I can't wait to try it.

But I'm pretty disappointed they aren't really doing anything innovative with it. I didn't really like D2 very much, I still played it a bunch though.

I'm betting it will just be another game to shelve after a few weeks. Let's hope I'm wrong grin

Sounds like they are trying to position the release of it with SWTOR.

I, on the other hand, prefer a command-line system 'cause i'm so hardcore

/cast sheild *sheild spell unavailable*
/csat shield *csat: unknown command*
*[Avatar of Set] beheads [Peasant]*

My reaction this morning was:

/yawn


I see the VN mostly agrees.

After playing the FnF beta as 3 we all felt like /yawning aswell. I figured it would get a 2013 pushback /shrug?

After they announced the whole "Buy items with real cash" thing I pretty much gave up on the game. No way I'm buying it.

People have to wait until next year for the ultra compelling gameplay of clicking on things over and over and over and over and occasionally hitting 1, maybe even 2 if you're a magic user.

Since SWTOR is coming out in December they may have decided to miss the clash

Is that really any different than clicking on things over and over and hitting 1-4?
I mean, really, it's not completely different from WoW. happy

As for the delay, I expected it, oh well, I still have AoE:O, Firefall, NHL'12, and my books, so i'm pretty set in 'entertainment'. happy

Well being serious, WoW has rotations and tons of situational issues that has a player doing different things. I'm not saying that Diablo gameplay is completely rote, but it does usually boil down to the click, click, click of the left mouse button.

But addressing the delay, it really shouldn't be surprising for Blizzard. The best thing about that development studio, aside from WoW recently, is how adamant they are about polish.

I played D2 however using the Median XL mod along with the multi-res mod for higher resolution and the PlugY mod for increased inventory made it a lot more fun for me.

D3 I am not sure I will even play it, WoW is about enough of Blizzard's clueless dev team I can take right now and from what I understand Ghostcrawler has had his hands in the D3 pie, if true, I am sorry but nothing good can come from that.
