The TL forums have been full of people complaining about various features (or lack of features) that hinder SC2's ability to be an eSport. In spite of that it has succeeded wildly as an eSport because it is a great, well-balanced game with a high skill ceiling and is relatively easy for a lay-person to watch and understand, same as SC:BW. Don't try and tell me Brood War was designed from the ground up for eSports. | ||

One thing they should keep in mind about WoW is that the quest tracker/compass/arrows/etc. are all liked because players don't want to waste any time doing unnecessary shit or killing things they don't have to. Diablo is all about exploring and killing extra shit, and it's often necessary because you'll be too weak if you just go for the quests. I think the game would be better without that stuff, and with a more traditional quest screen/map. | ||

Blood thirst will work nicely with Whirlwind and cleave, Animosity will help me save up alot more rage so i can constantly throw shit without worrying too much.. and unforgiving is meant to buffer that. thoughts? :D Also if anyone hasn't noticed... the white rune is a Panda face ; 0 :updated it with runes : ) | ||

I think the game would be better without that stuff, and with a more traditional quest screen/map. Really? I fail to see the similarities, I mean sure there might be some things that are the same, they've probably learned a lot from making wow but the main points (for me) seem to be the really fast and brutal gameplay compared to wow which is rather slow/kid friendly in regards to blood, violence etc, as well as the ambience which is really dark and moody in diablo. Really, I'm sure people will disagree here because they haven't played the game but compare D3 to wow or even D2, it's really atmospheric and has that creepy diabo.-feel all through it. However I agree that those quest arrows are redundant.. sure they want to make it easy for casual players but I hope there's an option to turn that off. | ||

Just feels like blizz wants the barb to be a MF character.. Maybe it's because the barb sucks at killing hords of enemies compared to the other classes, like the wizard | ||

I cant wait for this, been looking forward to a loot-fest time-waster for awhile for when I just have a few to play or Im tired and brain dead. Just updated my beta settings, I was invited to the sc2 beta fairly soon after it started so here's to hoping the luck continues! | ||

Indigo Runed Cleave draws in enemies from up to 26 yards away, Whirlwind was THE AoE skill of early D2 and Seismic Slam/Rend/Ground Stomp/Earthquake all do AoE damage? If D2 is anything like D3 (which is still undercertain at this point), best drops come from bosses/elite units, for which the durable barb would be very suited, seeing as he can ignore the group and go for the boss kill directly. Anyways, I think these things will probably be tuned down so that their difference isn't that important. Blizzard is actively trying to avoid the same MF mistakes as in D2, so I assume the extra gains will be minimal. | ||
