No explanation need for this game unless you have been living under a rock for the last couple years.

I'm sure a lot of people have just soiled their pants at this announcement. I on the other hand haven't played the Diablo series yet, and don't plan on doing so any time soon.

Anyways, great news.

Diablo III will be great! I loved the first to because the design of the game was so simplistic yet effective. The second one employed the tank as being "the person who is the highest level with the most life and mana leach and can keep going for ever." one of the key features of the game that I hope they keep.

With World of Warcraft they introduced healers and tanks as two seperate classes, but if they include this in the Diablo series it will severly impact it gameplay wise. Healing was never a big part of the Diablo games, so my hopes rest with Blizzard keeping their two franchises separate.

I'm looking forward to Diablo 3. I loved Diablo and Diablo 2. I would not worry too much about WoW effecting Diablo 3 gameplay. Diablo has always been way too fast paced to have any mmo raid type roles.

Looks good! But looks can be deceiving.

I heard about this a while ago, but I'm much more excited about StarCraft II.
but I have only played a demo of Diablo 1, so I'm no.... well, "fan" really.
The demo was fun.... >.> <.< >.>

Starcraft....*shivers*

Ick...

Uh....did't like, 10 games do that before WoW was even an idea? Is so funny how most of the world thinks WoW was the dawn MMORPG's.

They added a timeline to the site. Nice to get a grip on how much time passes between events. I'm curious as to how much time they'll put between Diablo 2 and 3 seeing as how Cain is in it, it should be quite near each other.

I know I've thought myself to resist buying a game, because of trailers, websites or any form of media. I can't help to feel existed anyway.

I'm preparing for fail, but that's just my nature.

I hope Blizzard would maintain the schedule that they had set for this sequel of the Diablo series. And would not be another case of a "Starcraft Ghost" project, which after more than 4 years the game is isn't still finish. lol.

Blizzard haven't updated the Diablo 3 or Starcraft 2 website in quite some time. Seemed to have stopped updating after the Starcraft 2 being split announcement.

I think im going to now that my friend said he would play with me.

Seems decent... I might just give it a try after all! I just hope it won't take as long as Duke Nukem Forever to come out :P
I played Titan Quest some yonks ago and it got me interested in the whole overhead RPG genre. Then it crashed and ate my whole save file when I was a quest away from finishing it D:

Yes! I have been waiting so long for this.

That's great.. This gonna be more fun..
