LOL i thought this was the solution from Blizzard to make the End game last longer!
i even heared will be playing for months to get to paragon 100!!!!!
oh boy...... so we are back to 0 now again right?
Just because one person has done it doesn't mean everyone has done it. When the average player reaches 100 paragon it is safe to say that something new needs to be added to the game as an ultimate goal. Most people aren't even close to getting 100 so it still functions as a way to create longevity and a carrot for people that require a stick.
The are consider Easter Eggs to Blizzard, they purposely put them in there to make the player go "OMG I remember that!"
Not really. References to past lore isn't an easter egg even by Blizzard standards. And its not the generally held definition of easter eggs in Computer games. http://www.wowpedia.org/Easter_egg are examples of easter eggs blizzard has done in the past.
To reiterate, having the corpse of Warriv isn't an easter egg. Having npc's named after Blizzard works, devs, and GM's/CM's is an easter egg. Having Black Mushrooms around Tristram and related to Adria isn't an easter egg its just Lore. Because you know if they existed in D1 in the area and Adria was interested in them chances are she might still be interested in them.
Continue story and lore to build a more consistent and living world isn't an easter egg. Its just good story telling. Which is shown by the fact Warriv drops a journal that provides in-depth lore. Thats not an easter egg is just lore.
If you consider things like warrivs corpse and Black Mushrooms to be easter eggs then anything that has been referenced or appeared in past games must also be Easter Eggs. Because they have the same qualities of a)Being in a past game/lore and b)Being in D3.
I don't know if I'd really call these things Easter eggs. Things like the corpse of a fallen from a different place is close. But names and places that appeared previously aren't really Easter eggs since its just a continuation of the Lore. Names of GM's appearing as monster names is an Easter Egg.
Having a corpse named warriv isn't one. At least not anymore of one then having a town named Tristram is...
