    i cant believe i will say this, but i am sooooooooooooo dont give a flying poo about it. if i would have said this date before xmas i would cream my pants.
    I just so burned out of diablo 3. it takes them so much time that i dont have any excitement left over. i will still pick it up on may 15, but i am not counting days an hours now. i will just go pick it up like any other game.

    Ridiculously early game announcements are the worst thing ever. Diablo 3 was first announced in June 2008 ffs.

    indeed. 4 years in now. all my hype fizzelled out back in 2011 :D.

    i was expecting it for xmas or after xmas. was saving up my holidays so i could take few weeks off and enjoy some diablo 3. now i wont even take day off and most likely pick up my copy of diablo after work etc.

    i am saying this now, but who knows what will happen 1 week untill launch, i might be like a little girl in candy store again :D.

    It's Diablo one of the most called for sequels of all time. I Remember exactly when I first heard the news and im delighted they announced it when they did.

    It's been a long wait but i'm confident it will be worth it!

    What I don't get is the crazy amount of WoW players who never played 1 or 2 getting hyped up about this just because it's blizzard. Boggles the mind really, its a game that is heavily focused on its story and lore and plays nothing like an mmo. :confused:

    That is well spoted. I loved the QQ of wow players when they started Starcraft 2. They were like: wtf is this?! I need to think and stuff here :)

    On the other side it will be easyer for them to play diablo 3 as it's I loot whore game, same as wow.

    I never get CEs as they are usually never worth the asking price but i'm going to have to make the exception here. I still have D2 and Lod in there original rediculously large boxes so the CE will sit nicely beside em. That's my excuse anyway! :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,447 ✭✭✭richymcdermott


    This be my first diablo title , what sort of game is t like , from youtube looks similar to lara croft and the guardian of light

    i think that blizzards collectors editions are the only ones that are awesome and not stupidly overpriced for what you get.

    it has nothing to do with that game m8. its like comparing tetris with bf3 m8.

    diablo 3 is a loot whore game! :D

    It's a click intensive combat game based on gathering **** tons if loot. Youtube Path of Exile or Torchlight for some of the most recent implementations.

    i newer though that we will live in time where we will need to discribe diablo 3 as Torchlight :eek: . i think i am really getting old now :(

    No subscription, you buy it, and its free from there on, barring expansions or dlc which i have no doubt they'll keep pumping into it.

    Whereas I don't want to hear about a game until 1 month before release. Doesn't matter whether it's Half Life: Ep. 3 or Kiss Pinball 2. Doesn't benefit me to know about a game 2+ years before I can play it.

    2 questions

    1.How will this game compare to Dark Souls and Skyrim?

    2.Will I need a powerful computer to play it?

    1. Has nothing to do with both of those games. It is a hack and slash with very very deep itemisation.

    2. What's your spec?

    Boards-Games, how you've changed....


    Pick up the Diablo 2 and see what you think, still very playable today.

    I am honestly can't believe so many people have no idea about Diablo 3... Makes me feel very very old. Back in the day everyone knew what is Diablo :(

    This is.my first diablo title.too :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,779 ✭✭✭Spunge


    definitely worth playing D2 for a bit before D3. One of the most addictive rpgs ever.

    1.It would be akin to Dark Souls in item loot and that is about it.
