They should just not have a story this time. You just wake up in a forest and now it's killin time. God damn D3 had a dumb as shit story.
Agreed. Seriously how the fuck did a group of grown ups green light the story. OH you beat my master plan!! Next time you won't...on and on and on. FARKKKKK. Anyone on this board could write a better story and that's saying something.

Killing Cain early in act 1 gave us a big fat signal on how shitty the writing was gonna be... and not like a badass death with Cain going all avanging angel mode and shit. No. Just a random bitch killing an iconic character like she accidently ran over him while parking at the mall.

Nothing.
Last patch to date :http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/9647...-5-7-2013#best
Blizzard focused on PS360 port. There is still no itemization patch or pvp, but tons of shitty wall of blue text about what they should do for D3. Damaged IP for sure.
D3 economy is dead, you can actually stuff a MP6 + character for some cheap millions. For example, 50.000.000 gold is now 1,49$ .... so for like 5$ you can faceroll the game. AS for leganday items, you only loot Mempo, Echoing Fury and yellow weapon, even if 98% of them will sux hard.
While POE staff still patching every week, D3 still years behind in term of content, game mechanic etc...

They better fix it with this add-on, and try to do a "LOD" d3 or the IP is dead until a maybe "d4"...
Well that's just depressing.

Still cant beleive they managed to fuck up diablo.Its like my brain wants to forget it.
But seriously, why is a low key dev company for PoE more active than the super goliath company blizzard is. And their game was free.

That doesnt even compute. We need to hire a ninja that could sneak in blizz hq with a gopro and show us whatever the fuck theyre doing. At this point, a D3 expension should be free dlc in an effort to make us forgive them the joke D3 was and forcing us to deal with Jay Wilson.
Yeah thats 100% correct, but sadly Blizzard 2013 just show what they are now. A big company thatmustfind way to maintain cash coming and you'll say "yeah like all other video game company". Problem is Blizzard won't take risk anymore like before (blizzard north + wow vanilla). People behind Blizzard just don't give a shit anymore, its just cocaine and whores everyday. Expect more wow expansion every years following the same plan (good marketing, a new one-shot quest hub for 10 more level, 1 raid content + patch for 6 month until next add-on) ala Everquest.
What next ?
- a dota like
- a card game able to run on IOS

The risk for Blizzard is to be raped by MOBA community, if its happens, it will be the first big fail for Blizzard in terms on $$, diablo 3 is the first fail (not money wise) but it was on the long term and only for core blizzard gamer.
Also i feel like even in KR, Sc2 turn to be less played by teenager wanabe PGM in favor of MOBA. If it stay that way, sc2 will be like quake 3 in some years...

This D3 expansion is really important, not for gamers but for the company. They can't fuck it up or core gamer and more blizzard tard fanboy will leave the bot. They can easily surprised everyone and do a free DLC for D3 expansion if u have the vanilla game. Free DLC with cash shop in it of course.

Expansion where you fight Death > Underworld/Death Realm > Meet Cain again! Maybe even bring him back because lore consistency is overrated anyway, most likely he becomes an angel instead. It was all an elaborate setup for the expansion storyline.

NO. FUCKING. STORY. EVER. AGAIN.

D1 story is best story:

There's a church over there with a bunch of monsters in it. Go kill them will you? We'll wait here. Oh, bring back stuff you find.

Pfft D1 had story, it just wasnt pushed into your face until you had to puke from it. Like the dying town person in front of the cathedral that you can click or not that is foreshadowing the butcher much better then the butterfly doing a wrestling introduction ending in "meeeet .. the BUTCHER!!!111"

Someone needs to do a parody of them remaking Diablo 1 with comments like "In Diablo we felt like you didn't really get to know the Butcher before you kill him, so we added a voiceover at the end of each level where he taunts you.

You know what though? D1 *sold* that like no other.

Hey, here you are.

Wait, shit seems to be all fucked up... and that desecrated church is likely why. Oh, and the Butcher is a myth likely but if not, going to fuck you sideways. And he will and does.

Better plot and narration than thousands of other games.

I think you would have hard time turning that into a comedy, it would be just sad.

"We wanted to emphasize how evil Diablo is, so we added several plots aimed to kill the player before confronting Diablo himself."

Palad...err Crusader, new level cap to unfuck itemization and focus to make actually enjoyable endgame ? Fingers crossed.

Goddammit. I just realized the final boss fight is going to have a "hide behind Tyreal as he shields you from the insta-kill ability". They make it look so cool in the cinematic, but it's so cliche now...

How many variations of: "You will never stop me from reaping all of the souls". Will they fit in?

while blizzard's cinematic team is always top notch... the story just seems... frick... i don't know, tired. how many times are we going to have diablo vanquished, just to guard his soul, just to have someone come and break him out, just to vanquish diablo, just to guard his soul, just to have someone come and break him out, just toblahblahblahblah.

sure, death is cool and all... it would be nice to protray death in a video game as a good guy... or at the very least, a neutral character. death reaps bad guys too...

anyways... it looks like the crusader is going have much more emphasis on having a shield... which could be cool, since no one uses shields unless you are woefully undergeared. it'll be interesting to see how that develops.

I can't bring myself to play through the game another 4x to get a new character to the endgame.
