AxelF Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Can someone link me where they talk about the new skills? I took a quick look at the D3 website, but couldn't find anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kouran Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 On the Diablo III demo I played the demonhunter, it did have the gender select button, though male was currently greyed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solmyr Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 It was stated in the Diablo Q&A panel that all classes will have both genders, they are simply not all playable yet. Only the female barbarian will have a different story because of gender, the rest will be class-specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Diablo III will be only be playable (even in SP) when online, Blizzard have banned mods outright and there'll be an in-game financial transaction house.Curiously, the Internet does not seem to have approved.

Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 WANT. Diablo 2 is my favorite Monty Hall Dungeon Crawling game ever! Can't wait til this is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo! Does that mean you have to pay a monthly? I'm not down with that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanteGabriel Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Boo! Does that mean you have to pay a monthly? I'm not down with that at all.Since they're monetizing their auction house they probably won't charge a subscription. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I'm trying to decide how excited I should be about Diablo 3. The auction house and DRM doesn't bother me, but I feel like I already scratched the Diablo itch with Torchlight not too long ago. I also have Titan Quest sitting in my Steam account from a random sale if I ever want that kind of gameplay.But, Blizzard games are such an event it seems like madness to pass it up. Maybe I'll be able to get it on a Black Friday deal. On Black Friday in 2007, I picked up Orange Box for 25 dollars, perhaps the best deal ever! :wideeyed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanteGabriel Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 The link between real-world money and in-game money has always been seen as Fraught with Peril. I'm curious to see how this works for Blizzard -- the next frontier in games, or a fractally clusterfucking clusterfuck... Probably both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Come on now. You know you'll play it. Torchlight is fun and all, but this is Diablo. ;)Yeah... you know it will have an incredible level of polish even if it's not particularly innovative. It will likely be impossible to resist with all my RL friends picking it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Since they're monetizing their auction house they probably won't charge a subscription. That's good news. I've never been able to justify paying a monthly fee on a game that I had to purchase in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Greguh Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 So I saw that announcement and thought to myself, "they can't possibly be legitimizing the chinese gold farming, can they?"Yup, looks like they certainly can be. This will not end well, methinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karaddin Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 It's not like they could ever stop it, legitimizing it helps prevent players getting scammed etc and allows blizzard to take a cut of it rather than eBay or whoever. I can see why they made a decision and don't have a problem with it.Now if they started selling items directly (ie items that someone hasn't had to farm up in game) that's a different story, but I can only see them doing so for vanity items which is ok.

Mack Kilimaro Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 With how pissed people get about antics on the WOW auction house, imagine how much more pissed they will get at undercutting wholesalers when real money is at stake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanteGabriel Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 That's good news. Well, don't take my word on it. I don't know for sure, I'm just making an educated guess, though I'm probably right. ;)I've never been able to justify paying a monthly fee on a game that I had to purchase in the first place.Servers, bandwidth, and customer support staff cost money.

The Dude Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 That's good news. I've never been able to justify paying a monthly fee on a game that I had to purchase in the first place.I don't think that was ever even a real consideration, regardless of these new AH developments.

Gargantuanjon Old Chap Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Servers, bandwidth, and customer support staff cost money.Exactly. D2 had minimal support because the money model couldn't sustain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
