"Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime stated that Starcraft II and the new WOW expansion would launch in 2010 but not Diablo III."


Ima go cry now.

Their top priority is to nerf everything.

Kripp nailed it. Simply nailed it. I hope blizz actually listens to this guy, even though it would take forever to implement these things, if they EVER can.

For those who don't know, Kripp and his friend were the first two players to clear Hardcore Inferno all the way through last week.

nerf gear means less money for Blizzard though

Personally I thought the skill system sucked. They said their intent was for people to play multiple specs, wrong. You were/are pigeon holed into the same basic spec to live long enough to take out a couple mobs before getting 1 shot. And the whole idea of Diablo is grinding gear and in D3 you have to farm mobs to stack MF and if you change specs you lose all your stacks, pigeon holing you even more.

I never understood the people saying that Diablo 3 has more versatility in the skill system than Diablo 2. With the introduction of 1.10 and skill sync's you could make multiple builds. Then they brought in tokens that could be made by essences dropped by 4 bosses, allowing you to respec at any time instead of having to make a new character.

But people always want to bring up Diablo 2 at release vs Diablo 3, like its cool that the Diablo 3 team released a game thats inferior to something that was released 10 years ago.

he's got it pretty much spot on, but this is a mass appeal game and that wouldn't work with this community. I doubt blizzard would do any of that at this point.

The fact that you lose all your stacks when you change specs never jived with me. Almost as dumb as the repair cost increase IMO. If your spec isn't working and you want to change even one rune then you lose your hard earned stacks? That's ultimate idiocy right there. You're supposed to need to change your way of thinking to progress, not slam your head against a forced spec. I've grown tired of this game to where id rather pay to play WoW or ToR again just so I can level at my own terms. PvP won't do a thing to the game, it'll continue to frustrate gamers and only loyal fanboys will defend or try to reason with a great franchise that was given an irreparable black eye that is Diablo 3.

"Basically Diablo 2 with less features."

Sad but true.

So Guild Wars 2 set a release date of Aug 28th.

I suspect quite a few will quit play D3 and play GW2.

The people who are going to quit D3 will have quit long before Aug 28.

I'd get it but I have a mac and I don't think they are doing a mac version. And I'm not installing windows and parallel or whatever the **** it is.
