Seriously though, the third instalment looks awesome!

Apparently, they've made some improvements to the randomisation in the game. Now it's not only the maps/levels and monsters that change every game, but the tasks/missions you have to do to advance the story line. So in one game you might of had to clear a room of monsters, but the next time round it could be find an item, fight a mini-boss, protect a trade caravan, etc...

I played the hell out of Diablo and Diablo II and the expansions. Played multi-player once or twice but never on Blizzard.net

The controversy now is how some people think Blizzard changed the artistic direction to be more WoW-like and not so "gloomy, doomy" like the two prior versions. Some die-hards are saying D3 is "too cartoony" now.

Nice. We should start a guild or whatever they decide to call co-operative groups when it goes live.

Darv, this game is probably not for you Feces-Engineering-types...

I never played online either, but we had 7 regular players at my hostel and used the ancestral recall patch. It kicked sooo much ass to have every class represented in a group playing together.
I had a level 92 (if I remember correctly) Necromancer and a 70ish Paladin.

Most game developers will want to go the WoW route, as it's such a money spinner. As long as they stay true to the basics of D2 I don't really care.
They want to make money, not placate a few hard-core fans.

I don't think so, Natsia...

It's just that those two are the only ones Blizzard has previewed on their site so far.

At least I sure hope there's more than two classes... although the witch doctor looks pretty sweet.
