Blizzcon 2018 keyart and Blizzcon goodies physical, also Overwatch Demon Hunter Sombra skin
- Thread starter Nirolak
- Start date
I'd like to know what game you are playing because it's not diablo if you think it looks like a mod.
I am about 100x more hype for a potiential McCree short rather than some overpriced Sombra skin.
Welp, guess I'm buying a Blizzcon virtual ticket for the first time. The last 2 Blizzcon exclusive OW skins were not worth getting.
On one hand, absolutely.
On the other hand, I made back $150 on Diablo III by selling garbage the moment the RMAH went live. I profited off the game I enjoyed a fair bit for 3 weeks. That felt nice I admit.
it's $50 now or hundreds later, judging from the blizzcon bastion and winston prices on ebay

On the one hand, it's pretty common for Blizzard to announce games and release them 6-9 months later.
On the other hand, that only tends to be true of expansion packs, whereas the last new full game they announced was 1.5 years (Overwatch), and they said that was historically always their goal for those, with delays causing it to take longer.
Mind, things could have changed, but I'd assume Spring 2020 (or maybe Fall 2020 due to the console transition) and then be positively surprised if it's earlier.
A Diablo 2 Remake would be the worst idea in gaming history.
Imagine trying to appease new fans and old Hardcore D2 fans. Fuck that. A Remaster probably would be ok though....
Diablo 4 please!

It's going to be a remaster just like starcraft was. I would be shocked if it's a remake.
damn it's 65 cdn.They raised the price on the Virtual Ticket =(
Previous years they were $40, but now they're $50 (at least in the states).
Well, diablo is still a Prime and the Keyart diablo looks like D2 while the streetmarket figurine looks like D1 diablo
His body is based off of who he is manifesting through at that time. As of the end of vanilla D3 he is no longer us using anyone since we killed the version of him that was in Leah. Has nothing to do with him being in the prime evil form or not.
They've reached $50 now? Dayum.
Well, the opening ceremony is free and that's usually enough for me nowadays. Though, in case there will be D4 and panels for it... there's still youtube uploads and the likes in the following days. Eh.

Damn it, more paid OW stuff, going back on the model they promised us.
The Lucio emote tied to the OWL pass
The All Star Skins, except you didn't get tokens while watching said all star games
Now instead of the forgettable Blizcon skins from the last years, it's good enough to want
All of this is much more worthy of criticism than what Blizzard gets constantly for the standard loot boxes in the game.
Soon enough they'll put out something I really want tied to a purchase I can't make, time limited, and the knowledge that I don't have it will bring me down every time I play the game, until I quit.

Can't wait for that new Diablo mobile title!
Only half kidding. Though I'd totally go for some portable Diablo if done right
Are we mad about loot boxes? Or are we mad about a one time payment to get a skin (and other things)?
Pretty sure D3 Diablo had features from the other Evils as well, being the Prime Evil and all.
"†The in-game items for Overwatch, StarCraft II, and StarCraft: Remastered will also be available separately in 2019—further details will be announced at a later date."

I think its funny people are getting mad about paying $50 for a special event skin. You aren't paying $50 for the skin, you're paying to see all the blizzcon events. I went the last two years and spent multitudes more money than $50 bucks. Am I mad that people that only paid $40 got the same stuff we did? No.
On another note, I'm not going this year and frankly think the virtual ticket might be the way to go since you can easily switch between events. I always missed out on a good event or two.

I can only speak for Overwatch since it's the only Blizzard game I play since their ETA phase. But the last two years their Blizzcon skins were just recolors, because they knew that holding cool skins hostage to outside events that require real money was a bad move. Even the special HotS skins eventually were put in the game as normal skins.
But now they've walled content behind real money. They're doing it since their OWL stuff was probably profitable. If they've been doing it to other games for years, then it's always been scummy. I just didn't know about it since I don't play those games.
Edit: apparently they said it's going to be available in the game in the future. So that's fine ,and I hope they do it to the other content.
He had weird mouth shoulders, but that was really about it.
But I was referring to his female/feminine form versus his bulky from. It's based on who hes possessing, basically. It wasn't because he was the prime evil, it was because he was manifesting through Leah.
How often do they do this? The previous BizzCon Epic skins in Overwatch, for example, were not made available after the show concluded.
His slim figure was from Leah, yes but as being the Prime evil he got features of the other Evils in cosideration into his design too.
Is also curious Blizz didnt choose his latest incarnation (fem Diablo) as representative of Diablo series and previously used Bulky diablo as representative in HOTS but this one is the slim Diablo from D1 or D2
Right, and we were talking about his slim figure, not the rest of the design. So not sure what your point was?
My dream come true?
A Diablo 2 Remake (yes, remake) with additional content?
And maybe even a Switch version for it?
I know I'm setting up the ground for disappointment...
D2 is one of the few old games that I keep playing constantly... (I just killed Hell Baal on a newly made Single Player Paladin just yesterday)
But it has a problem, compared to newer games (such as Diablo 3), there's not much content in it. What's keeping me going back to it is experimenting new builds and the trill of finding new items.
New game modes in the likeness of D3, new areas and maybe even new classes/skill tress/builds on top of the old ones would make a D2 Remake a dream come true.
