I am excited for the release of Diablo 3...i played the first 2 non stop before i got world of warcraft. If anyone has photo's of the game... trailers... opinions... or anything else go ahead and post it. How do you think the online play will be now that WOW has been so successful? Do you think they will put a lot of time and effort creating a great online world for play or do you think the single player will be emphasized more?

i have my share of doubts, especially since a rpg rookie is leading the development. no, i don't subscribe to all that Blizzard doesn't disappoint thing -- people make the game, brand name doesn't.

Well, first off i have to say that your grammer needs a little work. ( not to say mine is anything spectacular, but maybe you should try reading it out afterwards and see if it makes sense...) But beside that, once i actually realised what you were saying, i would have to dissagree on half of what you said and totally agree with the other half. I mean, why wouldn't you suscribe to the whole " Blizzard doesn't disappoint" thing. I don't know of a games they've made that has sucked, i mean it all comes down to your personally preference, tastes and likes, but they are all great games that were very polished. I guess if you looked into it more you would definatly get the sense of that as many people do( including me). But as most things in life, they aren't written in stone and anything can happen. But i've heard them say that they are in no rush to release the game, they are going to fine tune it as much. Besides, they've waited so long to finnally begin making the game, why not fine tune it and make one of the best, if not thee best rpg out( like with the previous diablo games.

But i totally agree with you about the "people make the game, the brand doesn't", but that doesn't mean the brand can't get the best people that work the hardest to the best game possible. I mean it has happened with other companies out there like EA, that made great games, but lately they've taken over other projects and "completely ruined them" because they are maybe more money focused, i'm not sure. But Blizzard seems different, for now....I mean they make a killing of WoW, but then you have to think, Blizzard is a big company, they have people working on the different games, diablo 3 has it's own group of determined people, possibly with different intentions then the other group of people( WoW for example), or atleast in our eyes.

Yah, i agree with you, and totally ignore my statement about your grammer and junk, i'm to lazy to delete it XD. But yah, just wanted to give my 2 cents.

I think diablo III will be awesome (online and single player). I never got too much into first two games, but after playing WC TFT for over 5 years and loving the hero-oriented gameplay, I can't wait to get my hands on DIII (I am even more excited about SC II).

As for people saying that it might disappoint - Blizzard never releases game that might not satisfy its fans (remember the SC: Ghost?). My only gripe with Blizzard is that it takes so damn long since the official unveiling till the release. Oh well, I'll just keep playing WC TFT on battle net.

Looks interesting and hopefully it would be good.. Seeing all these kids screaming about the graphics really screams hypocrisy.. No one played Diablo or any of blizzard games for the graphics ever.. Warcraft 3 didn't become a tournament competivie rts because of its "cartoony" quality..

Game looks awesome. It's good to be a ARPG fan :)

Sacred 2 should hopefully satisfy until Diablo 3.

Yeah, personally. Never played D I, played DII and loved it. Was an overall excellent game and, much like Starcraft II, I look forward to seeing how they have made a remarkable game even better.

Legitplaya dont bash on peoples grammar when yours is terrible as well. Its an online forum and who cares if people make mistakes as long as they are understandable.

"I don't know of a games they've made that has sucked, i mean it all comes down to your personally preference, tastes and likes, but they are all great games that were very polished. I guess if you looked into it more you would definatly get the sense of that as many people do( including me). But as most things in life, they aren't written in stone and anything can happen." Read your first sentance back outloud.... exactly. I got what OP asked and i didnt have to be a grammar nazi about it either.

I dont totally agree with his statement though. I think blizzard has a great way of game development that most companies these days do not use anymore. Instead of poping a new game out every year they wisely budget small ammounts of money to a project at a time and give more as more is needed thus not leaving stuff to run off and be wasted. They hire only the best employees as well so even if theres a newbie in charge, im sure they picked him for a reason. Blizz itself doesnt make the games but through the choices of employees and monetary spenditures that they make they intern leave very little to chance and have, until now, ended up with AAA games that review well and play splendidly.

I'm not quite sure having an RPG rookie on the team is that big of a deal. I mean seriously, the Diablo games barely qualify as RPG's. They are basically action games with RPG elements.

Look what what happened when the "veterans" of the Diablo series tried to make their own game...lol.

Yes "people" create the game, not the company. However, it's the management, budget, planning, ect that gives the "people" the ability to consistently produce and develop quality games.

Blizzard attracts some of the best people in the industry, and they have been in the business for a long time now. They picked this "rookie"...I am sure they have their reasons.

I grew up on the Diablo games. Diablo I and II we're fantastic, and like people said, i didn't really play for the graphics either. I mean i'm so glad they kept the same concept of gameplay and the camera angle. Any different and i would have been disappointed! But i really have faith in Blizz, like they said - it'll be released when its finished (or whatever). But from what i've seen so far the game looks very promising..!

From what I have been seeing it is evolving from the originals into a better action game and into a better rpg game..It will for sure be incredible, Blizzard will take their time as usual to make it perfect. They don't release a game that isn't ready.

Looks great!
I'm exited as Hell!

The only thing bad I can say about it so far is that we'll probably have to wait till late 09 or 2010 before we get to play it... :cry:

Rookies all have to start somewhere, and if this guy makes everyone fall in love with Diablo 3, you'll have yourselves THE rookie of the year. I'm an optimist, I have faith.

Besides, no Blizzard game has disappointed me yet. And I'm no fanboy, just a fan of their work. Big difference.
