Blizzard actually changed the Tanks to a different scheme to look better. It looks a bit better now. The Bunker still looks shabby.

But the point is. Just because Blizzard doesn't listen to every complain and change them, even if they are popular, doesn't mean they don't listen.

And also. I wouldn't play Diablo III if its changed to the point where it doesn't feel like Diablo II.

I want to play Diablo III, not a next generation mmo. Blizzard doesn't listen to fans yet over 8 million players play a game that they have to pay?

And lastly. One of the prime reason but not the only reason, is that since it was made by the creators of Diablo people thought it was going to be like Diablo III so they went out and bought it, however, they were

ted because it was not.

I was

ted because it was too much like Diablo, if you've played it you'd know it's basically Diablo with guns.

Blizzard only listens to their fans if it's A) a minor change or B) If it's popular enough to increase sales.

That's the reason I hated that ****ing game. It was Diablo in first person. Besides, when I played that game it felt like there was no point to it at all. Everything about that game screamed Diablo. The Inventory, the skill trees, everything,

^^Yea played it for like 2 hours and felt betrayed almost by the game lol, as far as D3 goes we will definitely expect it to be like WoW because it worked, of course with it changes and things to make it seem more unique.

For me Diablo 2 was a training ground for WoW because when the technology was available they adapted a diablo 2 theory into wow.

I personally think a Diablo3 with wow inspiration would be great with the diablo backdrops and surroundings.

The more I think about it, the more I think it will be a totally new game. I don't think it makes financial sense to make a D3 when WOW is such a cash cow. I am guessing they will follow that format more then the D2 format. If they call it D3 and it follows the D2 format how long will they keep updating the servers? will it lag out like we see on D2? Or will they charge a monthly fee?

With that in mind, we would like to invite Diabloii.net readers to submit their questions for us to ask Blizzard.

This is extremely exciting for all of us here at Diabloii.net. For the past 10 years we have been supporting the Diablo community and to have something completely new to sink our teeth into is fantastic. We will be at the show on Saturday for the announcement and also the press conference which is directly after, so expect reports from the show floor live, interviews and much more.

Hmmm..

This is an exact repost of what i said in the news section, but prolly no one reads that section so..copy/paste.

Seems to me like it's going to be a new diablo.

Also the hidden picture seems to resemble certain developers website logo.

I just thought of something. For those with SCIII (Maybe I nshould say Soul Caliber instead), y'all can remember the four unlockable stages with the different circumstances. Wouldn't it be a twist to have to duel in a place where you could slip out the ring? To have to get someone against a wall for optimal damage? To play bootleg Tekken Ball (volleyball, Tekken 3)?

You know, I'm just saying....
