I dont like look of Lineage Etereal. Yes, it is more sharp and realistic, but that doesnt automatically mean more fun. I like D3 couloured, "paint-like" vibrant style with lots of blood and stuff and its very hectic fast gameplay. Etereal looks like Titan Quest - nice graphics, but the game just aint fun.

Apparently this is the opening cinematic of Diablo III.

Doesn't tell us anything we don't already know, but hey, more wailing chicks.

Nope... get all achievements ? get better level 13 gear ?

been playing the beta, leveled a Witch Doctor to 13 and killed Skeleton King with the other 4 characters

I like what I'm experiencing with D3 and I don't mind being forced to choose/use only 6 skills, but not being able to hotkey all the skills to the LMB or RMB so I can switch and use all of them with just mouse buttons REEKS OF FUCKING CONSOLIZATION GAME DESIGN DECISION MAKING

it's obvious a technology thing with this being available in D2 but not in D3

No, this is done on purpose to limit you. The game is balanced around being able to use only 6 skills at a time. This is done INSTEAD of talent trees. Instead of only a limited number of useful skills on a single character (based on what you have pumped talent points into), you are just literally limited by what you can hotkey at any given time.

I don't mind only being able to use 6 skills

what I want though is to have the option to hotkey bind all 6 skills to LMB and/or RMB and then use the hotkeys to switch between whatever skills I want to use with LMB/RMB

i wonder if its possible to find some sort of cliff notes version of what happened in D1 and D2

i hate picking up a sequal without knowing what happened in the last 2 games but i dont really like the UI and graphics of D1 and D2 enough to play through the entire game just to learn the story

D1, warrior who will become known as the "Wanderer" shows up and kills Diablo

D2, watch the cinematics in order or read wikipedia

here's extremely simplify version of what I remembered at the end of d2, completely forgot about d1.

baal summons world crystal thingy, threaten to destroy the world. you killed him but didn't make it on time, some angel came down and sacrifice(?) himself to shatter the stones, but its too late either way.

and alot of corruptions along the way. some D2 bosses and quests were basically classes from D1 that were corrupted and such. I'm guessing we'll see the fates of D2 classes/heros too in D3

Diablo 2 Lore


The first video is pretty much just comical. But in the spoiler tag, there are three videos that are pretty interesting. I learned a bit that I did not know after watching them.

Diablo 15th Anniv with lore video.

So yeah, there is an assortment of videos that should give you an idea. Laslty, I will post just one more. This will be the Blizzcon Lore Panel that talks a bit about the lore. There are potential spoilers in the panel due to the demons being mentioned.

Blizzcon Lore Panel

In terms of lore, I think all of those resources should give a good idea of what's going on. Of course, as mentioned above. The cinimetic clips work as well.
