The Diablo 3 Year in Review: February 2009

Diablo IncGamers' 2009 year in review continues, as they reflect upon how far Diablo 3 has come since that fateful day back in mid-2008 (And try not to dwell on just how far it has yet to go.) February brought rip-offs, monsters and interviews, all eagerly received by fans who wanted more.

Very interesting to see how far the game has come :)

[Holyknight3000]

it was an interesting year to say the least.

[Cogo]

Yeah, the unburied is one...

Not many updates since Diablo 3 was announced, but there's been some quality stuff that surely keeps the hype up.

[Holyknight3000]

Look at it this way, if blizzard doesn't make something the fan base makes some nice fan creations to pass the time!

[Redrudy]

We will get the 5th character this year and probably some strong rumours of beta towards the end.

[Holyknight3000]

my gut does say the 5th class will be a variant of the Diablo I Rouge

One thing that bothers me greatly about D3 is the heavy influences it's getting from WoW. It's starting to become WoW but in a top down view. I just hope they dont mess up and just make another WoW instead of a Diablo game.

Barbs fury points (instead of mana) is unlimited? So you can spam it as much as you want? But the less you have the less damage.

The even said it on the Blizzcon. Watch all 4 about D3.

@Redrudy

Lower your voice!

We don't even have any info at all on the Starcraft 2 beta yet. D3 is on the farthest point of the horizon, almost unveiwable.

February. Just under a year ago...

Well, one can;t deny the progress!

[Leord]

True. I'm not bothered about hype myself. More info is all I want...

[moondragon]

Very good february coverage indeed, those reviews are perfect for us who is not up to date with the game.

[EpicSheep]

Yeah I'm stoked for D3, the monk at Blizzcon was awesome with his rapidfire kickass punches:D

[Dorjan]

A lot has happened indeed!

[Fyzzu]

Good stuff. I do love the implication that fans eagerly received the rip-offs, though :p

[Maticus]

It brought rainbows, don't forget the rainbows!

[Redrudy]

The rainbows are part of the folklore now.

[Solidus187-SCMilk]
