Diablo 2 already was shit compared to the first part. Seeing how Blizzard more and more caters to skilless newbies Diablo 3 will be even less Hack'n'Slay, but more stupidly running around collecting items. No thx.

Diablo 3 for sure, i just can't wait to sit down and just rape mobs with awesoem abilities and grp up with my old d2 buds. Starcraft 2 is fun in a different way, it's more competitive.
Diablo 3 is just made for the fun-factor more than anything else, which is why i'll probably enjoy it more than SC2, you can just sit down and have fun without having to invest alot of hours in order to become "good".

D3 for me. There are some things about SC2 that i don't like but D3 is a whole new world, a new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go

I <3 Raynor - SC2 for definite, that said I will certainly be looking forward to D3 nearer release.

im too old for sc2... don't have the super competitive spirit anymore

pff you aren't that old, my brother is a week older than you and he will probably play SC2. In fact even our other older brothers will probably play. You still got a good run left in you.

I won't be able to play either game for a couple years, but I think that will give time for sc2 to breathe.

What's with the Diablo bashing over requiring no skill? That's the freaking point. It's a hack 'n slash dungeon crawler. It's meant to be played at a lan with buddies while eating pizza and wiping the grease off on your shirt. It's a FUN game. It's not meant to be competitive and those that make it so are missing the point.

That being said, I look forward to SC2 a good deal more. It'll probably be the only game I play until D3 comes out.

I like SC better than Diablo, but i have this feeling that BW > SC2 and DIII >>>>>> DII.

StarCraft's appeal is all about competitive gaming, and i think this is going to suffer because of MSB, automining, autocast, etc, no matter what Blizzard does. They may soften its impact, but i still believe that SCII's competitive appeal will be something like 70% or 80% of Broodwar's, while i have no reason to believe that DIII wont be better in every aspect than DII, given that the game is based more around leveling up, collecting powerful items, trading them, cooperative play and just a very small competitive aspect wich i dont will suffer at all with this new game.

So, despite my preference for SC2, i believe that DIII will be the better sequel.

This thread is funny. Starcraft 2 has a powerful map editor, in Starcraft 1 you could already create diablo-like games with the map editor, with Starcraft 2 you could do better and even create Diablo 3 like games.

Starcraft 2 because even if the melee sucks the mapping community won't. There's a huge lineup of SC mappers waiting to get their hands on it that never even touched WC3.

SC2 definitely. But D3 trails behind very closely.

Diablo3'd but excited about SC2 aswell hopeing it can fill the void all these decades until D3 comes out and maybe even beyond that. D3 feels like a safer bet in that sense beeing an old D2 addict It just feels that SC2 will either hit or miss, either awesome or uninteresting. Maybe one of the expansions will make it awesome if it "fail" from the start tho..
