Trailers: Diablo 3: Demon Hunter

[Tiagojdferreira]

meh
I really loved Diablo 1, but Diablo went in a completely different direction then I expected.
This looks so cartoony. The cool thing about Diablo 1 was that it tried to look real giving you an immersion that Diablo 2 failed to deliver and Diablo 3 seems yet to fail again.
We went from dark dungeons and horrifying demons to all in the open with creatures that even though look pretty cool, fail to give you any tension.
In Diablo 1 an enemy was a threat, in Diablo 2 it was just a small obstacle in the way and in Diablo 3 it seems you can kill all the enemies in the scenario in one shot.
I know that the fact that you can kill a lot of enemies doesn't mean that the game is easier, it just means it has more monsters, taking away the threatening status out of each monster.
I'm probably going to buy it because I'm sure it's an awesome game. It just isn't what it could really be.

Damn awesome trailer...but who the hell wrote those awful oneliners?

 

[Rblade]

gotta love blizz. they strangle us for our money. but they return the awesome, and you have to respect that. cheesy or not I can't wait for Diablo 3

 

[BlueInkAlchemist]

Am I the only one who's reminded of Kasumi from Mass Effect 2?

Nope. And I consider this a good thing.

 

[Wilbot666]

I've been a little dubious about Diablo III so far, but some of the reveals like this one are slowly starting to change my mind.

Guess I'd better start saving for a new PC so I can play it huh?

 

[RejjeN]

Clearly the Demon Hunter is a dom' and likes to step on demons with those steel heels.

 

[CosmoK]

Hmm, probably try DH on my second playthrough. I really liked the Monk gameplay trailers, so that'll be my first character class.

 

[TheTejs]

This is going to be what the rogue was for WoW
OVERUSED

 

[MrHero17]

I always thought the last class would be a ranged amazon assassin hybrid(that or amazon druid), looks like the demon hunter will be pretty cool to play as. Dual mini crossbows FTW!

 

[Djed Moros]

Guess the writer for this trailer used his brains as the payload for those explosive shells ...

 

[Grey_Focks]

Wow, that looked pretty cool. Now I'm seriously starting to look forwad to this game next year, along with Guild Wars 2.

Might I ask what dream world you're living in that this game will be coming out next year? I ofcourse hope you're right, but I would not hold my breath.

OT: Great, now I'm even more conflicted on what character to play first...seriously, that looked awesome in-game.

 

[Smasngrab]

Concerning the high heels, thats just becaus shes that good, she needs a chalange. And the reloading, its the same as old hong kong movies, insanly fast reloads, faster than the speed of light infact, so you cant see it.... 8p

 

[Echo136]

I was going to play monk but this is my new favorite. Definately awesome.

 

[saxa]

Who wrote the bloody dialogue? A five year old?

Really I've come to expect more from blizz =(

Hope it'll be out soon!

 

[John Funk]

People complaining about the dialogue have clearly never played a Blizzard game before. Their dialogue is the very definition of Narm Charm. It's ALWAYS been like that.

I mean, have you guys played WC2? "The orcs... have DRAGONS...!!!!"

 

[A Pious Cultist]

This was cheesy as all hell... but also kind of awesome... but also really cheesy in almost every way.

 

[Dr. Dice Lord]

*eye twitch* ...

 

[Whispering Death]

I think Blizzard watched one too many John Woo movies.

I might argue that, as an art-form, gaming has evolved a lot since 1998. Components of Blizzard games, like the writing, seem to have not kept up with the times.

Unfortunately, I'm beginning to sour on Blizzard as they don't seem to have evolved with us. Starcraft 2 was little more than a reboot of the 1998 version, Diablo 3 looks equally as "safe". Not that there's anything wrong with that. Lots of people like to buy these games.

But I'd rather stick with the more progressive fare that Valve and Bioware are putting out.

Her armor is pulled right out of WoW. Sigh.
