there isn't much difference to see in dx10 for a game like diablo ( judging from the camera angle ) . I guess dx9 will be enough , as long as the developers know HOW to utilise it.

well then, r we all forgetting windows 7?

dx10 or dx9, as long the graphics looks nice n playable, i'll be completely satisfied with it...

I felt like playing Diablo II again after I saw the website. Gosh ... this sux.

I've install, play, uninstall Diablo II for almost 5 times

legend is back.
a reason to play a pc game. thats it.

p/s i feel like playing diablo2 too..

then who says pc games is dying? lol

Who feel like hamachi-ing d2, lol

*Itch itch* Haih ... I am going to work. Getting old, have to sacrifice gaming time

me! me! have to reinstall d2 and hamachi though >.<

When will Diablo 3 come out???
Cant wait of it...
So I will go play Diablo 1...

Probably on 2010? Wrath of the lich king on this year, SC2 on 2009, and D3 on 2010

starcraft 2 announced for more than a year till now still don't have definitive release date yet

I juz watched the 19mins gameplay... looks good indeed, but i gotta say somehow TQ still looks more gfx intensive, and more detailed interms of textures and almost everything animates like trees which i noticed that D3's trees doesnt animates at all, but that doesn't mean D3 its worse, as it looks of it, D3 juz use different art direction, like pretty color palettes and so on.. basically looks very artistic like WC3...

I noticed now Blizzard like to use its colorful art directions opposed to hi-textures.. its like trademark for Blizzard games as i seen from WC3, SC2 and now D3.

And from the looks of it, if u can run TitanQuest, u have no problem running D3 at all, and imo D3 shld be much lower hardware requirement than TitanQuest, not to mentioned definately much more optimised than TitanQuest.

Action-RPG on Havok tech oredi in TQ (falling down the bridge. stairs and etc) , so nuthin new there, but the cool things abt D3 uses Havok tech its on their environments.. sweetnezz..

To sum up, now D3 looks like they took "God of War" game in implement into their game.. as u can see that u can take life from those dead zombies and the boss walking passing by the background, and the best of all its the way of "storytelling"... it totally engrossing.

Well said, and for those who didnt know WinXP still being support till 2014... lol... not to mention theres quite alot great game developers doesn't even use DX10 like IDsoftware, Valve (which Gabe the game dev condemned DX10.. lol) and now Blizzard

Cheers

The only thing that i would fret is the character model during the in-game cinematic (conversation between Barb and Cain) was kind of too blocky.

That was exactly what i was thinking when i first saw the Barbarian gameplay footage....But then the barbarian got some armour and he looked more like a Diablo barbarian.

hmm i just noticed, i don't see a 'stamina meter' anymore, means we can run non stop?

Maybe they want to make the game pace faster, so din see any stamina meter. But seems physics will be a compulsory in next gen games, which is not graphically but also affecting the gameplay, thumbs up

But it still is in Beta, so thats likely the basic stuff their showing to keep people excited.

yeah true.. the 'utility bar' at the bottom seems quite simple for now but yet managable.

Hmmmz.. do anyone still remembers when WC3 first announced, and the beta show gameplay.. does it looks the same as the final product?... .. *juz curious*.. heh

And i wonder do they still do the "clicking" fest or like TitanQuest "hold on click" to attack

Cheers

from the video it looks like the guy controlling the barb is the same style as D2, which means clicking fest lol.
