    Blizzard: We're Still a PC Developer First, We've Just Communicated It Poorly

    Would you play the next Diablo if it was MMO-like?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 11:16 AM PDT

    Theres zero pre-hype/teasers this year AND blizz is suddenly spending a lot of PR time preventing shitstorms from PC users telling they still love us.

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 10:04 AM PDT

    ...aka we're getting jack shit this year.

    2019 blizzcon prediction

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 04:43 PM PDT

    Imagine this... all the fans at blizzcon and Kyles around the world streaming it. Ecstatic because Blizzard knows they f***ed up announcing Diablo Immortal with no news of a Diablo PC release, and the only way to repair their image is to, well, give us info on Diablo 4.

    Epic music queues, curtains open, screen lights up, and Decard Cain's voice slowly begins: "Througout the years, mankind has known that true freedom, an escape from from hell, can only be achieved once the demons have been vanquised!" Announcer: "Diablo Immortal is now live for the world. Thank you and good night"

    Oh, the Kyles would not go quietly into the night...

    What are the odds of a corny mobile phone joke this year at blizzcon?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 08:34 AM PDT

    Do you think it will happen from Blizzard directly?

    [D3, Switch, EU] "Requires a grammatical form from the caller" in Kanai's Cube. Anyone got an idea what that is for?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 07:09 AM PDT

    I had this recipe appear in Kanai's cube, never seen that. Google only spits out blizzard forum threads from years ago, mentioning cheated items. I know for a fact that I didn't cheat (why would I lol). Anyone got an idea?

    Combos that should work (and might boost singleplayer)

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 09:57 AM PDT

    • Overwhelming Desire with other charm effects like Enchantress' Charm and Skull of Resonance - some LoN/LoD Barb builds might be able to benefit from the 35% damage amp.

    • Hellfire ring and Leoric's Signet xp boost on followers.

    • Maloth's Focus + Rachel's ring of Larceny should boost your movement speed also if put on an Enchantress - might be useful for speedfarming.

    • Ancients summoned by Remorseless should benefit from your runes + Fury of the Ancients - I know this won't be enough to make Remorseless useful but it's super strange to have 6 Ancients...and might make a fun LoD-HotA/CotA build.

    • Legendary gems on followers - Iceblink, Toxin gem and maybe even Gem of Ease - a small change, but substantional for singleplayer.

    • Bul Katho's Wedding Band should drain life to you also, if put on a follower.

    • (The most daring one) Flavor of Time on followers - I come from the standpoint of view of someone who's not interested in the Leaderboards, so I can't say if it will shift anything there.

    Basically th whole post was "make the followers useful", though I have no ideas for the Scoundrel...that guy needs a total rework.

    It says to use the Nemesis bracers but wouldn't sanguine vambraces be a better fit?

    Do you think the next PC Diablo game (whatever it is) would benefit from having ray tracing available?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 12:10 PM PDT

    Just a general thought that occurred to me, seeing as I think the increased realism of ray tracing could help with the atmosphere of the game. Obviously it would come with trade offs, so do you guys think it would be worth it for them to put it in?

    Little Gem I Found While Watching an Interview with Diablo Creator David Brevik

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 12:12 AM PDT

    The whole video is really interesting but the gem that stuck out to me was when David describes the first time he hit a monster with the warrior while making Diablo 1. Video link at correct time below.

    You can jump back a few minutes to catch the context but essentially the original Diablo was going to be turn-based with the player choosing to either walk a certain amount of tiles or an attack for their turn. Then there was a push to change the game to be an action-RPG played in real time. After they voted in this change David spent the night coding it into the game - and here's what happened next:

    Where should I be focusing on improvement for my build?

    Posted: 02 Oct 2019 11:01 PM PDT

    I'm currently running a LoD DoD WD in progress (only 3 ancients, link: https://www.d3planner.com/880702141 ) and am a little confused as to where to put my emphasis to progress further. Currently the highest gr I can complete is a 90-91 or a 92 with some fishing. Other than just farming for more ancients, what should I focus on to get the most improvement for my time? I've been trying to get my LoD to as high a level as possible (as you can probably tell from the difference in gem levels) but due to the fact that I can't progress much higher than a gr 90 consistently, that's becoming fairly inefficient. Sorry for the rambling, but any input or suggestions would be appreciated.

    On a side note, if anyone has tips for how to survive the gr guardians better, those would be greatly appreciated as well because I find that if I die to them once, it's near impossible to get back on my feet before they kill me again.

    Would a Diablo 2 remake technically work with a modern game engine?

    Posted: 03 Oct 2019 03:14 AM PDT

    Does anyone else think that a remake wouldn't capture the original feel because of the FPS cap of the original game?

    If you were heavy into PvP (and most of PvE) at end-game, everything revolved around breaking and locking hit recovery, cast and attack rates of the engine.

    Could this be replicated somehow with modern game engines?
