I actually like the skill/talent system in this game. All skills can be unlocked for a certain class but any given time you have to choose a few to use. Therefore, there is no need to reset your skills if you change your mind.
People complain about the look of Diablo in this one vs D2 but I have to say i'm loving how Diablo looks at least in the trailers so far. Really menacing
0:44 Imperius : The Archangel of Valor. This guy is supposed to be one of the act end bosses if not the final boss of the game according to the data-mined boss quest screens from beta.
Know your Archangels 0:44 Imperius, Archangel of Valor 0:50 Tyrael, Archangel of Justice 0:51 Auriel, Archangel of Hope 0:53 Imperius 0:57 Tyrael 1:23 Imperius (on the church window) 1:44 Imperius (close up on the church window) 2:08 Imperius (last time on the chuch window before being smashed by the comet)
Only a little bit, Blizzard are very good at making games accessible to new comers. I was in the same boat as you for Starcraft 2. It always helps with the story though to play the others. But yeh, it will still make total sense.
@BlackFrost1728 "it's development started in 2004" The original developers of the Diablo franchise, Blizzard North (Condor), actually made a lot of headway with D3 by then I believe. They got fired and the game was scrapped. This is the first time that Blizzard itself has made a Diablo game. It will also be their last as they have stated, except for maybe an expansion.
@fo7429 I dont know what your sources are, but AFAIK it will be a one time investment. The game is Online Only, even if you choose to play Single Player Campaign. The battle.net has been an integral part of the Diablo series since the original Diablo. I am pretty sure that Diablo III does not have a monthly subscription fee. But still, Ill check again to be sure and let you know !
Is it wrong for me to feel sorry for Deckard Cain? He's been through so much, seeing Diablo die twice, saw the Zakarum get corrupted, saw Tristram die out and the destruction of the Worldstone and after being there the people of Sanctuary ignore his words that even his adopted niece probably never believed him. So old and frail, yet focused on helping others, he's a great man.
@0451Deus Honestly, I wouldn't blame them for doing that. They have done an amazing job maintaining Diablo 2 and releasing content for it long after what most other companies would have done.
@ViruStaffo it was announced a while back with the whole real money auction house that D3 is going to be online only requiring a constant battlenet connection to be able to play. Seems like Blizzard likes the whole online only thing.
worth pointing out there are some statistics which anticipated 5 million units of the game being sold in the first year. that incorporates an estimated 1 million WOW pass pre-orders. If we include that with the 726K pre-orders(up 70K from 2 days ago...) that is 1.7 million pre-orders . Also your pre-order source is just USA's numbers. Assuming Europe and Asia have similar levels thats 3.1 mill. ^_^ so he wasn't far off.
I know of 'a' release date but im not sure if im allowed to say. It was on a ticket advertising a pre-order-able version of diablo 3 in my local electronics store. it was 30th of March. (2012).
Some of the older games are still huge fun.I play The Witcher 1&2,and still play Morrowind along side that.MW is till my favorite game,hands down.Even after all these years. :) If the graphics on most games arent to ones liking,just mod them,and make them look better.There is still an active modding base for Morrowind.
I suspected as much. If you analyze VGchartz you can easily see that their numbers do not correlate with annual sales-figures that companies report to their share-holders. Therefore the only conclusion you can extrapolate is that the figures are from the sites native country, namely the US of A.
@Bored2Deth1 : You think? I heard it was done because they don't want players cheating when they sell items online, all items gained are recorded online. Selling items online makes Blizz gain part of the sale. I just wish they make an offline version. When I said "Video game companies, why must they be so greedy." I was generalizing.
NO, its a game about items and amulet. I have played both 2 and 1 and both of them a different in term of items and player characters. i think u will get into game very fast, but make sure to look a trade market, selling and buying items to know each item, amulet, rings and other stuff are worth.
@Kefroth1 In my younger days I played the nintendo64, and that was all I had, and get this. I'm not even 18 yet, so even though I'm not an adult yet. I still know about the good ol' days.
@MarzX1802 way too many people seem to associate beta with what are actually server stress tests and early entries that for some reason get called beta tests.
Leahs vision is completely explained in the book of cain... Those angels decending from heaven and the demons coming from hell is actually a scene from 'The sin war'... I just came back to watch it after reading it XD
Yes indeed, Blizzard took a long time on developing this game, but i'm sure they are atleast trying to decide whether to bring back the scary atmosphere back from the epic Diablo 1
Do you think we might have to fight uncorrupted angels this time? It's possible you know. Inarius had to fight a mortal before he died. Maybe we get to see Trag'Oul, the guardian of the sanctuary, and talk to him about how to restore the balance of the world. :3
The last few comments were 9 years ago
Thought i'd give this game a whirl
the beginning with this 2D and 3D combination looked amazing
Had this game on preorder for a few months now already :D. Can't wait!
Been waiting for this ever since they announced it. Cant wait for it to come out.
"It has begun."
Oh Deckard Cain, you should know by now...it has never ended.
I've been waiting so long.... this game better be AMAZING
I've literally waited most of my life for this to happen.
...Thank you fellow follower of the Horadrim. May Cain rest happy for all us players!
I believe that just watching the whole walkthrough of this game can make my head exploded.
Oh my God, im just getting a flashback of how incredible it was to be in Lut Golain tradding with the merchants!! A game so good it was impossible
I CANNOT WAIT ANY LONGER!! OMFG!!! 8 MORE DAYS PPL!! GET RDY!
"Hello my friend, it's been a long time"
"Like 10 years. How's life been for you?"
"Ah, pretty good, I got some cool stories to tell, so why don't you stay a while and liste-"
*leaves*
Thank you for acknowledging that statement.
3.5 million preorders and counting.
See you at release!
I used to do that when i was your age when the game first came out. Mini LAN party, play till 6AM. Great times :)
Great cinematic!
I actually like the skill/talent system in this game. All skills can be unlocked for a certain class but any given time you have to choose a few to use. Therefore, there is no need to reset your skills if you change your mind.
that makes sense on the beta.
That's quite a treasure you've got there in that horadric cube!
I played them for the first time online with my friends the other day. We spent 6 hours plundering caves and such. It's a blast with friends.
Amazing artwork at the start :-)
Unbelievable graphics and atmosphere...Nobody can beat Blizzard in this.
@0:11-1:06
probably the best depiction of Heaven vs. Hell I have ever seen
Wow can't wait for this game.. finally.
People complain about the look of Diablo in this one vs D2 but I have to say i'm loving how Diablo looks at least in the trailers so far. Really menacing
that raven on the helmet is a throwback to the original diablo opening.
Deckard Cain ... a man so powerful when struck by a meteorite it doesn't crush him it just pushes him through the ground
@Wightblaz On Target website, under PC games, they're selling the D3 collectors edition. The release date says: Tuesday, February 7, 2012.
yes FINALLY!!! after long years of waiting.. more than a decade of wait.. i guess or less.. its finally going to be release this May
oh my god, oh my god, oh my god 3 years since they announced it. It's about fucking time!
Huh, very cool. Blizzard have always been one of the best for producing jaw-dropping cinematics.
See you at release!
I hope one day actual gameplay graphics will be as good as the graphics in these cinematics
My most wanted game of all times and released on my birthday... A SIGN! :D
0:44 Imperius : The Archangel of Valor. This guy is supposed to be one of the act end bosses if not the final boss of the game according to the data-mined boss quest screens from beta.
Know your Archangels
0:44 Imperius, Archangel of Valor
0:50 Tyrael, Archangel of Justice
0:51 Auriel, Archangel of Hope
0:53 Imperius
0:57 Tyrael
1:23 Imperius (on the church window)
1:44 Imperius (close up on the church window)
2:08 Imperius (last time on the chuch window before being smashed by the comet)
Every fantasy video game/tv show/ movie must have the line "It has begun....".
this is beautiful!
@NFLBFantasyLeague Couldn't Disagree with you more.
I love this cinematic!
cant wait to play this game
Only a little bit, Blizzard are very good at making games accessible to new comers. I was in the same boat as you for Starcraft 2. It always helps with the story though to play the others. But yeh, it will still make total sense.
they were going to make a Warcraft movie years ago, but it's been put on hold for like ever.
@BlackFrost1728 "it's development started in 2004"

I will definitely be playing this....
goose bumps every time i watch this,
Is it wrong for me to feel sorry for Deckard Cain? He's been through so much, seeing Diablo die twice, saw the Zakarum get corrupted, saw Tristram die out and the destruction of the Worldstone and after being there the people of Sanctuary ignore his words that even his adopted niece probably never believed him. So old and frail, yet focused on helping others, he's a great man.
I wish the mouse cursor was still that little metal hand.... I'll miss you little metal hand.
Finaly Blizzard is looking badass and awesome again!
This game will be spoken for centuries! Blizzard are GOD OF GAME!
The fire probably died out and now you have blue ephereal star matter left over. In beta notice how the crater isn't on fire; it's just glowing.
This game is gonna be soo good..
Can't wait to play Diablo III :DDDD

@0451Deus Honestly, I wouldn't blame them for doing that. They have done an amazing job maintaining Diablo 2 and releasing content for it long after what most other companies would have done.
Just this trailer made me pre-order Diablo 3
Blizzard is stabbing me in the heart with this..... I need to know when the game comes out!
@ViruStaffo it was announced a while back with the whole real money auction house that D3 is going to be online only requiring a constant battlenet connection to be able to play. Seems like Blizzard likes the whole online only thing.
How many players of Diablo and Diablo 2 have already sons who will play this game with them for sure?
Yes, but thanks for updating me ! Regardless awesome !

The monster that destroyed the Sanctuary is AZMODAN, one of the lesser evils (who plans to take the black soulstone to transform into a prime evil)
I know of 'a' release date but im not sure if im allowed to say. It was on a ticket advertising a pre-order-able version of diablo 3 in my local electronics store. it was 30th of March. (2012).
I can't wait for Diablo 3! I already ordered my shirt to celebrate. Hopefully some more girls like myself will appreciate this masterpiece :)
never found thes games fun or worth it but the coms always get you pumped
The armies of Light and Shadow will clash across the fields of ETERNITY! SO HYPE!
No, actually feeling for him is something you should be proud of
This game is going to be so awesome that my kids will play it...
Some of the older games are still huge fun.I play The Witcher 1&2,and still play Morrowind along side that.MW is till my favorite game,hands down.Even after all these years. :) If the graphics on most games arent to ones liking,just mod them,and make them look better.There is still an active modding base for Morrowind.
man blizzard always make the sickest trailers... If they make movies i would watch it

Omfg the dream part was awesome
Hell, it's about time
lets wait and see :)
I hope the Apocalypse will really be that epic

15.05.2012 will be a historic day, a day where virginity protection reaches immortality .
The 15th may Ill be single again. Thank you Blizzard.
I teared up when I watched this..
NO, its a game about items and amulet. I have played both 2 and 1 and both of them a different in term of items and player characters. i think u will get into game very fast, but make sure to look a trade market, selling and buying items to know each item, amulet, rings and other stuff are worth.

I cried. When i saw this, I cried.
@tobyost i think there's a quest where you go after him, i remember seeing it in the beta vids.
I remember how hyped i got ... then everything got shattered into pieces once i played the game
That's one hell of a run-on sentence.
looks like its gonna kick off in diablo 3 cant wait :-)
i think they could make a movie for Diablo :) the Graphics is freakin awsome!
0:50 LOVE this Angel!!! Looks like a Mage! haha
Love this too!
@MarzX1802
way too many people seem to associate beta with what are actually server stress tests and early entries that for some reason get called beta tests.
Amazing graphics!
About time...
"INSANITY!" screams a shireking voice sending chills down my spine as I just watched this. When will this come out at last?!
If by Belial you mean Baal and by Deckard Cain you mean bad ass old guy... this story just got a hell of a lot more interesting
@GIenfiddich They haven't announced it yet. Theories place it between January 17 and sometime in March.
Leahs vision is completely explained in the book of cain... Those angels decending from heaven and the demons coming from hell is actually a scene from 'The sin war'... I just came back to watch it after reading it XD
Another reason Caine is badass, he got hit by a meteor and survived
Yes indeed, Blizzard took a long time on developing this game, but i'm sure they are atleast trying to decide whether to bring back the scary atmosphere back from the epic Diablo 1
my god this game is gonna be amazing im so ready :) until then keep playing diablo 2 :)
Do you think we might have to fight uncorrupted angels this time? It's possible you know. Inarius had to fight a mortal before he died. Maybe we get to see Trag'Oul, the guardian of the sanctuary, and talk to him about how to restore the balance of the world. :3
what can I say... Epic intro is epic
