Diablo 3 announced

First 1 doesn't even count and you know I wasn't making a real comparison :|

As for the second the **** does the time of day have to do with the textures ? The point was the boss. Look at the boss in D3, and then look at H. R. Puffnstuff in the WoW screenshot. Besides its not night its raining. Rain = Clouds.

And the third, ok get rid of the aoe and the axe hitting and you still have the D3 dungeon compared to the bright ****fest in wow.
 
I think the main resemblance to WoW that a lot of people are complaining about is the blue and green ambient lighting in the dungeon. Personally, I really think it looks out of place and detracts from the mood that Diablo should have.

This I can agree with because there are some odd lighting sources coming in from a few places, but that can be fixed down the line im sure. I just think these people who think the game is identical WoW are insane and/or blind.
 
This comment just blew my hypocrisy meter...

How so?

I'm not attacking anybody's opinion on what the game should look like. Just this stupid shitty idea that anybody who might have an issue with it is some backwards idiot who wants to go back to the glory days of brown Quake 1 textures or wants their ****ing screen painted black and gray.

People like Rico epitomize this kind of retardation. So consider most of my ire directed towards him.
 
People like StarDog, you know the ones that are BLOWING THIS OUT OF PROPORTION??, should just stfu, tbh. Blizzard has an idea of what they WILL go for, so they will. You're pissing in your panties won't do shit but make everybody else sick of your crappy arguements. Talking about how the textures look like WoW *OMG THEY MADE THE GAME, WUT?!?!?!* and then complaining about a few colors/lightings is different. I agree, too bright in the video we saw, which is of course in ALPHA. Damn, gotta be perfect there.

Seriously, quit bitching about it and die. When it's in Beta, complain. But jesus ****ing christ, the game was ANNOUNCED a week ago!

*ninja edit*

What I was talking about.....you were saying "so and so people should **** off, while my opinion should be voiced!!! While it's THEIR Opinion to. Like I said, I agree with what you said, just the way you presented it seemed hypocritical.
 
Woah hold on a second Pitz, you might get insulted by someone who thinks that D3 is way too cartoony and that you know NOTHING about how real, dark, and deep the Diablo universe is.

WATCH IT BUDDY

No, I don't care about what people think about the game, I'm just sick of people complaining about every inch of the game when it's not even CLOSE to being done.

Who's to say the entire thing won't change in a year? What, you don't know? Go figure.
 
I was joking around bru D:

But yeah so...

About that witchdoctor? I loved that he was enhancing his minions with offensive spells. One with the swarm and in the bossfight he set one on fire with that fireball thing.
 
WOW LOOKS TOO MUCH LIKE DIABLO

THAT'S CLEARLY HARROGATH ON FIRE

I know, just figured I'd explain myself for S and Gs.

Yeah, the Witchdoctor looks good, but I bet it will go through a million balance points. I hope they don't overdue the Necro with em. The Necro was a great class. Personally, I'd rather have a BUNCH of classes to choose from, then 7. Obviously, it didn't take long for everybody to master every class. The more, the better the replayability, if they balance right.

Of course, I'm not saying Blizzard did a BAD job at balancing the classes, just coulda done a bit better.
 
I wonder if the Barbarian will be the only hero from D2 returning as a playable class. I figure we'll either get the Sorceress or the paladin back, but who knows about the rest.
 
I KNOW we'll see the sorc. Class is so played out, they would be suicidal to not include it.

Though, I know what you mean. I hope they keep most, but not all. The Amazon needs a lot of work, as it was *eh* to play.
 
Yeah some kind of caster class is in so it makes sense to just bring back the sorc. As for the amazon, it'll probably end up as some kind of mix between a rogue and the assassin class for traps and such. A Ranger basically.
 
That's what I thought the Amazon was at first, actually.

"OMG, the Rogue is an Amazon now, SWEET!"

Yeah, how disappointing. Either way, I hope to be apart of the development cycle by seeing what was going on from the start.

Oddly enough, I didn't watch SC2 from the beginning of an announcement. I feel dirty for that.
 
oh shi-

I hope to god blizzard doesn't pull the "CORRUPTED HERO STORY LINE #24" shit and Tyreal ends up being corrupted or something. Everyones expecting it, so im hoping blizz goes somewhere else with the story line.
 
Yeah, I mean, lets look at previous games, shall we?

Kerrigan - Infested Kerrigan
Arthas - fagg0t Arthas
now Tyreal - Evil Tereal?

I mean, come on, just because he has doubts about how shit is done in the Heavens at the end of D2, doesn't mean he will be evil, RIGHT????? RIIIIIGGHHTT??

God I hope not. That's one reason I hate playing WC3 story. Arthas is fkn Kerigan.
 
Well to be fair though Kerrigan is the only innocent one.

Arthas was a HUGE ****ing dick motivated purely by blind revenge (combined with greed for power). If Jaina or Uther had been corrupted by Frostmourne, it would be a different story. But Arthas was a huge, huge, arrogant asshole even before grabbing the sword.

And hell basically the entire roster of Diablo 1 gets corrupted in some shape or form. From the rogue and sorceror becoming bosses to the warrior becoming diablo himself. Even Griswold becomes a boss D:

No one still has any clue what happened to Adria. Perhaps she will make a return to the series.

Your mom looks like Warcraft.

o snap

Any way... I get the impression the witch doctor class acts as a sort of necromancer replacement. I'm cool with it. But I better be able to raise some effin' skellies! At least there's always the inevitable expansion goodness.
 
Like I said before though, that meteor came from the sky. I really do think it could be Tyreal as a fallen angel. It may not mean that he's become corrupt or evil, just banished from heaven.
 
I'm definitely banking on Adria returning. Cain's journal on the site devotes a whole page to her and there's no point in it being a red herring.

Gotta admit she looked hotter in the artwork than I originally imagined her little pixelated character to be.

Agreed, Evil Tyrael would be lame. Plus Diablo story and lore is already rife with corruption story's, King Leoric, The Arch-Bishop Lazarus, The Warlord of Blood, Izual, Tal Rasha, The Wanderer, Blood Raven, the Zakarum High Council, probably more than a few in The Sin War and that's just off the top of my head.
Not that corruption tales aren't part of Diablo's charm ;)

She'll make a return I'm sure. Even back in Diablo 1 it was hinted that she knew more about what was going on than she let on.

Don't forget Illidan, Kael'thas and soon Malygos.
Blizz love to rape their own story if it gives them an excuse for content without coming up with something original.

Please don't jump in on arguments when you don't have a clue what you're talking about. You tell us to shut up, yet you're the one who's extending it with stupid posts like this. Lemme guess what you're next post will be - "omgggoth let it rest already wtfff???/..." The irony.

Find where I've told anyone to shut up before they've already told me previously.

If you could read, you'd know it was the other two who were telling guys like me to shut up, and started with the insults and sarcastic images. Get a clue.

Yeah WoW's story has gone all over the place since the expansion.

Hopefully they wont shit on Diablo lore though.


Oh and blizzard better fix the goddamn 5 so it doesn't look like a 6 in whatever font they use for item description.

I've played D2 for years and this still annoys the hell out of me.

I have yelled from the mountains about these travesties.

So... god damn... true.

Also, let's kill the greatest troll hero ever for a ****ing redneck. :flame:
 
Is that the troll you had in your sig?
Also what happened exactly, a linky to an explanation is fine too.
 
Zul'jin was a hero unit in Warcraft 2. He was responsible for uniting all the forest troll tribes and aligning himself with Doomhammer's Horde; an offer he initially refused until they saved him from elven internment. Admittedly, he eventually withdrew into seclusion, although the reasons are different depending on who you ask. Some say he fled like a coward when he felt the Horde failed him, but others say he withdrew out of shame when the trolls began to devolve into their old petty squabbles underneath his command.

My opinion of him may be colored based on the fact that trolls are my favorite race in Warcraft. But vanilla WoW consistently painted him as a hero that the trolls awaited for (see Raventusk quests, Hakkari captive on Yojimba Isle, troll /charge emote). I reckoned he would have made a perfect tie to the eventual Zandalar unveiling. But instead of coming back as a uniter, perhaps tempered by his previous failures, Blizzard sought fit to turn him into a territorial Amani hermit. And to add further insult to injury, you don't even take him out in an important quest line ala MC or BWL. No, you just invade his home to collect loot for some greedy unimportant asshole who doesn't even praise your efforts.

It wouldn't be so bad if the trolls had some other great figure for their race. But all we have is Vol'jin, who might as well be a piece of furniture in Thrall's chamber who does absolutely **** all. Trolls are basically just generic enemies and instance fodder at this point. Zul'jin's just another lorelol the developers roll out for new content.

.

Yes, god damn it yes.
It was probably because of the resolution that made the font so squished together.
 
Players will run out of bosses to farm if Blizzard doesn't kill off every big name in the Warcraft universe! Fuck writing out detailed lore for new bosses, they'll just take the easy route.
 
In the beginning it was alright, you had fights like Ragnaros, Onyxia, Nefarion, and Cthun. Once BC rolled around was when they said "**** it lets just use old characters for bosses Im tired of writing this shit"
 
How horrible. Have they ruined any of the nice characters, because I care most about them?

HAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA

Are you freaking kidding me? That was the best you could come up with? My god, are you that bent on hating on everybody? Please, just....hahahaha. Classy.

*on topic*

Not sure who that is, I'm guessing from WoW?
 
Malygos is the Blue Dragon Aspect im pretty sure. From the info we've heard about WotLK he'll probably become a farmed boss too.
