Is WoW on consoles something people would actually buy in 2016?

Not being snarky, just curious.

If it's D4 I'd hope it's a complete departure from D3/WoW type art/wack customization/etc.

I just want HD StarCraft and WC remakes with improved Battle Net UI/support.

I would, game is still huge, think a reworked console version could be big, there is a market for it on consoles.

I think the Blizzard template is pretty clear now, cant see them departing from that for D4.

Maybe theyll add some elements from wow and overwatch? ie classes that need to work together to beat bosses and mobs, not just stats and button mashing

You have literally said that PoE is more polished and crapped on D3's combat, which is pretty much universally regarded as superior. Everything you ever say can pretty much be disregarded; you're equally stupid about politics and arpgs.

The Sombra reveal for Overwatch is so obvious even at the start of their ARG that I'm betting they have a second character and a new map as well. Maybe even a roadmap for OW in 2017 (AKA.

The Fisher Price of Game Development would have to get approval from their stock holders before they started production on a full fledged sequel, I'm sure an over priced expansion is much more likely.

I'm not going to try to pretend that D3's skill system is superior; it isn't.

Too bad about that gameplay, tho, bryh.

Also: having to play the same content on multiple different difficulty levels to get to endgame content in 2016 is regressive, shitty game design. Having to do it every ladder/season/whatever should be punishable by death.

Ive put in like 200/250 hours into D3 easy between PC and PS4 and Ive definately come around since launch (as has the game)

The gameplay is just very rewarding, the feel, but Id like to see some skill needed instead of just relying purely on stats. Some mechanics to the fights.

I wouldn't say it's purely about stats, at least the builds I've done anyway have been about using skills in conjunction and building strategies that way

Post by: Human Snorenado on November 02, 2016, 05:13:24 PM
D3 is in a weird place in that the more you play, the higher you progress, the more actual skill is needed, and awareness of certain enemy types, etc. Pushing high greater rift progression is like playing a completely different game than just leveling a character to 70, or even lower greater rift/torment progression. Obviously, it's unfortunate that so much of the ability to push higher greater rifts is tied to what set you're wearing, but that's the game. It's very set oriented. Hell, the "non set" Legacy of Nightmares builds are even MORE restrictive than the set builds, because you need ancient versions of everything, specific rolls, etc.

I really like some things that Path of Exile and especially Grim Dawn do. Where they lose me is asking me to play the same campaign content over multiple different difficulties before I get to endgame shit like maps in PoE. That is the dumbest fucking game design, man.
Title: Re: Blizzcon 2016: Hopes, expectations, dreams and fears
Post by: Phoenix Dark on November 02, 2016, 05:26:27 PM
GGG has said the plan has been to phase out subsequent difficulties. I know they plan on getting rid of Cruel in the next major expansion (3.0). So it'll just be normal and then merciless, which makes sense. I agree the current design is stupid especially given how...inconsequential Cruel is. It just doesn't feel that different from normal, even when I play a ranged character who takes more damage.

I like how they increase difficulty with resistance penalties though. D3 does that too right? I don't remember.

ARPG difficulty is such a weird issue. I remember D3 when the second level of difficulty was considered super hard (before the big nerfs), but iirc nothing was really killing me back then (I just wasn't doing enough dps lmao). I tend to like stuff that outright kills you or heavily damages you. IE if you stand in poison clouds or those laser beams you should die or come close. IF you get hit by a boss' "big attack" you should die or come close. Punish people for being bad. Of course the flip side of this is that ARPGs also give you the ability to simply out-gear content. I'm fine with that since I can't think of a gameplay solution, plus part of the appeal of ARPGs is making a super badass character who can face roll shit.

So, after reading up on it, here are the scenarios (in order of awesomeness) that the Necromancer art leak could mean:

1) New D3 expansion. Probably not likely, but would be the best because it would be coming out the fastest.

2) New classes/maps/content added to D3 via microtransaction. I think this is honestly the least likely. I would pay for all of it, though.

3) D4 announcement. Would probably consist of just some cg footage, would be really short, etc. Game probably wouldn't be released until 2020.

4) It's just some dumb t shirt art or something, gamers whipped themselves into a frothing rage of anticipation for no good goddamn reason for the umpteenth time. lol gamers, so stupid.

Honestly, it's probably gonna be 4 or 3.

Can Blizzard even get away with WoW II in this climate? Seems like the game is losing a lot of steam and pretty bleh right now, although I've heard good things about the recent expansion. Unless they want to move into f2p shit, which is unlikely, it's hard to imagine them laughing an entirely new MMO. WoW is a dying breed that isn't coming back.

They might have turned it around if they can pull their heads out of their asses on a few things.

Also Dufus, the things you hate are pretty much universally praised. Maybe it's not that Blizzard changed so much as that you have uniquely shitty, distinguished mentally-challenged tastes. You really have no ground to talk on it either, considering you played a free beta for Overwatch, hated it, then payed for it. After whining about how shitty it was, you plunked down another 40$ for Legion. Either stop buying this shit or shut the fuck up, but also, even if you keep buying it, still shut the fuck up.

The developer announced during BlizzCon in Anaheim today that a future update will bring some nostalgic additions. This year marks the franchise’s 20th anniversary. To celebrate, an update called The Darkening of Tristram will recreate the original game inside Diablo III. It will even include graphical filters that make the game look pixelated older. The anniversary patch will be available to play on test servers next week.

People gonna bitch (cause people gonna bitch) but for those of us who, you know, actually PLAY D3, this is good news. It tends to be forgotten, but this is all the crap that we've gotten since RoS came out for free:

-Greater Rifts
-Legendary Gems
-New and reworked sets for each class
-Tons of new legendary items that change the way sets and builds function
-Three new areas (Ruins of Sescheron, Greyhollow Isle, Restored royal quarters in Leoric's Manor
-Kanai's fucking Cube

That is basically an expansion's worth of shit, for free. Now they wanna bitch about probably having to spend $15-20 and getting a new class, new zones, new character slots and stash tabs?

People gonna bitch (cause people gonna bitch) but for those of us who, you know, actually PLAY D3, this is good news. It tends to be forgotten, but this is all the crap that we've gotten since RoS came out for free:

-Greater Rifts
-Legendary Gems
-New and reworked sets for each class
-Tons of new legendary items that change the way sets and builds function
-Three new areas (Ruins of Sescheron, Greyhollow Isle, Restored royal quarters in Leoric's Manor
-Kanai's fucking Cube

Kanai's Cube is amazing. I'm not sure I'll play it again much (played it to death and back), although I'm anxious to test the visual filter. Combine that with new content, and it seems fine. Can't shake away the idea of a Diablo 4 though. Too curious about what it would look like!

I mean, even if it were free, those things aren't that exciting. The game hasn't really changed for a year an a half. It's fun, but it's kinda stagnant and they're basically offering more of the same.

Jesus all that stuff announced for WoW is pretty awesome. Of course it's going to be a bit before any of it actually comes out so I'll keep playing Overwatch until it all hits.

I really am Blizzard's bitch :-\

:yeshrug The only difference between us is I enjoy the stuff I buy. You still buy it but just complain about it instead

Except for Hearthstone. I didn't pay anything for it but it's pretty lame so I quit playing very quickly.

not gonna lie, when that mini boss chick kills Cain and then you get to serve revenge...story wise that felt good. Yea it wasn't the biggest climax type event but still.
