Who'd have thought? Diablo 3 is coming
http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/
Actually looks good from the few things I can see right now. I knew Blizzard had something in the works due to that funky splash screen.

Re: Who'd have thought? Diablo 3 is coming
Yeah I saw it. Finally after several years of wait!! WOOOHOOO!!! I knew breaking the worldstone isn't a good thing. Shame on tyrael.
The trailer reminds me of lord of the rings movie though. Some of the places looks awefully like Gondor, the invasion of the orcs, and the balrog looks like the one from the movie also. I glad they bring back the barbarian class, some of the attacks looks devastating cool. The witch doctor looks like a hybrid from sorceress and necromancer. Did you notice the giant boss did a one hit kill? OMG!! I also couldn't help but notice how mobby the monsters are. That's all I can see before the website crashed on me. I guess many people was accessing the site. |

Try that one instead! Action RPG apologism aside, the art direction seems slightly off at the moment - bit too vibrant and bright for me. Definitely lacking the grit of D2. I'm sure that Blizzard will listen to any fan concerns though and that this game will smash most of its clones for sheer playability.

Re: Who'd have thought? Diablo 3 is coming
It's obvious this is made from the same creative team as the one who did World of Warcraft. You can even pretty much see characters wearing items from WoW, and some monsters like the big undead are pretty much right from it.
That said the graphics are pretty nice, and the gameplay look amazing. I can't wait for the game. And from the look of those videos, they can't be too far from release. This time I won't go online at retail one hour after the shops open. Hopefully they'll have a more stable launch, but the Diablo 2 one was horrible.

Think we will need to buy in a few more mice for the mad frantic 'clicking'

Re: Who'd have thought? Diablo 3 is coming
I sure will! But I may wait a day or two and let them put up the first stability patch.
I can't wait to see the other classes. I'm guessing the necromancer won't be back, or it's going to be pretty different than it was since the witch doctor has the undead pets now. Gotta love the wall of zombies.
