    Diablo Does anyone care about the story/lore anymore?

    Does anyone care about the story/lore anymore?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 01:50 PM PDT

    I've loved Diablo since I was a little kid, watching my dad play the original on our Windows 98 PC. As I got older, I played 1 and 2 constantly. However, what drew me into the series more than anything else was always its story. I remember spending a good amount of time reading the flavor text included in the manuals, and I loved the whole "Angels and Demons fighting an eternal war over creation" aspect. However, these days I wonder how many people actually pay attention to the lore. Am I part of a dying breed here? I know I'm likely in the minority, but I am curious as to who finds the story as fascinating as I do.

    Do you think Blizzard has learned that writing Diablo in the style of the Power Rangers isn’t what people want?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 09:20 PM PDT

    It got pretty old during the story or Diablo 3 to hear terrible dialogue by antagonists saying things like "YOU'LL NEVER DEFEAT ME!"

    Could there be a more lazy form of writing than the dialogue in D3? It was so basic and childish that it felt like a Saturday morning cartoon.

    I kept waiting for every boss to say "and I would've gotten a way with it too! If it weren't for you pesky Nephalem!"

    Also, can someone tell Blizzard and subtly is a thing?

    If everything is glowing and spiky and bloody and loud, then nothing leaves an impact.

    I think they need to play Dark Souls a few thousand times and take some notes on subtle story telling, world building and what actual darkness and despair look like.

    Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

    When you think about it, there’s no winning the original game.

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 09:16 PM PDT

    The premise of the original game is simple. Delve into the labyrinth, kill Diablo, and save Tristram. That's exactly what I just did, beating the original game for the first time in years. The epilogue is hopeful, talking about your journey into the East to find salvation, and praying you can keep Diablo at bay.

    Only...it's all for nothing. Because the hero didn't even make it out of Khanduras before Diablo took over his will. And then Tristram was destroyed a week later.

    Kinda sad when you think about it. I do wonder though, if this was the original intent when designing Diablo 2. Does anyone remember that very early trailer that has the Wanderer talking about his journey? Saying that his future trials were going to be even more difficult? Maybe we were originally going to pick up where the original left off, and play as our original hero. Would have been interesting to see.

    Removing D2 from my account?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 05:33 PM PDT

    Seems long ago I had registered the D2 and expansion to my Battlenet account. Is it possible for me to de-register it without shutting down my entire Battlenet account?

    Is diablo 3 worth it?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 05:06 PM PDT

    I'm looking for a new game for my friends and I on Xbox one. Diablo looks a lot of fun however, I'm not exactly sure what I'll be getting for 20$. Is this a game where I'll be playing tons of content with one character, or will I be playing the same campaign over and over with multiple characters? I'm up for either if the gameplay is awesome.

    Also, my friends and I enjoy a challenge. I've heard this game can be pretty easy? Please let me know about the challenge of the game.

    Basically, if you could give me your best sales pitch for the game, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Quick question - is there a way to set up a price alert so I know when D3 goes on sale?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 12:47 PM PDT

    My girlfriend now has a computer, and is interested in playing D3 with me. I know it goes on sale for about half price sometimes, so I would like to get it then if possible. Is there a way to get an email or something when it does?

    Can you have multiple saves on Diablo on PS1?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 10:59 AM PDT

    I recently got a copy of Diablo 1 on PS1 and have been playing solo but am about to play with a friend tonight. I noticed theres options for multiple character saves, but theres only one master save for each memory card. So if we use the character saves will we be able to load back to where we were? Or can you really only have one playthrough at a time? Thanks

    Season 21 theme change suggestion

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 11:32 PM PDT

    My proposal to fix the season theme would be that it will only trigger after one kill. So to clear things out: it stil would have the 1:30 timer but only activates eben you kill one enemy. This would fix the 150 Support solo and in Edition would give players a Lot more controll.

    Cube Kanai 21 season

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 11:06 PM PDT

    Hello there. Do we know something about how the cube will work in 21 season in terms of putting any item in it? Most of the strongest builds used 20 season's feature so it's kind of a deal breaker.
