    If they're primatial and nude: visible genitals.

    If they're reptilian or clothed/armoured/furred: no visible genitals.

    Seems pretty simple to me, and exactly what has been done in the past.

    Diablo had the better atmosphere, but storyline? I'm not so sure... but yes, I suppose so. Diablo's story was sparse compared to Diablo II's, but it had a stronger effect thanks to the thick atmosphere and the way in which the story unfolded, which was very 'horror fantasy' rather than Diablo II's more 'high fantasy' approach.

    Never mind how much more naked the first one was, I'm amazed by how much better it looked overall. That's crazy.

    It's part of the understood anatomy of angels. Demons, being angels, are also inequipped.(Haven't you seen Dogma? xD)
    I don't know where Dogma derived that notion from. Paintings, sculptures, engravings, and etchings of demons have always had genitals, very often with perpetual erections (a feature Christian demons derived mostly from Celtic gods) or hermaphroditic features (derived from several other pantheons, including Greek and Hindu).

    Even more to the point: the Diablo universe's demons are not fallen angels as you say they are. Angels and demons were spawned simultaneously and separately by the Void. Furthermore, humans are the result of angels breeding with demons.

    That picture, Elfen, is very stupid.
    Oh. Well, that settles it, then.

    3-18 letters, one optional space, one optional apostrophe, and one optional hyphen. Automatic capitalisation. No other punctuation, and no numbers.

    I don't understand. You think five players is too hectic and therefore you want... more?

    Quote from "Lydeck" »
    I think the reason that people are shitting themselves over thinking Diablo 3 has borrowed from WoW is because that was once of the concerns before the game was announced.

    So once the game was announced, they immediately tried to compare D3 to WoW, and the smallest similarity sent off red flags in the puny minds, and now they're running around crying foul.
    I considered it an uninhibited possibility, yet I never thought it more probable than an updated style or fresh style. I was utterly shocked when I saw the in-game graphics. 'Trying to compare' had nothing to do with it.

    This thread is completely useless. I can follow the idea of reaching lvl 99 in HC mode and getting mailed a jewel or something, but an IRL gift? Get a grip please..
    I never thought I'd encounter someone less able to detect a joke than I.

    Go look at diablo 1 & 2 demos and betas. They look NOTHING like the actual game when it was released
    That is not how development works anymore. Have you alpha/beta tested or followed the development of anything in the last seven or eight years?

    Ignoring the graphics, the gameplay seems fine, but I'm not interested in the Barbarian or Witch Doctor, so I'm still waiting for more information.

    I also just realised that the official website itself refers to the object as a 'comet'. Must I school Blizzard, as well? :P

    Ah, I see the head and beard. I was seeing most of that area as a hood facing the ground, not a head facing the Angel.

    Really? It looks an awful lot like Tyrael in the foreground, to me.



    Unless Cain has taken to wearing a cowl and huge gloves. And sprouted wings.

    As for the structure, I assumed it was the Angiris Council, not the Tristram Cathedral.

    Edit: But, looking at these two concept pieces for the Tristram Cathedral, you may very well be right: 1, 2

    Edit #2: I watched the end of the trailer again, and yes, it is definitely the interior of the Tristram Cathedral, so there goes my interpretation. I'm still not sure how I'm misperceiving the sketch, but since everything else fits, I'll let it go. Heh.

    I just thought I'd bring this up, the void spawned the Prime Evils, Lesser Evils, ect.

    Why can't it spawn a new and even more powerful evil since the world stone was destoried?
    Think of it like the Big Bang.
