I don't care about any new games from Blizzard after they began with their always online BS. (Diablo 3 anyone?)
This upcoming game also is going to be always online mmo-style like its predecessor.

One second thing i really do not like is, that Blizzard is now partially owned by TenCent just like Epic Games.

They can eat my short staff.
Seriously nothing more then Diablo 2 HD.. its a downgrade from D3 but hey... ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶f̶l̶i̶n̶e̶ ̶p̶l̶a̶y̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶n̶e̶e̶d̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶a̶ ̶n̶e̶t̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶n̶e̶c̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶I̶'̶m̶ ̶1̶0̶0̶%̶ ̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶i̶n̶. unless they did something stupid like got rid of the random level generation then Fuuuuuuuuuuu this to hell!

Edit: its not Offline and works as a shared world like Destny 2.. forced always online with latency caps.. PeaceOut girl scout, this game is done!

BeatriceElysia: Guess it's official why Diablo and Warcraft resurfaced here.
It means we might see more WC and D2:LOD at some point soon.

Because?
No offline mode lol

Mr.Mumbles: I still can't quite fathom why this had to be a separate game rather than just an add-on, considering that pretty much everything carries over and that OW1 players will be able to play on OW2 maps with OW2 players. (Very slightly) Shinier graphics could also have been a simple upgrade.
I am guessing they sell people a new copy of the "new game" vs simply patching it into the current game for free or next to nothing? That, if the case, could be why.

Also sometimes the hype of a "sequel" brings more players into the user base.

Swedrami: Not to mention that always-online will be mandatory and that the whole game is very likely designed from the ground up around multiplayer shite.

Good guess!

I'll still keep calling DRM a bug, not a feature.

With the recent bad press and bad actions Blizzard has had, i'm not so sure the fans are going to be racing in line to get it... Unlike if it happened say last year... Say they didn't do the Diablo Immortal and Do you guys not have phones bit.
Well they certainly got the message about the overly colorful/cartoony artstyle of D3 and have gone with a more appopriate art direction and color palette, which is good.

Eh, I like both the D1/2 look and the D3 one....both seem good to me.

Also D3 was less cartoony looking than WOW was/is.

Yes but WoW is totally cartoony, D3 obviously took it's direction from WoW.

I dunno why, but I still like the look of D3 better....maybe it's the setting/areas.
Here's the joke, I'm not even done with Diablo 3 yet. ^_^;

It would great if Blizzard just made a decent singe-player driven Diablo 4 with co-op like the way they did with Diablo 2, for example. But we know there's going to be lots of funny stuff included.
Any news on the DRM? Giving you electric shocks while you play, like in the "Never Say Never Again" James Bond movie? I have noticed this before on some other recent trailers too, but it is funny how in realtime 3D (the first link) they seem to have mastered almost everything else... except people's mouth and teeth. The people otherwise seem quite believable, but when they open their mouth, ewww what is that? What's wrong with their teeth? The breath steam was also a bit odd looking.

In the second trailer (which I presume is prerendered, not realtime rendered, video), the mouth and teeth are fine and fully believable.

Maybe in ten years realtime rendered characters will have believable teeth as well.
LOL! They have made Diablo look like Putin. XD
There was Dobby (elf in Harry Potter) and now this?! :P

Haters gonna hate. ;D

if D4 will have proper offline mode, old D2-like semi-drm (you need launcher to download it, but dont need to run it in order to play the game) and blizzards wont make a disaster with lootboxes, political censorship and other "modern day trends" - as a diehard fan of genre, I will actually buy it
