bhj 24 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Yep theres going to be a No three as well Just look at this... Woo Hoo Blizzard even got a nice looking website up and running with a lot more "stuff" on it Link to comment
Katran 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Nice! Does this mean WOW numbers are going down? Or they have gone so up that now they can spend money on Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3! Link to comment
Schot 407 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Awwh come on. This is just another rumor. Someone threw together a lil video and some cheapy website. Just a hoax as always. Move along everyone. Just kidding! Really cool to see Blizzard is finally giving in to the demand. I wonder if they will manage to set a new standard of gaming. Again! Blizzard has always been at the forefront of game development ingenuity. So I'm very curious to see what they will do with Diablo 3! Link to comment
ganto 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Weeee ... cant wait to do zillions of more cow grinding :P Really awesome news this, cant wait to see what Blizzard comes up with. Link to comment
toret 0 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Best news I've seen in ages. Check out the 20 minute gameplay video over at Blizzard.com. Very nice. Link to comment
DaveO 88 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I'm not impressed so far, and there does not seem to be much wow factor to the game. That could change in the 3-5 years this game will take to be released... Link to comment
gogoblender 3,068 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I don't believe it gogo p.s. says in weak voice "go Sacred 2" Link to comment
stubbie 21 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Isn't Diablo just another Sacred type game? stubbs Link to comment
bhj 24 Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 @stubbs anyway you can DL a nice video here (350 MB) both gameplay and a bit of "introduction" story telling VLC is one of the many players that can show this video Link to comment
locutus 1 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hooooooo boy, I love Diablo 1/2 and I cant wait for this one. I hope it doesnt have too stiff of requirements so I can play it. Link to comment
Llama8 8 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Oh look, D3, that is a surprise! Gogo, D3's not going to be out for ages, I wouldn't worry about it impacting on Sacred 2 much (unless you're waiting to buy Sacred 2 Gold ). I doubt the WoW figures are dropping, they're trying to cover as many different genres & player-types as possible to maximise revenue. They've got MMOs sown up with WoW, RTS' with StarCraft & now (well, in a few years) aRPGs with D3. Will I buy Sacred 2 as soon as it hit's the shops? Absolutely, will I buy D3? Probably (eventually). Hell, I'd be surprised if some Sacred 2 devs don't buy D3. Can you like both? Yes, I think you can. Link to comment
EvilMale 7 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Oh killer I will definitely buy D3 heck I have all of them right now so yeah I will admit it I am a big time fan of BLIZZ Link to comment
TelariTurunen 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I've heard rumors about D3 a few years ago, so I'm completely not surprised. Tristram... hehe, that name reminds me only Sacred I don't know if I'd play D3. I think I'll be busy with Sacred 2 Link to comment
Katran 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 p.s. says in weak voice "go Sacred 2" [/color] Sorry Gogo Sacred 2 will have no chance against Diablo3. Diablo3 will be so much better. On the other hand S3 will probably be fighting neck to neck with Diablo3 because rumor has it they will come out at the same time. Link to comment
Obsession 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 This is really bad news for Sacred 2, when ever it's released. That game looks really good and sounds really good. Allmost must have game.. maybe even pre-order. Even the site looks really good, they must have spend lot of time doing it and not just put up some half empty page like sacred 2 site was when launched. Graphics are updated d2 style and that is a good thing. Also noticed many other stuff from d2 in that ingame video. Haven't had this good feeling about game for a long time. Let's see how long does it take for them to get it on stores. Link to comment
TelariTurunen 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Even the site looks really good, they must have spend lot of time doing it and not just put up some half empty page like sacred 2 site was when launched. Yeah, site looks very nice. (and as I thought, Barbarian is back) But I don't think this game will be relased soon... and I don't think it won't be expensive. *sigh* Blizzard is blizzard.

fRACTAL 0 Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Woo! Diablo III!! Course, it's not going affect Sacred 2, for me anyway And why, oh why, did they have to bring back the barbarian of all the stupid characters... Oh well I hope they have a sort of combination of the sorceror and necromancer and druid all mixed up... or at least a sorceror.... ~Doom Link to comment

Not necessarily, one possibility (and granted, it's quite a positivist one) is that all the advertising & the inevitable wait will get aRPG gamers all worked up & they won't be able to play D3, so they'll either go back to D2 or look for alternatives (Sacred 2).

gogoblender 3,068 Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I just got a post together here with ten action trailers from Diablo 3 showing off all their new Combat Arts. http://darkmatters.org/forums/index.php?sh...ic=8081&hl= While watching them all, I found myself again drawn into the fascination I have for the complexities of sound. It looks like Diablo has definitely got some of the most intriguing, squishy, satisfying sounds out there. This is the kind of sound I want. The kind of sound that makes you want to hit things over and over again just so that you can get that visceral "thump' of beating out a baddies innards. Yes, it may should a bit too honest, but I'm sure their devs asked themselves over and over again, whether what they've created satisfies human gamers in a primal way. I'm particularly fond of the distortion effect that happens when the Gladiator uses his special moves. I was quite surprised that a Glad, usually the toon I least like to play, was actually made to look enticing.... did you guys check out the Barbarian Whirlwind move? Incredible gogo Link to comment
StiCk_eM 1 Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Honestly I haven't been that impressed thus far! And I don't think that D3 will amount to what D2 ever was...these are different people creating the game... Yes it looks nice, but I'd say Sacred 2 looks even sleeker...I know its early, but still this honestly looks like what Blizzard is doing for a few of their games...graphics update...not a whole lotta new content really just the same thing with better graphics! People will still love it though I'm sure because its Blizzard and Blizzard makes great games I'm a fan of all of em, but I'm not impressed with what they have done thus far and yes I've watched all the gameplay videos there are, but I do like the Barbarian affects when he did his Skills or CAs or w/e they are called in Diablo lol Wait and see is all I can say, But, you'll prob find me playing Sacred 2 and maybe MAYBE buying D3 as an afterthought when it FINALLY comes out or when the price will go down, StiCk_eM Link to comment
Llama8 8 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I think that from the looks of the vids I've (which are showing a very limited amount of gameplay & with the player classes totally overpowered) that the gameplay reminds me of arcade games, not necessarily in a bad way, but not quite as "deep" as Sacred. Still, I'll definitely try the demo. Link to comment
myles 2 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I'm still skeptical, hey its me. I will believe it when I see it on the shelf. Link to comment
Spock 271 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 ... Blizzard even got a nice looking website up and running with a lot more "stuff" on it Their website seems to be down right now. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,068 Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I agree with you llama. I think the game is looking kinda arcadish. The first thing I thought was that it would be nowhere near the kind of depth that Sacred 2 is hoping to offer. Diablo 2 is sticking to isometric.... ugh, don't know if I can hang with that for a while...but I know it'll be the thing to pick up when it's released, and it's definitely on my list. gogo Link to comment
Spock 271 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Ref: FAQ Will players be able to choose the gender of their character, regardless of class? Yes. Players will be able to create male and female characters for all five classes. It would be nice if other games allowed this. Edited July 15, 2008 by Spock Link to comment
