If you're even a remote fan of Blizzard, you've seen the splash screens and the evil penguin, and read all the speculation on what their next game is. With a webpage take over of diablo3.com after some years, a splash screen that has 5 runes in a pentagram, a face that looks like diablo, a handbook handed out before the invitational that has Diablos face on it, and the evil penguin having 3 fingers like Diablo, it looks VERY MUCH like it will be Diablo 3 for sure.

You can follow this hot topic here: http://pc.ign.com/articles/884/884836p1.html
Or here: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6193003.html?tag=topslot;title;1&om_act=convert&om_clk=topslot

You can see the splash pic on www.blizzard.com or something.

weeee

EDIT EDIT EDIT:
live stream: http://www.mmo-champion.com/index.php?topic=9419.0

Holy shit I am watching the stream right now.
DIABLO 3 LOOKS INSANE! I am buying this game.

They have some old school sound effects in the game. This is incredible.

sounds like the demo's over I'll definetly make a massive update once BlizzCon hits this October.

From the sound of it I wonder if Witch Doctor will replace the Necromancer

the splash was updated btw

here's a rly bad image (it was fast sry) of the bad guy in the demo. at the end he summons 5 red orbs that form a pentagram and summoned a huge horde that basically killed everyone.


Someone probably recorded the stream, and it'll probably be up later.

I'm not really a fan of Diablo but I'll see how it turns out. Seeing how Blizzard have fuckload of money, they should afford to make some great games, and they surely got the skill too.

DIABLO OWNS

for those who couldn't see the stream:
-Barbarian and Witch Doctor classes revealed so far
-Deckard Cain is back
-Uses battle.net
-Supports instant co-op matchmaking
-Has a skillbar
-Supports tab/mousewheel for quick swapping between skills on a mouse button
-Destructible environments (barb uses a skill that destroyed a wall and crushed some zombies)
-Enchantment system to enchant your weapons like in WoW.
-Monsters drop red orbs that can heal you.
-More traps in the game.
-Ladders that work, instead of loading a new map, you just traverse to a new area. Seems to be seamless.
-Also has female/male versions of each class.

So I'm watching the gameplay video and seriously, what is so amazing about this? It looks like any other dungeon crawler ever.

RED ORBS GIVE HEALTH OH MY GOD
A TREASURE CHEST IS... A TRAP!?

I admit that the graphics looks really good though, but I can't help but think that the gameplay will get boring really quickly.
