Diablo 3
imagist42:
They may not be using extremely high-resolution textures and what not, but I imagine the game will still be somewhat processor and memory-intensive simply because of the mass quantity of crap happening on-screen at times. The very beginning of the video when all the monsters come climbing up the supports and surround the barb on the bridge looks like it would get pretty laggy on machines more than three to five years old. And IIRC, they have stated that their intention is to bring the focus back to the sheer action of facing gigantic hordes and swarms of enemies, so that type of thing probably won't be uncommon.
Melodic:
Right, but if you have a 5 year-old PC you aren't really in a position to argue about high-end specs anyways. Guaranteed it's an easy feat to make a sub-$500 computer that plays this maxed out.
imagist42:
Probably, sure. You can do the same to run most games that aren't called Oblivion and don't run on DX10/Vista if you're shopping for the parts right. I'm just saying, I wouldn't count on being able to play the game without difficulty unless your machine is at least that current.

Honestly if they completely get rid of druids I'll be pissed, it was more or less my favorite character class.

i liked em too. My friends going with whatever the bow-using class will be, and im gonna be some sorta medium armor type fighter. were not into having tanks, to keep shit frentic. so yeah. hopefully druids will be around (i had a pretty awesome wind druid in 1.10) or at worst i guess i can go werewolf. Hopefully werewolf appearance (assuming druids are even in the game) will change based on weapon/eqp this time.
...Am i the only one who's feeling extremely nerdy in that I'm already excited for an unannounced EXPANSION to game that JUST got fucking announced? I'm just a little shocked at only 5 classes, so yeah.
KvP:
Just some speculation here...
We've read that they're aiming to make Diablo 3 a "better role-playing game", albeit one that's more MP-focused. And I've noticed that the character descriptions so far all detail class-specific backstory conflicts (the loss of what e'er sacred mountain for the barbs, the tribal conflict for the witch doctor) so what I'm thinking is possibly they'll have class-specific campaigns for SP and a big playground for MP? Maybe I'm reading to much into the descriptions.
