Diablo 3

[Phaera]

You're all assholes.

^ This.

[Allara]

This is so totally inspired by WoW it's hilarious.

And yet, so good.

I'm really happy they kept the same music style. The game looks amazing at 2560x1440.

[boopie]

wtf compensating much?

[Allara]

Huh? Who are you even talking to?

[boopie]

Everyone?

Hey, I signed up for the year thingie whatever too! Where's my invite???

The annual pass only gets you beta access to MOP not D3.

[boopie]

So!

[Lonskils]

Hey, did anyone else just get a beta invite?

[Andaas]

See above... a couple of us have.

[Lonskils]

I was just rubbing it in a bit on Valdis and Pharea, as I had read above....

[Glimbert]

I got my beta invite too I'm looking forward to it!

[Zeyla]

No Beta invite for me

Allara, how is it like WoW? I'm curious

It's mostly in the user interface.

• Quest objective tracker
• Help pop-ups
• UI elements when you level up and gain new abilities
• Action bar/experience bar/menu bar
• Mini-map
• Character creation/select screens
• Launcher/patcher
• Login screen

So far it's really well polished and exceptionally well-paced. It's the subtle stuff particularly in sound design and graphical effects that add up to a highly polished experience so far. The way they handled voiceover content is great.

I love the "hunter" class so far, although with a monitor as big as mine is, it's really hard to keep track of my Hatred energy whilst defeating hordes of baddies. I find that to be a pretty big problem with combat, something add-ons would fix. But I don't think they're allowing add-ons for D3.

I really want them to port Evasive Shot back to WoW. Because that would make Dave really happy in PvP. *sarcastic face*

There's a nasty issue with texture/model streaming right now, where the game stutters quite frequently, making it very hard to play.

The Witch hunter is crazy fun, but I have played all the classes. I think the hardest class to play is the wizard as it is such a glass cannon. Even with the armor spells its just silly how much dmg they take. My Barbarian takes like nothing, I barely ever used pots on him.

What little I played of D3 a few years ago at Blizzcon made me excited to play it, I can imagine it is looking even better now!

[Valdis]

Yea I was a bit disappointed with the Wizard at Blizzcon this year cause the damage was never great and the damage I took was brutal. But the Demon Hunter was a blast. I just wish they had a more melee type class that was like a paladin.

[Valdis]

Well Blizz gave Kath a Beta Key....... So I guess, I'll be at her house this weekend.

So.....

Like normal?! lol

[Valdis]

Yea, so the Wizard was working pretty good. I'm not sure how fragile I was cause nothing really got close enough to me to worry over. But I'm only up to the graveyard.

[Elidroth]

No beta invite for me.. they can kiss my white ass.
