BW is undoubtedly my favourite game of all time and I'm way more 'excited' for SC2 than I am D3... however, I don't play BW at all anymore... I just watch replays and VODs of progames. Like Travis, I don't have that burning in my gut for competitive video gaming anymore (as a player), it just doesn't matter to me. Consequently, I'll probably end up playing D3 more than I do SC2 and just continue watching replays and VODs of people who are enthusiastic about being good players and can perform at high standards.

D3 will lend itself to casual play a lot more than SC.

Diablo 3 without a doubt.
Guess the rts bug in me finally died out, well that or too much clicking.

o but D2 also has a lot of button mashing...
but still D3, SC2 will probably feel much more like a rehash.
diablo being a rpg will most likely have much more new content.

D3, just because I don't have the time to play Sc2 like I did with SC1, so rather have a game I can pop in for a few hours and have fun with, I'm too competitive by nature to play Sc2 if I can't play it seriously.

Diablo 3 looks like it'll be horrible, purely from the ridiculous problems seen in trailer footage. Not game problems, i'm talking design and attitude problems. A bright and cheery world where heroes do insane WHOOSH and BAM physics-defying NEON FIRE attacks like some sort of cocaine-tripping children's anime is not at all a sequel to two games that were grim, gothic, and mundane-for-the-most-part. Like in d1 and d2, heroes swung weapons, shot arrows, and cast spells. In d3 it's more like they shout move names and do all sorts of cool s**t just to impress kids. Like ULTRA BARBARIAN CHOP!!!!!!!! *small leap, sudden kinetic change straight down, NEON BLUE FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!*

In other words, if Blizzard is approaching D3 with this design attitude, the game won't be anything like the first two, and I won't like it.

Easy there scooter. He an't done nobody no harm.

When I get the game imma gonna get on my white and purple unicorn and run far far away, over the rainbow away from all the trolls. There I'll sip tea with Diablo, Baal and Mifesto as we play dress up's together.
100% Pure.

Excited for both.

I love SC and D2 to death, but I probably love SC more because it has brought such epic epic moments.

But I'm alot better at D2 than at SC so I can enjoy that more when I play it. And I think I'll enjoy D3 tremendously.

If I had to choose I'd pick D3 because I probably won't be that good at S2, even if I will enjoy it alot.

I have played both D2 (for about 2 years) and Starcraft for about 10 years. I will probably play both games depending on how serious I want to take SC2. So, I am excited about both!

Both games will be at its prime, imo. At first, lots of people playing etc.
So i'll play both at release
Do it beautifully

I always really like anything that's really dark and gothic. Not just video games, but movies and books too.

However, while I am looking forward to D3, I can't not pick SC2 with the beta being (hopefully?) so near.

I remember when this thread was first made. I forgot if it was in general or S&G but d3 actually had more votes than sc2. Then it got moved to the sc2 subforum and that changed fast :p

wow my sentiments in the first reply. + SC2 looks godawful from everything i've seen. Past being stubborn, the graphics just don't appeal to me for an rts. Diablo 3 will undoubtably be awesome but I have many hesitations about playing SC2 competitively ~_~ Prolly gonna play BW forever once a week.

I will definitely probably pick up D3 at some point if they shift focus away from l33t gear and more on the characters...one thing I can never come to terms with in D2 is how ridiculous some of the items are (freaking enigma...I mean COME ON), but the characters skills and the dark, gothic lore of the series is genuinely interesting (even if both the Assassin and Druid are retconned, I still <3 them both). The gameplay videos seems like it's trying to place more even more mirco managment control with in the environment than before; my first impression is it looks a lot more like a Gauntlet-style, action-oriented hack and slash (think Champions series in a dreary setting) now than the generally boring formula of dungeon crawling established in the first two games.

also, screw the witch doctor
lame idea for a character in Diablo universe IMO
fuck art its a competition if you dont get pissed off when you lose you dont care enough - Idra, on the "art" of RTS games.
