Today Blizzard Put up a Diablo 3 website, I've been waiting for like 10 years.

[Frag0holic]

I about came in my pants, watching the juicy vids now

[DarkShadow]

I concur, FAP FAP FAP.

[DarkShadow]

the Gameplay video with the barb using whirlwind = lol I just came.

[J.Pizzack]

hehe they been flooding the other bilzzard domains(Worldofwarcraft.com) with all these misleading splash screens...wierd symbols, some covered in ice eluding to either wow expansion details, or possibly SC2 info....but 2 days ago some blizzard exec couldnt deny the D3 announcement, so the whole marketing got kinda ruined lol.

Looks pretty cool atho i didnt play in the past.

[DarkShadow]

Those *Weird Runes* are Actually of Frostmourne (WoW), the Protoss thing (Starcraft 2), and a Rune from Diablo (Diablo 3)

imo, I think their going to try and release all 3 within the same year, it'd be surprising, but needless to say, D3 already looks just as polished as SC3, and I think thats enough justification to jizz all over the place, d3 d3 d3 fap fap fap zomg

[Raccoon00]

Yay! i just got done watching the videos, its very pretty and lots of gore which i like..

but im just wondering if its going to be 15$ a month like wow..

[J.Pizzack]

everyone on the wow forums seems to think no fee, since its not considered real MMO play. But i suggest not being jewish since it's a blizzard game.

but im just wondering if its going to be 15$ a month like wow..

I'd pay it


Blizzard cinimatics always make me cum in my pants, i came so hard i needed a fire hose to clean my monitor.
Holy fuck its almost here YES YES YES YES YES ASDASDAWEQWDASDQWEASDa


OMFG I CANT WAIT YES YES I CAME I CAME HARD BUT IT WAS SO GOOD

[MainEvent]

That... Is... Absolutely... Amazing.

[DarkShadow]

Why the fuck would you even think of there being a fee? seriously, it isn't an MMO.

[MainEvent]

I really like how the panel is centered and isn't f*cking cluttered with random sh*t, like WoW.

I wonder how many character classes they are going to have.

[DocSeuss]

I wonder how many character classes they are going to have.

5.

So it seems like they are combining some classes.

I am pumped for this game. Played way too much d2 freshmen year of college.

Thank F***ing god. Now I don't have to resort to sitting here pressing the 1 button all day in WoW.

[wondergod]

That one blue fat character that turns to eels is hot.

But ya Diablo has always had visuals that looked hot. I don't usually even care for that style of game but I've bought D1, D2 just to look at the purty.

Although I would love to see all 3 released in the same year, I dunno, they might burn their own hand by doing so...but ya...hopefully they do.

Why the f*ck would you even think of there being a fee? seriously, it isn't an MMO.

...Cuz hellgate, which has a similar theme to the Diablo series and was made by some of the same people, considered it for a long time since there is considerable online play involved. It came down to certain special things (such as certain items, including an item much like the horadric cube) being unlocked if you payed a monthly fee (there are numerous other benefits, but I fail to remember them). Then you must remember that Hellgate was made by (sort-of) a third-party Blizzard team...these ARE Blizzard peeps; the wondrous WoW money-makers. It has been a gift for them to not charge anything for the D1 and D2 servers that are still up and running (thankfully, free of charge still). But after WoW, I'm with the paranoid bunch that there will be a monthly fee...at least for the online play. I just hope otherwise...or at least hope for a FAIR fee...

[DarkShadow]

Hellgate isn't released by Blizzard, just because its a *wannabe d2 product* doesn't have fuckall to do with D3

[EVIL Shenanigans]

I realize Hellgate wasn't a Blizzard product...it WAS made possible by Flagship Studios. And now I bring a wiki quote:

Flagship Studios is a computer game company founded by Bill Roper along with Max Schaefer, Erich Schaefer, and David Brevik, the original developers of Diablo and former high level Blizzard North executives. The core of Flagship Studios has been collaborating as a team since 1993 when they founded Condor Studios (later bought out and renamed Blizzard North) and in addition to the Diablo franchise were key high level executives in the development of Warcraft, Starcraft, and World of Warcraft.

Now, given that WoW brought in, and still is bringing in, massive amounts of money, I would think that Blizzard would notice that, if they make a good enough product, people will throw away money into it...straight into their pockets. You may go and argue that 'Well, WoW is a MMO and nothing like Diablo!' which i most certainly agree with that fact, but then here comes a 'wannabe d2 product' that IS somewhat similar to the Diablo series that has limited content available to paying subscribers...and people are buying into it. Granted Hellgate is a more-or-less failure especially when compared to Blizzards babies which will most definatley receive a grander opening, but i still fear the WoW addicts have taught Blizzards Acounting Department a terrible lesson...and its not like history has proven otherwise. Just my thoughts and paranoia...

And now that I've watched the vids, I agree it is most jiztastic...

[DarkShadow]

blizzard doesn't go out of their way to break the money makers though, charging for something that is currently free is not how they do things, if anything WoW just aids them in producing other games.

now obviously your not thinking that SC3 will be pay to play, so why d3? You have no logic, at all.

[MainEvent]

Even if there was a monthly fee, I doubt hey would lose many customers.
