Jay Wilson "**** that loser" @ David Brevik

[BloodOmen]

gave paragon xp a go and tbh it was boring as fuck, i'd rather swallow a string of razorblades pull them out of my arse and floss myself to death than grind more paragon xp.

Someone needs to keep the thing together and think of all features against all other.

Why?

Just take a load of devs and give them a general idea and see where it lands instead.

Aye played til Plvl 6 or 7, given up again now. I will try PvP when its out but the single player game is tedious beyond words.

Sounds nice, but look at the indie scene. The percentage of stuff in there isn't that great and majority of that is done without design

There are some exceptions ofcourse, but blah di blah di.

 

[Ctuchik]

True, but the same can be said about most AAA title as well though...

 

[old.Tohtori]

Fair point, some of that is contributed by either graphic guys, or coders designing the game and then coding/doing graphics themselves. Design is actually a full day job and a lot more goes into it then one might think.

Lol @ 1.05 changes

• "The goal of the system is to allow players set a monster power level, and the higher they set the level the bigger the bonuses they'll get to magic find, experience and loot drops -- but the harder the game will be."
• Monster Power will work in all difficulties, including Normal.
• "At level 60 players can find various objects to put together a device that will allow them to fight more powerful bosses hidden throughout the game,"
• PvP will be ready when it's ready. They want to make it the best they can. "the original hope was this year, but they're focused on making its quality up to their standards."

I'll go through these one by one and give my thoughts on them thus far
"Monster Power" This has blatantly been robbed from late Diablo II / MedianXL / various other Diablo II mods ('/players X' command is essentially the same thing) - good job Jay Wilson for robbing other peoples work, yet again.
"At level 60 players can find various objects to put together a device that will allow them to fight more powerful bosses hidden throughout the game" - sounds like a hybrid version of the uber bosses from Diablo II
Quite a fail patch thus far :l

If the features are good, i don't care if they've been "stolen" or not. Like there's originality in games

 

[BloodOmen]

Oh don't get me wrong, if they're good then fine.. I just think its kind of sad how a man who bad mouths people responsible for the creation of Diablo can keep using old ideas as his own work which is clearly what he keeps doing.

 

[old.Tohtori]

True, but you have to spin it that way, can't really come up and say "Hey guys, we saw this thing in portal and thought it'd be excellent in our game so we stole it"

 

[Ctuchik]

Is he claiming it was his ideas BloodOmen? I think you're just looking for stuff to complain about now tbh.

I mean, name the game that doesn't take ideas from other games without saying anything about it.

Like, when did Blizzard EVER give credit to another games mechanic for something they took and used in WoW?

That said, Wilson is still an arrogant little twerp.

Lol, its Jay Wilson.. Diablo III is his love child and virtually every idea that comes out of his overpaid gob will be passed off as his own work you know I'm right, even if the guy doesn't admit it. After his attitude towards people you just know he's an angry little man that likes having his own way and throws his toys out of the pram when someone criticizes Diablo III - be it constructive or none constructive.

 

[pikeh]

They need runewords now. Please. Socketed white items etc. Theres nothing bad with that system.

 

[Lethul]

I quite like Diablo 3 now again Not playing alone but playing with friends I think it is fine. People complain a lot but really, is there that much _less_ to do than Diablo 2?

Sooo, anyone have a high dps 1h weapon with around 800-900 LOH since you don't play anymore?
