Not knowing exactly what kind of health we'll be rocking at that level, the jump in Min Dmg Per Hit between Hell and Inferno is still astounding. 14K to 170K! So, why don't we just rename Inferno to, "Don't Get Hit. Ever." Good times.
Also, as someone mentioned above, I can't wait to see what kind of damage numbers we'll be outputting in Inferno to be able to take down a 15 million HP skeleton king in hopefully a reasonable amount of time. And, it can only go up from there. Insane. Who's gonna make the first 9 hour video of killing Inferno SK with thorns only?!

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on Beta Ending Tonight, Inferno Unbeaten, Blue Posts, Portrait Contest Closed, and Curse RoundupIt's weird. I'm starting to wonder if Inferno will actually be worth what's sounding like the abysmal slow and difficult (read: frustrating kind of difficult, not "overcoming a good challenge" difficult) process of getting through it. It seems like the strategy will boil down to, get as far as you can, getting any upgrades you can, then start over (or earlier), and try to progress further than you got before - repeat to infinity. But, what is the tradeoff for dying repeatedly? One piece of gear per 50, 100, more deaths (just spitballin' numbers)? And, will the gear be absolutely that much better? It's obviously not for everyone - I definitely want to attempt it, but I'm beginning to think that neither I nor my patience will last very long.Posted in: News

The Blizzard community is a psychiatrist's wet dream. There has to some medical terminology for individuals who do this to themselves.Posted in: News
On a side note, I finally got around to pre-order the Collector's Edition today, and, while I'm still eager for release news, it has strangely calmed me very much knowing I have a guaranteed copy. -

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on Runed Grenades, SK Rating, Class Balance, Level Expansion, Followers, Blue PostsUnless they think we are really stupid or they don't want to be deemed complete liars, Blizzard is going to have to announce a release date BEFORE or way way waaaay AFTER this whole Korea debacle. And, since they're not going to do announce anything before it's resolved, nothing good is going to come from this situation.Posted in: News
Also, regarding the whole leveling excitement past 30 in the couple posts above, what would people think about only having Runestones drop from Nightmare difficulty and up? That way, you would only have your regular skills through Normal, but you still get the excitement of each level. Then, when you hit Nightmare and on you get Runestones to keep everything new and exciting. However, it may not work well thinking about it now - what if someone doesn't play past normal? They would miss that whole mechanic of the game, and it's been Blizzard's philosophy cater to everyone. Oh well, just a thought. -

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on Diablo 3 Beta Patch 6 Screenshots, Monster AffixesI never thought I'd say this, but seeing these screenshots has made me realize that I'm actually quite happy this game isn't coming out this year. Aside from the fact that I am 40 hours into Skyrim with probably 100+ more to go and also will soon be stabbing various Bokoblins throughout Hyrule, the amount of polish and small additions they're making - the player profile, upgrade stats, achievements, etc - are insanely exciting. I want the game now, but I'm starting to feel this waiting is for the better.Posted in: News

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on BlizzCon 2011 Opening CeremonyWith the exception of the 4 walking legs, I see little resemblance to Urgot. I do, however, fully agree with the visual comparisons to Waternoose from Monsters, Inc.Posted in: News
Question though, is this confirmed to be the opening cinematic or one from later in the game? I know they stated it was cut down to minimize some story spoilers, but it still seems a bit random and out of context for an opening. Nonetheless, it is still freaking incredible. -

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on New Class Skill VideosI have to say that I absolutely LOVE what runes do to the already enormous amount of skill choices in the game. Watching those videos made me realize that runed "mediocre" skills can turn out to be mind melting decisions of must have or not. Personal example: the WD's Wall of Zombies skill doesn't seem like something I would want to have - a bit too situational, uni-directional, etc. But get a rune that turns it into an offensive expanding circle of zombies and I have a new choice to make. Runes (and the animations) are incredible. I can only hope there will be a video archive database (similar to these vids) on the wiki once they all get discovered.Posted in: News

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on Inferno RevealedSo, question: When we get to Inferno, are we still required to play the game in a linear fashion - Act 1 then Act 2, etc? Since everything will be the same level and all the loot will be on an even plateau, it seems like we shouldn't need to go through the starting area over and over and we could just load up an Act whenever our character gets his or her "Inferno badge." I know they want Inferno to reduce the amount of boss runs, but what if I don't like fighting Leoric or I absolutely love Act 3? I just a little confused on how those choices will play out in Inferno.Posted in: News

FROMtheASHES984 posted a message on Runic Revision?So, I finally think I understand this theoretical system. And I have to say at first I wasn't that sure about it (I wasn't ever against it - just hesitant), but now it sounds quite good. While I love the idea of skill binding the runes, I'm still not fully on board with the lottery of socketing a rune to find out what color it is. However, giving the Mystic functionality to wipe runes is a great solution. At any rate, it seems like the runes could be one of the best markets on the AH - even above gear, in my opinion.Posted in: News

On the flip side, I'm not sure about the repair solution. Blizz has this strange way of finding a problem and then punishing EVERYONE for it. I don't personally zerg things in the game - if I can't get past something, there's no harm to me in just reloading the game and farming more stuff. Blizz seems to take the easiest way out for some of these problems, and it adversely affects unnecessary people. Not to mention that you're going to be killed ALOT just from normal monsters in the later Acts, so they're punishing you're natural progression in a way. I'll reserve judgment for now because it may work well with the other changes, but, on paper, I do not like this change.

Then, much deserved sleep, watch last night's Game of Thrones, play Mass Effect 3, midnight launch, install, watch a movie whilst waiting for servers, and then play guilt free for 2.5 days.

There was an achievement in the list that someone posted that was, "Kill Izual before something something minions something 120 seconds." So, yeah, that's probably him. Can't keep well enough alone can he?
As for the models, HOLY CRAP! They're gorgeous. Even though you can't quite see all the exact textures in game, the effort put into these is astounding.

On a serious note, I don't really care about being spoiled (unless it's Harry Potter or something) - especially when they look this awesome!
