As much as I love the Diablo series, it's really got to suck to be apart of a game development company and be forced to churn out only one product. I'm sure the fine folks at Blizzard North are capable of much more then just re-hashing another Diablo.

There is no game that could be developed that would be cooler than Diablo 3, please end yourself.

get your heads out of your asses... since Broodwars (some would argue starcraft) blizzard hasn't produced a quality game. Yes Diablo 2 was a blast to play, but we all know that it was flawed online and really was only fun because it was the same community that you played SC or WC with.

Look at WoW.. it just has mass appeal because EVERYONE can be 60 in a short amount of time. The original pvp message was lost somewhere. CTF in an MMO .. wtf?

Look at WC3... fun game.. sort of. More like level your heros and then attack. No real strat there.

BW started to unbalance SC a bit. Although they tried very hard to fix it.

Of course we also know Blizzard online games are full of holes and get exploited faster then windowsME browsing porn.

So yeah. Just wait for Sigil or Turbine to release a game that might be worth playing. If blizzard does make a new game I have one bit of advice.

I WANT PLOT AND CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT GOD DAMN IT!

I'm so sick of all these lifeless games people churn out these days.
