It's obvious that Blizzard knows the fans want the Druid and Necromancer classes back.
I'm calling it now: The next expansion classes are likely to be the Necromancer and a completely new Druid/Sorceress mix.

Ideas and suggestions? Take a look at Path of Exile. I'm sure you'll find something there.
It's funny how Blizzard still actually pretends to give a crap what players think.
Meanwhile, every weekly content patch on Path of Exile has the players entirely in mind, so much so that players can create new uniques that completely change the game to enable many more viable builds that players want.
This "fun for everyone, even your grandmother (for a couple weeks)" adopted business model is absolutely crap and has destroyed the Diablo franchise. -

Eat it haters, Even more soild stuff coming to D3. Like i said at the very start. Rome wasnt built in a day, D2 sucked intill LoD came out for it, It took WoW 7 years but they finally got transmog. I dont get where people think games are going to be perfect at launch. Nice to see i was right again, but hey thats allways for me
Hell, I don't know, maybe because people expect to pay for a finished product, and not have a company use its customers as beta testers, especially when they DID have a beta (which only went to lvl13 but that was THEIR choice) and supposedly had internal testing.
Yeah....people and their weird concepts of finished products.....
Let it be a lesson to all game companies: if you truly want to test your game before launching it (and not just say that you tested it), hire some hardcore gamers, give them a couple of months to play the game to the max, make them write down every single little thing wrong with it, make them sign NDA's, then fix the damn thing. And THEN release it.
Sadly, this is how all products are being made now. Get the product out there as quick as possible to get some money, then have the users of the product find all the bugs and release a patch.
Lots cheaper than paying engineers.
I might be showing my age, but I remember when a product was released, it worked, right out of the box.
Pre-internet days, a manufacturer would test a product extensively prior to release as a recall was costly, in money and reputation.
You should check out Path of Exile. It's very refreshing and is successfully going strong against the grain.
This is the first time I've checked out anything Diablo 3 in several months, as I've been enjoying PoE far too much to care about Blizzard shenanigans anymore. After checking out this new blog out of boredom, I can't believe a solution for D3 still hasn't been found yet. At this rate, it'll take 5 years for Diablo 3 to get up to par, and PoE will have already experienced a full release and 5 expansions (all free and already planned/promised).
I never thought Blizzard would be the thing that killed my interest in the Diablo franchise. -

yesterday:
No, no, no... far, far less than 1%
today:
1.9% of characters have unlocked Inferno difficulty
WTF!!
Oh no, an inconsistency (even though Bashiok has stated many times before that he doesn't necessarily fact check before sharing information because it would take forever to respond back)
And 1.9% is ridiculously low anyway. That means 98.1% haven't unlocked Inferno mode. Get over it. -

One that might be just coincidence, is sometimes there is a armored corpse found in the beta that wears green and is eerily similar to link from the Zelda games.
Got a photo of that? That sounds interesting. -

MAldenB posted a message on Diablo 3 - Release Date RumorPosted in: NewsQuote from afkalmighty
when it came to release dates they were adamant about debunking it with the 'they don't know either' line. but the fact that they didn't outright debunk it this time does say something
This is what I thought after I read that. Why the sudden change from debunking crappy rumors assuringly to using a professional, blank statement that wasn't worth replying. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Dark Lord, the Board Game's development is slowly coming to a close (the game itself is finished--just making it look amazing now). We are very excited to have so many amazing and professional artists contributing to make Dark Lord equally as good-looking as it is intensely fun to play.
While I managed to sneak in a couple of my own graphics, I don't pretend that they amount to anything close to our other artists' work. I'm simply the Creative Director that pulls and stitches everything together to make it work (and I'm very happy with doing that!).
Thanks very much for checking us out and following us along our indy-game-developer journey. Much like this website, we are nothing without our fans!

Thanks, we will need it!
If all goes well, we will have a thousand copies of the final version manufactured and sold sometime this Summer. I'll be sure to keep updating this thread for funsies.

For those not in the know, we are aiming for a Mid-Summer release this year!
Please go to our website and check out all the cool stuff we're doing with the game, and like us on Facebook as several (cough, 431 people, cough) already have!

I will be continuing making digital art and posting them to this thread in case people still want to check my stuff out. My game design team now has an official Facebook page (oh man), and we are working on making the website presentable to launch it early January.
There is still a lot more to do regarding our board game, and I will be sure to update this thread with teasers and other related, cool stuff if you all are interested. As for now, I'm sleeps. Presents in the morning and another day of slothness and eye straining at the television. Hope you all have a great holiday season!
