    Hey all,

    Pretty sure some of you already know about this, but if you head over to Barnes and Noble website (http://www.bn.com/) and search "Diablo" you will get a list of all the books currently for sale.

    If you register an account (free) you may preview most (if not all) of the books.. Up to 5 chapters each.

    This may help you in your decision to buy the books or not, reading material for the year or so it will be before D3 comes out.

    Hope this helps! :thumbsup:

    posted a message on Question on Backing up/External hard drives
    Greetings,

    I am going to be building a new gaming PC within the next couple years (at least 1 month before Diablo 3 comes out is my goal).

    In the past, I never made any effort to back up my files and have had some serious mishaps. Now that I have the patience and money to invest in one, I am looking to purchase an external hard drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822111017

    Now.. Do I need software for my new computer to be able to backup the information to the external hard drive?

    In the event of a crash, how will I get the data from my external hard drive to the new one in my computer?

    Would anyone recommend buying a second internal hard drive for backup inside my computer case (there will be plenty of space, I'm buying a huge tower)?

    Basically, I'm looking for any advice on how to make my new gaming PC an unstoppable force (against crashes, need to reformat, or anything like that) because of my past mistakes. Anything you can offer would be greatly appreciated! :thumbsup:

    It looks nice, but I think I'll stick to the official plain Diablo 3 wallpaper.

    I apologize for misusing the term "Gay" in my thread. I never meant it in a homophobic sense, and I have been warned to change my post, which I eventually did.

    Blizzard always shares ideas from other franchises, did you know that Witch-Doctor was also a unit used in WarCraft 3?
    I've seen it and learned much about the WD. I am not alone here, a lot of people dislike the WD, THAT ALONE means they have not chosen wisely.

    This is in regards to van's arguments.

    Just because some people on a fansite forum don't like a particular piece of a game (for example, the graphics or a class), does not mean it is a bad choice all around.

    Are you forgetting the people that do like these things? Does that make it a good choice?

    I for one am extremely happy after watching the gameplay video at least 10 times through, and just this morning having watched it in the 800mb high res version. I am very pleased with the graphics, the look, the feel, and the awesome power of both classes.

    By your logic, Blizzard has made a good choice.

    My point here is, if you don't like something, you can't say it's a bad decision based on your opinion. You have to back it up with FACTS.

    However, I DO agree that if they bring back the necromancer, some/most of the WD's skills will bleed over. You are very right. But my thoughts are that they are not bringing the Necromancer back. In a video I watched of a D3 dev, he mentioned the necromancer as if he wasn't in this game.

    Lastly, yes, I remember Witch Doctors in WC3. It was like 2am and I had a hard time remembering every class/thing that crossed over/shared games.

    posted a message on I don't like the Witch-Doctor
    I made a snap judgement about this guy's post, so I decided to break it down piece by piece now.

    Here goes:

    It was a disappointment that there are only 5 classes in D3. I think the witch-doctor is a bad replacement for the undead-caster. Most importantly, he is a waste of one of the five precious classes.
    Why?

    Primary reason:
    He looks so weird and ugly. The closest word to describing him is gay.

    >>>Really bad way to make an arguement. Using politically incorrect words to describe something is like digging your own grave.

    His class name even sounds gay, it doesnt sound dark at all! I would much prefer the warlock, shaman, and best of all, the necromancer.

    >>> Again, the use of "gay" here is misplaced. Find something better. Warlock and shaman are two very different classes, and they are both WoW classes. This is a double whammy, mainly because they are WoW classes, and other than the Paladin or Rogue, there isn't a very high chance that blizzard will use simillar classes across games.

    I am not a hardcore fan of the necromancer, but if you are going to replace such a meaningful class, please choose wisely.

    >>>They have chosen wisely. In fact, they've been working on it for several years. How can you say that this is not a good choice? Have you taken the time to watch the Class Discussion panel?

    Why does the witch doctor have a fireball spell? THIS DOESNT MAKE SENSE. Fire should remain unique to the sorceress (unless you have elemental traps like the assassin in d2).
    But a plain fireball spell?

    >>> Witch Doctor implies that he is very handy with alchemical things. The devs explained that the "fireball" is an alchemical concotion inside a SKULL. Think about that one, and tell me if you still withhold your above statement?

    I like the undead wall. The mongrels, locust swarm, horrify and other spells are pretty gay.

    >>> Agreed on Undead wall. Disagreed on "gay," once again.

    Just my thought. I have to admit, the WD Looks pretty ugly. His spells seem all over the place.

    >>> Blizz Devs have put a lot of thought into all the class skills. There is reason behind all of them, and I don't feel you are searching hard enough.

    The barbarian totally overshadowed the WD in the gameplay trailer.

    >>> This I disagree with. Although they did give the Barbarian more time, the witch doctor really captured my eye, because barb was old news brought back to life. But this is all opinion.


    ;)

    People like you just live with your problems and nothing will ever change.

    I don't like the Witch-Doctor.

    Damn, you're right.

    But you called the witch doctor "gay." That's not exactly a "politically correct" way of describing him, or anything for that matter. So your own comments are depriving your arguement, because you said, "people like me" and "slavery" in the same sentence. So.. you're kind of contradicting yourself.

    Seriously, your primary reason was that he looks gay.

    Btw, I still like the witch doctor.

    ps. dont take me too seriously.
