fresh news.

And the Diablo Wiki Link at the top of that page's site will take you to a pretty damn good compilation of what is already known/confirmed.

alright thanks guys, what do you think the best aspect of a fansite is? no ads? streamlined databases? up to date news? or something else?

I'd say up to date and accuracte information is the strongest factor. No ads is pretty high up there :)

I don't think anyone really knows that, Blizzard seems to be keeping it under wraps pretty well. Even in the beta I bet they won't have any real spoilers in terms of the plot and whatnot. I'd just keep checking the news sites often, that's where all of its likely to be.

I say, keep it under wraps. Like what CD Projekt RED has done with The Witcher 2. I don't want to know all the goodies, just the basics. :D

Haha yeah, Diablo has always been one of those awesome games to play with your friends, up to 4 according to d3sanc.com and numerous other sites. D3 is going to be just another one of Blizzard's awesome party games :D

Diablo, it's related entirely to that comet from the first trailer, but that's it, there's something dark about that comet and it brought Diablo back, anything beyond that isn't known yet.

Diablo is definitely the final boss. We don't have anything except CG and concept art pictures of him, but they've alluded to him so many times it's a foregone conclusion at this point. As to the story, Hell is apparently waging an all out war on the planet, and you're doing your best to stop them.

Act 1 starts you in New (Old?) Tristram, where you will delve into the monastery from the original game. Not sure if it's there, or somewhere else, but you'll fight King Leoric who is now the skeleton king.

Act 2 is set in a desert (again...?)

Acts 3 and 4 have no official information on them as of yet, aside from the fact that Blizzard has confirmed parts of Act 3 have appeared in various screenshots and or gameplay footage. Enjoy.

Once again, www.diablofans.com and the Diablo Wiki linked to it are excellent sources for Diablo III info.

No one knows the details, but we kind of know the big picture.

*****possible spoilers*****

In Diablo 2, heroes killed Andarial and Duriel. These are both considered lesser evils. There are four lesser evils total, and two of them were not seen in Diablo 2. Many assume the remaining two lesser evils will be the Act 1 and Act 2 bosses in Diablo 3.

At the end of Lord of Destruction, the worldstone was destroyed by Tyrael. Well the rumors are the worldstone is what largely prevented demons from getting into Sanctuary. With it destroyed, there is now a hole in its place where demons can freely pass into Sanctuary. Current speculation is that Tyrael has been possessed by Diablo and may possibly be the Act 3 boss.

Prime evils cannot be killed. In Diablo 2 they were only banished from Sanctuary. However, with the hole in the remains of Mount Arreat they are free to re-enter the mortal realm. This would mean the Act 4 boss could be one of the prime evils, all three at once, or maybe even some monstrosity where they all combine into one godly demon.

Keep in mind there is really no solid proof of these claims. They are just what people think is possible based on the lore and what's been seen in the limited Blizzcon demos.

Diablo 3 will be shelved or made into a pay to play format

DeViLzzz

Strange, outlandish, totally unsupported assertation inc.

They've already said it's coming out, and it's either due out this year or early next. I'm quoting actual sources here. And they have already confirmed it's not pay to play. So... really not sure where you're getting those ideas, but they must have been a dream you had, because Blizzard disagrees. Kk gg.

I know man I can't wait, but the beta is actually due between July 1 and September 30 which **HOPEFULLY** could result in a 2011 release depending on the feedback from the beta. Definitely possible, but if not, an early 2012 release is almost definite then.

Even if I WAS in the beta I still wouldn't play it for 2 reasons: 1- the download probably is big and can't be bothered downloading 2- don't want the beta to ruin any part of it... :)

I'm going to do the beta because it's fun to be able to look back at what it was like then after you've been playing awhile. Diablo II beta was lightyears behind where it is now, or even where it ended up five years ago, etc. Also... I just need something to satisfy my Diablo III fix, which hasn't had a hint of satisfaction in ten years, if you know what I mean ;)

Next, I've never heard of this other game, so it's sort of impossible for me to be excited about it. Post a link or something.
