So, just how awesome will Diablo 3 be?

So awesome.

First!!! Ha just kiding it is going to kick fucking ass though.

 

[guess who]

As much as I loved the first Diablo and thought the second one was ok I know that this one will suck, they have strayed too far from the gothic horror roots, it wouldn't be bad if they had not called it a Diablo game and made it it's own setting.

I'm pretty sure the game won't disappoint. Even though the schaefer's are gone they will probably go up and beyond. I think it's too early to say much anyways.

And seriously anyone who is saying that the art style or something is too different. We've only seen like 3 videos, and apparently the game is supposed to be really big which means we've seen next to nothing which means all the people saying the style is too different are complete morons.

It's going to be my blowing/nut crunching/face shatteringly awesome

Diablo's roots had you in a constant state of descent. It gave you the impression that, yeah I'm getting closer to my goal because I'm getting closer to hell. Diablo now is about running through a jungle hitting tiny pigmy guys out of the way with your summoned minions.

Diablo III will, without a doubt, be fucking awesome.

However, I predict it will not be released until 2011. If we're lucky.

I'm really excited for the game, but I'll need to upgrade my video card first =\.

That pigmy slaughter was good fun. The first Diablo had a good premise but the only difference in environments were either more/less blood, gore, red, staircases, cast metal, etc. Diablo 2 at LEAST had you in smorgasbord of dungeon motifs.

I'm holding my breath. I played Diablo 2 religiously; back in the day when monotenous hack n' slash wasn't .. monotenous. My fear is that I may of out grown the style - I hope I'm wrong.
