Proof that Diablo 3 is Coming!?


Recommended Posts

Death Knights, the new hero class in WoW WOTLK, use an exclusive RUNE-BASED magical system.

RUNE based.

RUNE BASED

Splash screen...ice...runes...get it?

I think Blizzard is creative enough to not recycle runes from other games.

I'm gonna chime in on this one.

I highly doubt they are making a Starcraft MMO. Why? Because there isn't enough history to create an MMO around the Starcraft universe.

Warcraft had 3 games to build a good, rich history with, and that translated into a good MMO. Starcraft has had one game, and an expansion, and I don't think that's enough history to build an MMO around.

I think these teasers are going to concern either 1)public beta of WotLK, or 2)release date for WotLK.

I could be wrong, but I still don't believe they are going to do a Starcraft MMO.

Exactly. There isn't a strong MMO base in the StarCraft universe. It makes for a good RTS with a rich storyline but as an MMO, it'll require much more history. And again, it wouldn't make sense to announce a StarCraft MMO when the development of StarCraft 2 is already well under way.

Here's a new take on things.

What if they're advertising all three of their franchises they're most known for in one swell foop, as it were?

The eyes, are, as mentioned above, Diablo minion like eyes. = Diablo 3?

The ice, is Wrath of the Lich King. = Warcraft/World of Warcraft.

The apparent Protoss thing, is.. well.. you got it.. Starcraft.

This whole thing is plugging all three of their products.

I saved your post in a .txt file. I also bookmarked the link to your post so I could refer to it in the future. If you're wrong, then your inside source is feeding you false information. As unlikely a StarCraft MMO may seem, there's always the possibility. Take a look at StarCraft 2 for example. Most people would've never expected Blizzard to announce it especially since they replied to e-mails regarding the issue. Blizzard's previous stance on StarCraft 2 was that it "wasn't on their list".

Anyway, if what you said is true then I certainly wonder how Blizzard is going to pull off something like that. The best of luck to them!

Yeah I'm curious how it could be pulled off too. I've known the guy for quite a while and he's never given me any kind of wrong info like this. Only thing I wonder is if it will be announced at WWI or later because if they're just at the stages of finding a host for the chat system, I would think the game is pretty early in development.

This is why Blizzard is such a great company. They've created an interest in whatever it is they will or will not announce that rivals Halo's viral marketing campaigns. Watching the ridiculous speculation and fact-finding must be even more fun for them than it is for me.

For those of you insisting that it's SC2 why would they REannouce a game that has already been confirmed as under development. Same for those of you who think it's WOTLK.

I'm HOPING it's D3, and I'm skeptical about it. But thinking it's going to be SC2 or WOTLK just doesn't make sense at all.

I don't want to crush anyone's dreams whose using the hyperbole that "Teh eyes! They line up with the Diablo 2 box arts!".. but..

Uh..

Why would they use the same kind of figure for Diablo 3, that they used for Diablo 2, especially if it was for box art / PR art / concept art?..

Blizzard's main offices are located in Irvine, California..

Burgas (the capital), Bulgaria is approximately 6,743 miles or 10,851 kilometers away from Irvine (damn I love the usefulness of the internet..).

its blizzard they are using it to give use hints

I guess. They're pretty damn vague hints. Even the hints about World of Warcraft weren't as subtle as these are.

Let us dream! :p

I'm hoping, and dreaming for Diablo 3 just like any other Diablo player, but, I'm not letting the hype get the better of me.

I'm just remaining cautiously optimistic.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
    • Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend.
