BlizzCon 2008 - Diablo III (2of2)

[WhereTheyAre]

3 whole years after.

They still haven't released the game.

By they time they do, it will look outdated.

[Kurisu2fil]

@WhereTheyAre

Not really. The majority of PC gamers have crappy computers. So blame them for games looking 'outdated' even if a game came out on time. Look at World of Warcraft for instance. It came out in 2004 with subpar graphics at the time just so the majority can play. Either way, Diablo III looks amazing when you see it in person...

The beta is finally starting soon... Sad that it's more or less the exact build I took this video of, now with the addition of the other classes.

[WhereTheyAre]

@Kurisu2fil

Wait. Are you actually suggesting that the reason a game can look outdated is... PC gamers owning shit PCs?

Really? Do you know how stupid this argument seems to a person with average IQ?

I mean.. current gen games are actually... heavier than what the mainstream technology can handle.

The Witcher 2 runs like shit on max settings on a 590

Alice runs like shit with high physics on a 590

Crysis 2 runs at 30fps with DX11 and HQ textures on a 590

I could go on.

[Kurisu2fil]

@WhereTheyAre

Games like Crysis/The Witcher require an uber rig to run, I'm not denying that. I myself keep my rig updated every year or so.But out of all my friends that play PC games, I'm the only one willing to spend money to do so. Anyways, the typical PC gamer will still want to play these hardware hungry games, but forced to play on the lowest settings, if possible. Hence Blizzard games like WoW dumb down their graphics so the majority of gamers can play/pay. Is that hard to believe?

[RecklezOMG]

@Kurisu2fil is the beta playable for everybody with a battle.net acc.?

else why can u get the beta? if i cant get it ima rage on blizzard for letting us wait so long and then also not letting us play the demo if u couldnt make it to blizzcon (wich is retarded cuz some people dont have the money for it -.-)

[Killery96]

these graphics look sooo amazing!

[jonnycool2009]

it's the same skeleton king from DOTA (king Leoric)

[hodgoo]

@jonnycool2009

from diablo 1 mate.

[jonnycool2009]

@hodgoo i know that leoric is from diablo 1 but i don't know what i wanted to say with it (3 months is a long time), and another thing i know that DOTA was inspired by diablo 1 and 2 (characters, items...)

[iLLKookie]

30 minutes on the beta?

[Koyukonn]

looks like a water temple

[wowGHisawesome]

dont worry, its not the one from dota...even though theres also one in the warcraft 3 diablo map and diablo 1

[DiabloiiiKore]

Diablo 3 Kore - GOOGLE IT

[nalzaro5]

skeleton king diablo 1 to dota to diablo 3..

[Carebearmasacre]

lol not the one from dota

[Grug16]

Blizzard has said that they like to have one really polished area per act as an example for the design team. That's why people think they're so far along.

[103Universo]

I think king Leoric should have other type of attacks....like rising skeletons and explode them idk it seems to be an easy boss.

[dhillskier75]

this game is still in need of much more development, they probably just did a basic overview to show off the mechanics, i wouldn't say it's how the difficulty will stay

[iLLKookie]

@103Universo its not even out yet

[2800aaa]

can not wait.

[Jschwan1]

wut i dont get is how this games not anywhere near being done and they have worked on it for 4+ years looks good none the less

[Vyybz]

but seriously, diablo 2 was like massive, and if that was anything to go by im not surprised its taken this long

[Spartacus900]

They take so long to work on the game because they want it to be the best it can be at launch.

[doogie3001]

you can play diablo 3 if ur lucky enough to get a ticket and go to blizzcon and play the demo there..

[delsyking]

hey how can you play diablo 3??

[Hanning11]

Will you be able to meet people in towns inside Diablo 3 or do you have to meet at battlenet??

[TideofWar420]

battlenet, but u can just wisper ur friends while ur in a game n they can join mid season along iwth randoms if u choose to allow the game to be private or not.

[Gunshow0]

in a little way, i rekon Blizzard should sell this demo, i mean seriously i would pay $20 AU for this little bit of awesomenesssss !

[Neobdragon]

You couldve just played it at blizzcon

[roydamanna]

[xeon554]

[gekalskip]

[fireonhair]

[Christoffer424]

I must say i like the way it looks aswell. Totally beats d1+2

[GaaraOTS3]

where did u get the demo ?

[DANINEN]

dude....i'm gonna try not to be rude here but......just look at the f*cking title ok?

they're on BLIZZCON...they don't have the demo wtf? :P

[CodeEphyon]

am... it's the demo of the game, it was available only in blizzcon2008

[DANINEN]

that's what i said...they're able to play the demo because they are @ blizzcon....lol.

[gvdskater]

are there just 3 chars right now ore do we got the other 7 too?

[SableWarrior]

they have revealed 3 out of 5 character classes at this time

[preseazelos]

i want to play as the wizard so badly now i can just cry

[diablo34ever]

does ur mana regenarte or do u need potions for mana or do monsters drop mana ball someone plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz tel me

[jon1234567123]

they drop mana balls and it regebs

[EternalSage07]

I think what you're referring to are the mana orbs - there are health orbs as well and both benefit the entire party; and yes, that will be a method for regenerating mana.

Potions haven't really been discussed in length, but I do believe they said that if those were implemented then it'd be at a limited capacity. I'm thinking they'll put a moderate cool-down timer on it. At any extent, there most certainly won't be allowed pot spamming like in D2.

[pipech121]

oh you buy demo?where can download?pliz xd

[raidenlloyd12]

oh wait!! i've fought with skeleton king in diablo I

it was really a hard battle.......

[Kaho]

The Skeleton king from dota was taken from Diablo 1 Skeleton King, and yeah thats also him. Blizzard comfirmed it.

[Metadaxe]

Skeleton King is Leoric?

[Kaho]

Yep its him..

[UniqueChiko]

O man, I already killed him in D1, how comes hes back ;)

[ChrisCamTheMan]

You only break him up, maybe some critters put him back together? :D

[Abominable]
