- I've been reading a lot of these posts and I've noticed that a lot of people want to be able to choose the gender of their characters. To everyone who mentioned that: good call. I think that would be awesome.
- I would also like to see customizable appearances. If there were 8 sorceresses in the same game, it would be preferrable if they didn't all look exactly the same.
- One of the cool things from Diablo 2 was that when you put different types of armor on, your character model would show that. But it didn't do it for all armor types. I'd like that to happen for gloves, boots, belts, and even rings and amulets if possible.
- I played a Diablo 2 mod called Hell Unleashed, and it had a very cool feature: it allowed you to transmute armor and weapons in the Horadric Cube with colored dyes, and it would turn that item that color. Not entirely necessary, but nifty to have.
- I personally would like it if, when using melee attacks, you could run and attack at the same time.
- Mercenaries: wow, these guys are dense. I think that (and I saw this somewhere else mentioned on this site) there should be a command GUI for mercenaries. Hit a button, a small menu pops up and you tell them what to do/where to go. Perhaps a waypoint system for them. Instead of having them walk in circles in the Arcane Sanctuary, set up a few waypoints to help him along. Also, I think that more than just weapon, armor, helm should be accessible. They should also be able to wear boots, gloves, etc.
- I know I'm going to get some flak for this, but here it goes: no level 1 Hell charcters. Not only is it impractical, it allows for bots to spam messages on ANY difficulty without too much effort. Hell mules, you say? read on:
- There should be the equivalent to an account name town, where, when you log in, you're sent directly to a small town where all of your characters on that account name are stored. From there, you can assume control of any of them and drop whatever items you need to to transfer.
- Variations in skills. Tired of seeing a game filled with Cold Sorceresses constantly using Frozen Orb (please... make it stop)? Well there should be a system that not only has more skill possibilities, but variations on those existing skills to make for a more interesting experience. Maybe, instead of an orb of ice that sprays ice bolts everywhere, you could cast a spell that makes a giant spire of ice come out of the ground that would rain down ice shards. Just a thought.
I could think of many more things, but people complain about me having long, thoughtful posts. Whatever.
Enjoy.

"This place has been hallowed by the blood of thousands of champions of the Light, many of whom were mortal, like yourself." - The Archangel Tyrael
It is an amazing mod. New skills, new areas, new monsters, new items. I've played it for a while, but not recently, so I'm not the person to go to with setup questions. Have fun!

Very good idea, I would love to see it, but it would require a whole new control system, which is not always bad if someone actually does it right for a change.

I too hated the mercenaries, but I hate all action rpg games that involve a second player following me around, it is just irritating, takes focus away from my main character, and calls for more strategy (which i like, but not in such a way). Multiplayer is different, I don't need to necessarily heal them every f'n five minutes, they don't *always* walk through hordes of monsters for no apparent reason, and they pick up and equip their own items == more time for action and my character.

I love it, very good idea, again.

Like in Divine Divinity, sorta, but not so simple (simple as in Divine Divinity was simple, not your idea). It lets you pick an element, then choose blast radius, range, # of spheres/cones, very clever.

Because if the invisible guy the president believes in isn't the real invisible guy then the real invisible guy gets mad and no longer powers our economy with his invisible hand. Jesus, have you never even read anything about economics?
