Who give's a crap?
If your a hardcore Diablo fan, like I am, you will get this game.
Cmon guys, I would want for it to be like Diablo 2 as much as you guys, but they have to move on, this is no expansion, it's a whole new game.. With a new development team.
It doesn't look like WoW, it has some features WoW has, so what? Diablo is an RPG, and will stay like that, WoW is a MMO, and it will stay like that.
Your bashing a game on how it uses fury instead of mana, it's a good move, because casters should have mana, not barbarians.
Skill tree's? Theres skill tree's in Diablo 2, why are you complaining?
And the inventory, I don't see anything wrong with it, like I said, its a whole new game.
The health orbs, I don't really care about it, as long as I gain health some way.
I know I will be getting this game day one, no matter WHAT.
And I know that there is millions of people out there like me, that can't wait to get their hands on this game.

Diablo = Diablo... WoW = WoW.

Stop comparing the two.

 

Even beyond that,  anyone that can't admit the amount of frustration that can be associated with playing on Hell difficulty in very difficult dungeons and dying simply because the game is too buggy to handle it.  Health pots not working how they should, etc.  (In before, your just not good at the game, etc) Anyone who has played D2 can attest to this being an annoyance. 

I want a total challenge with Diablo 3 (Like D1/D2 could provide on the hardest modes),  But I want the game to be a lot less buggy and more 'complete'.

 

This game has been in developement since 2006, im almost certain they will polish this game to the max.

You do realize that the Skill trees similar to WoW's talent trees nowadays? Also that the Barbarian mechanic is the exact same as the warrior mechanic in WoW. Also WoW is an RPG, more so than most RPGs out there tbh so comparing these 2 games is quite easy. I'mgetting the game, but my expectations have been heavily reduced than what they used to be. As I said, next thing you know they will add a melee damage calss (to replace assassin/amazon) that will use energy, just liek the rogues in WoW do. No thank you.

Well one game less I have to buy for my new PC. Good thing I didn't hype it up like I did it with Hellgate London (Oh boy that was a dissapointment)

I just hate literally everything about WoW.

And Wow skill tree was heavilly borrowed from D2 so it's just going full circle...( where do you think wow got the idea for 3 skills tree or stuff like whirlwind, corpse explosion and such ?).

All you're saying there is that D3 is taking stuff from D2 through Wow....

 



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

Actually initially those weren't skill trees at all, just outright talents. Now they became more like skill tress over the last 2 years. At the same time, D2 didn't have the "you need 5 in tier 1 to get tier 2" which would have just fucked up diablo 2 as well. The things I mentioned were in no form in Diablo 2, and only contributed to a number of problems in WoW.

I'll probably get this regardless of the changes. It isn't that big of a deal to me. They haven't failed the Diablo series yet and I wouldn't hold anything against them until the game is released (after having played it).



I understand it's your opinion.
But it's a whole new game, just get over it.

So it's no longer that you play the game, don't use your skill points at all while your leveling, let them stockpile, and then use them later on when your better spells are available.  Is that what you're complaining about?



Here's a video from my band's last show Check out more (bigger) videos here http://www.youtube.com/user/icemanout

I've never played WoW. Can someone explain to me how the skill trees in WoW differ from the ones in D2?



Signature goes here!

- No potions (I know mobs will drop health, but there's a world of difference between starting with a potion and hoping for a drop)

 

I just looked over one of the screenshots again, look closely.
