Diablo 3

<< < (5/42) > >>

KvP:
yeah, Witch Doctor seems like a synthesis, weighted towards the necromancer end of things. Hopefully they don't end up diluting one another. The tribal aesthetic they have for him / her is certainly interesting, I will say.

imapiratearg:
I posted before you edited, I think.  But yeah, that was kind of what I thought, too.

My first reaction was like: "What another?"

est:
Oh, and the thing I want the mostest in regards to the storyline would be for none of the demon brothers to be alive and for the players to be facing some kind of widespread low-level threat and a bunch of lesser demons, perhaps some that have been empowered due to taking over certain parts of the old demon lords' domains and have become a lot more powerful than usual.  I mean, we've fucking killed them all already.  I really hope they don't just dust themselves off and come back to fight.

Either that, or maybe some of the cultists we see chanting and raising demons in the gameplay trailer can succeed in raising Diablo right toward the end of the second-last chapter and then the final chapter involves him somehow, but up until that point you just think you're gonna be fighting these cultists and their lesser demonspawn.  I dunno, I guess I just hope it's gonna be something that sets itself apart from the first two.

KvP:
I think they've said that Diablo is definitely back.

They've also alluded to Divine antagonists as well as Infernal ones.

One more thing:  It looks like Blizzard aren't above taking influence from other games in the genre.  Am I the only one that was reminded of Kratos when the barbarian was displaying his new moves?  The countryside and a few of the monsters also reminded me of Titan Quest are fair deal also, but that could be due to TQ being heavily influenced by the style of D2 and taking it into a 3d engine before D3 did.  The final boss in the second gameplay trailer (big centaur-type dealie) especially reminded me of TQ, and the outdoor areas were very similar in feel also.

Just to clarify, I think these are good things.  I loved Kratos' moves in GoW and thoroughly enjoyed TQ, so to be reminded of those games is not a negative thing in any fashion.
