the game design is over your head apparently.. But what they have done is basically genius for character customization & custom build developments.. I had the same feelings when I first looked it over.. There are no character levels for sale and there are no best items end game, only top tier. That's where you customize. Stats are random so you look for the stats for your build. Which means you can still have youre, Melee & up close magic, battle Mage build. Just about any build you can fathom you can make and play end game without being awful.I was waiting, and waiting, and waiting, and they kept postponing, and postponing, and postponing, and then they fucked the game up...
*Yeah for a WOW wannabe game!* No more randomly generated items, you can paypal high level characters directly from the developer, purchase the best items for real $ day the game starts...
I was and will always be a HUGE fan of D1 and D2, but D3 unfortunately looks like garbage (imo).
LOL is that Seriously what you thing? you are VERY misinformed my friend.*Yeah for a WOW wannabe game!* No more randomly generated items, you can paypal high level characters directly from the developer, purchase the best items for real $ day the game starts...
Armor and weapons function much as they did in previous games in the series. Players find low level gear early on, and one of the major goals/enjoyments of playing is to find better quality gear and thus improve your character's performance. One big change to the appearance of armor is the elimination of exception and elite versions of gear. Unlike in Diablo II, Diablo III characters will not find the exact same looking armor repeated on each difficulty level. Instead there are 18 "tiers" of armor, organized into something the developers call gear sets.
Each gear set has a distinctive, organized look, and thus a character wearing all (or most) of say, gear set 14, would have a cohesive, coherent appearance as the items would match each other. The developers have released numerous screenshots of the classes in complete gear sets, and they are stylish indeed. It's less clear, in advance of playing the higher levels, just how often (if ever) a character will have most or all of the same gear set on, or if characters will always be clad in a mixture of different level equipment.
Item quality is similar to that of Diablo II, with item scarcity progressing normal > magical > rare > set > legendary (the new name for unique items). There should be more mixing and matching at the highest levels, with rare, set, and legendary items of approximately-equivalent quality, depending on the random mods they spawn with.
#1: Gear IS randomly generated. just because they have Specific looks now doesn't mean the fucking mechanic's are the same.....What is the Diablo III auction house system?
Acquiring epic new gear for your characters has always been a big part of the Diablo experience. Because of this, players have found a number of different ways to trade and otherwise obtain items both within and outside of the game. Many of these methods were inconvenient and either tedious (for example, repeatedly advertising for a desired trade in Battle.net chat channels and waiting for responses) or unsafe (e.g., giving credit card information to third-party trading sites). With Diablo III, were introducing a powerful auction house system that will provide a safe, fun, and easy-to-use way for players to buy and sell the loot they find in the game, such as weapons, armor, and runes. Two different versions of the auction house will be available in Diablo III: one based on in-game gold, which players acquire through their adventures, and one based on real-world currency.

I'm guessing $500 will be cheap for certain items. There are still D2 classic items selling for higher than that - and there's far less than ~1000 continuous D2 players (non LOD).Lol, I can't help but laugh how people will actually spend money to buy virtual items in this game. I mean if that's not the biggest scam I've ever heard of please fucking shoot me. Virtual items having no real stock value, these developers are probably sitting back laughing their cunts and dicks off making up huge price tags for these digital items and ripping kids off....the cash flow these companies people are getting from stupid consumers is amazing.
There's probably going to be a "warlock cape" or some shit for $500 USD.
LOL And paper money does??? Another peice of Mis-information right there...Virtual items having no real stock value
Heres a little something for you that you may not realize..... JSP doesn't just GIVE AWAY FG, you have to buy it..... you can trade for it yes, but ALL of the FG in circulation was Baught and payed for at one time. Cinsidering the fact that $100 = 3175 FG, and i know people with over 1,000,000 Fg that means they have roughly $40,000 USD worth of Forum gold which is STUCK on D2jsp..... im sure MANY of them would be willing to take a 15% Cut to withdraw the other $32,000......You two at all familiar with d2jsp? With the paypal system it will be the equivalent in D2 of nonjsp players compared to jsp players, except that it'll be real $ versus forum gold - of which blizzard takes a whopping 15% cut?
Little peice of history.... since people dont truly know it....Hope it holds up to your hype.
Simple answer: Because everything has allready been done. make a new game and its a "Rip off" make a Sequel and people who played the first are likley to play the second.Why is it there are so many sequels nowadays and no original games?
