I played the shit out of Diablo II. I played that game for years with my friends. There is probably no other game that would draw an equal amount of hype from me.

Tural, no joke you just made my day. Thank you so much for posting this. I felt the same way about Diablo II, I still play it, I cannot wait for this game.

Perhaps making use of Wirt's fourth leg.

For reference:
Wirt's leg in Diablo II.
Wirt's Other Leg in Warcraft III.
Wirt's Third Leg in World of Warcraft.

lawl. I also agree about that cow level, I know they put it in for fun, but another reason they put it in was to add a realistic look at what would actually happen in the game, I wish they did more of that in Diablo 2. Maybe they will do more in Diablo 3.

EDIT: maybe they will make the Oculus will be ethereal this time >.>

DII was probably my most played game back awhile ago, I'd definitely get this if my computer can handle it, which I doubt... :(

Is it still going to be server based, or is it actually going to be a MMO?

I would assume that it would stay true to Diablo 1 and 2, in the fact that it is server based.

I think my favorite thing about it is that they didn't change it as much as I thought they would. I figured for sure it'd be a closer view of the character (basically WoW in a more condensed form) but they're sticking to the originals, which is good.

I wanna see what new skills will be available for the Barb.
And I definitely wanna see some new rune words. :)

Talking about diablo is making me miss my frenzy and concentrate barbarians. :(

I love how you have that larger skill bar at the bottom instead of the two skills. I want to be able to hotkey those to letters on my keyboard.

1. Love the looks of the game so far
2. Love the new UI
3. Love how physics are put in
4. Love how bosses can finish off players, watch the end of the gameplay footage to know what im talking about.
