I really really liked Diablo 2. Good news this, so long as they keep it old skool.

Have to admit watching the vid made me reinstall D2, will have to dust off my old chars. Maybe my amazon will finally get through nightmare mode. I doubt it though, I'll be bored again within a couple of hours.

heh my mate has now convinced me to finally complete D1, so I'm on it right now *sigh*
Hopefully what we'll have is shinier Diablo 2, as its a far superior rpg than Warcraft. Warcraft is an rts dammit!

I just watched the gameplay at gamespot. Its the same shit all over again. I guess im just too old for 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1 monster dead, monies woohooo.
By comparing it to recently released RPGs this looks like a giant leap back instead of forward. Its friggin grind times 3. bullshit.

I guess the only reason to play D3 is to see Tyreal again. For me, its one of the best designed NPCs in the video game industry.

indeed, as i say the story is what keeps me coming to Diablo, so it better be good. Still there is something almost refreshing about the simplicity of it; whilst I prefer a good, 'complicated' rpg, sometimes a nice arpg is all I need to relax.

lol. I don't even consider Diablo to be an RPG, to be honest. It's a hack and slasher. I think it's a valid genre of games, but to lump it in with RPGs is a bit short-sighted. That's like calling Quake 3 an RPG.

ditto, Diablo is not an rpg, at best it is an aRPG. It bugs me when things like this get categorised wrongly then compared with the best of the best from that category. It's like comparing Oblivion to Halo simply because you can go into first person in Obliv 
As an rpg, Diablo is poor. As an arpg, it is pretty much at the top.
