D3 was announced in 2008, went on sale in 2012 But they DID say in the past they announced games way too early and it fizzled out the hype after so many years of waiting. I'm not saying 2020, but hopefully 1st half of 2021... Anyway, I have very cautious optimism for this. edit: Combat still seems like Diablo 3, I was hoping for a complete overhaul. Albeit it is a bit more bloody. Triple-layer skill customization: Skill tree, skill levels, + Runes (not exactly diablo 3-like) Non-linear Acts. You can choose where to go first... on a mount (so far a horse was shown). 5 zones to choose from, for now. 5 classes for release: Barb, Sorc, Druid... and 2 unannounced ones. Classes can be boy/girl as Diablo 3, but far more customization: skin color, faces, hair color, hair style. | ||

Do any of you remember the challenge of D2 ironman mode? Where people were trying to beat the game in hell difficulty on hardcore with only using self-found non-magical broken gear? That's right, you weren't even allowed to use normal stuff that wasn't broken. But that was for extreme freaks. For regular folk just finishing the game on hell difficulty was ultra hard and doing it in hardcore mode was actually a badge of honor that garnered much respect. I've played every single Diablo game pretty extensively and to this day I believe I've sunk the most hours into D1 (and it's the only one that I still have installed). | ||

so you can do exactly the same thing but on a higher difficulty... They better not have difficulty anymore. Like I get it's... tricky... to compete with a microtransaction heavy game or produce the same amount of content for an initial release, but why would you want to replay the same content in higher difficulty anymore? Path of Exile already makes it clear how much better a single once through campaign is. | ||

Path of Exile already makes it clear how much better a single once through campaign is. And path of exile showed that you can recycle the same content and reuse it in leu of making completely new zones for the faux repeated playthrough. I'm more interested in the loot system then anything. A lot of AAA titles have had terrible loot systems recently and I seriously worry about D4 being the same or even being more of the same like borderlands. | ||

 It seems to have quite a few D2 nods, which makes me happy... I far preferred D2 to D3. Even if the release date isn't for a few years, it'll be worth the wait, as long as it's done right. I wish Blizzard North was still around though. | ||

Also I love them going back to their more original dark, bloody and gritty design. Diablo 3 while it looked good never felt fitting to its universe. I am really happy and I hope we can enjoy the f*** out of it! | ||

1. In certain screens game looks like those silly mock-ups of D3 with de-saturated colors and lowered brightness. 2. Barbarian looks almost the same to D3 one. What new barb skill did we see? There was Seizmic slam, played in D3. Leap slam, also old one. WotB, played it in D3. Has anyone seen something new and exciting about barb? I mean, you could say 4 weapon slots is exciting, but honestly I think this will be even more silly than monk carrying a 2H weapon and using fist for all skill animations. Imagine binding dagger to Seizmic slam animation. 3. From the brief looks at the items, it seems very similar to D3 style of itemization. 4. Only 1234, LMB+RMB on quickbar? What year is this? 5. Characters stats still seems to be centered around Attack/Defense/Life. I guess we will yet again be stacking str/vit on barbs. | ||
