I liked their usefulness in D2, especially the ActII mercs and their auras. Maybe they'll be more like Guild War's heroes?pocahaunted said:Gotta say I do hate the concept of mercs/followers, hope they are at least somewhat controllable unlike in Diablo 2 due to obvious issues with shitty AI. Still, I'd rather have them scrapped altogether, they just don't appeal to me at all.

D2 had its areas that were well done. Act IV and many portions of Act III were very well done (Durance of Hate especially). That said, D1's atmosphere is light years ahead of D2.Serious_Business said:Black said:So... awesome?Jasede said:Looks like Diablo 2 in 3D now.
No.
Fuck I don't know how anyone can get excited about this crap. Looks horrible. D2 already had bad aesthetics, too much of a bloody mess of colors, this looks even more terrible. They'll never capture the D1 feel again, which I suppose happened because it was a minimalistic game, so it gendered a minimalistic style. Minimalism is what you need for horror. The tone is lost here. The very idea of companions is bullshit and goes agaisnt the style. Looks and feels like a beat em up at this point

That's because the video showed the Xbox 360 version.fizzelopeguss said:Graphics are getting worse with each video, i don't get it.

sea said:Looks good, but it utterly baffles me how Blizzard are able to spend such ridiculous amounts of time and money on games that other, much smaller developers, can easily put out in a fifth of the time. I understand that larger companies means more quality control, more bureaucracy, more cooks in the kitchen, more testing and iteration, but seriously, guys, this game should have come out like two years ago.
Metro said:Din's Curse did the procedurally generated stuff well but it's basically just a flat out grind fest. I would hope a $60 Blizzard title would have a lot more polish in terms of story, depth, etc.
