Lol yeah, Nev has to get ready for BlizzCon. I wonder if the mysterious Blog-Posts she couldn’t finish in time for last years Blizzcon are finished by now 
Probably needs to prepare the next community meltdown when they show another mobile game noone wants, since they never learn from feedback anyway…

Blizzard is listening to us and Activision is covering her mouth with her hand.

Never forget that it is NetEase, and not Blizzard, that is making mobile games. There’s much more that could be said, but I leave it at this. It’s not even them. They’re just supervising a field they have no experience in.

A word so quick, we all seemed to have missed it.

Zzzz… is it BlizzCon yet? It’d truly be a spectacle of failure if they really had NOTHING to say till next BlizzCon… maybe the forges weren’t so hot after all eh?

They will anounce D4 and more stuff to show how they “hear” their players, but I have 0 faith in Blizzard. They can release all the games they want I will buy 0

And what happens if Blizzard just happens do everything correctly, and it becomes the new platinum standard of ARPGs?
Never say Never…
This would be realistically possible only if Blizzard splits from Activision.
For Blizzard to be the “platinum standard” under Activision, Bobby Kotick and the greedy investors must actually care for the consumers and offer value for money for their games.
They would have to completely let go of the predatory monetization practices (loot boxes, pay-to-win etc) that has been poisoning games in recent years.
They would actually have to contemplate the long forgotten art of making quality games instead of trying sneaky ways to bleed gamers’ wallets dry without a second thought.
Does that sound like something they would even think about, let alone do?

So true.
The Code of Conduct is that open book able to ban anyone the system here does not care for.

Yeah, it basically says “If anyone could potentially be offended by something, you can be banned for it.” It doesn’t matter if someone IS offended…so that this is a completely meaningless rule that allows banning of every post, since someone COULD be offended by the mere fact “an answer” even exists… oh well, can’t have people engaging on equal terms…

Phew - what a read…
I suppose anyone could say that some people hear what they want to hear, but that is pointless.
Does anyone not know what “Classic Game Status” is??
Just in case, Diablo III has been relegated to this status.
So new sets, new items, new affixes and more things that are new additions are considered as NOT being obligatory. ‘Classic Game Status’ means that their only obligation is to do bug fixes and random patches whenever they feel like it.
Not because anyone wants it or for that matter demands it.
I know some people are grateful that they are doing changes as am I, but to complain about something where they have no obligation do do jack sh!t might be bordering on …
(Add any word indicating lack of the big picture)
That’s not the point. The point is, they said after last BlizzCons fallout that they are “fully comitted to engage”, and that “the forges are burning hot”, and that “We hear you”…
And then, feedback came. And came. And came. That was almost a year ago by now, and no answer whatsover, not the slightest hint that the feedback even gets acknowledged.
And that makes them liars.

The Paragon System needs a complete revamp. Itemization, as well. Maybe something similar to the old Talent Tree in World of Warcraft, but a bit bigger…
Right now, the game is just too… monotonous for me to play it. Rerolling every season brings little to no end to that, so it isn’t worth the time.
Honestly, I don’t think there is much they can do that can change things enough to matter.
I’m basically waiting for Diablo IV, at this point.
It’s too bad PoE makes it a royal PITA to respect your character. Could have been my game, but I got tired of leveling to 70+ just to “try a new build” only to realize that it’s less work to start over and try a different one than try to respect all of those invested skill points with currency.

I have to say that I got to like D3’s system of “everything can be changed on a whim” as well. Mainly because I don’t have the time to level a new character for three weeks just to try out a new build anymore, that was fine in D2 when I was in school. Yeah the identification with your character lessens, but it allows me to play each season without worries, it’s basically the fast-food of ARPGs 
PS: Nothing blue in here still…who would’ve thought
So, any news ?
I’m still laughing to think that blizzard executives thought it was a good idea to present a mobile p2w game to an audience of hardcore pc players.
Players who for years had literally begged them to give a GAME for PC (no books, no artworks, no comics, no “multiple projects”) and also had paid a very expensive ticket to attend that event
Sure, what could go wrong?

watch again this year to see if they can repeat that one.
as id expect DI to be launched come blizzcon like its some big deal. 12 months to push out what for all purposes is a reskinned game (yeah suuuuuuure its all new) the only new thing is the art style and the way the diablo devs (yes you wyatt) thought it would be a good idea to antagonise you’re loyal MONEY PAYING fans.
il say it again if he pulls something similar this year i can see him taking a phone between the eyes from the back of the hall. but i some how expect all the question takers will be heavily vetted (streamers only) and then will have to sign something agreeing they wont change their nice safe question once they ask it or face legal ramifications.
