The Diablo 3 Year in Review: January 2009

Diablo 3 was announced in June 2008, just about nineteen months ago. The game, or at least our knowledge of it, has come a long way since then, and with 2009 winding down, it's only right to look back over the past year+, and review how far we've come. (Let's try not to think too much of just how far we have yet to go.)

2009 was another year with changes, fun stuff with the community and other things. Slowly we inch closer to them finishing up this amazing looking game!

Leord5591d ago

It's felt really slow, but looking at it like this is a good thing for perspective. January is traditionally quite slow anyway, any year.

Cogo5591d ago

Perhaps 2009 was less slow than other Januaries then :)

Holyknight30005591d ago

and the next thing we will see is carebears /stare !

Dorjan5591d ago

Is that a unicorn pooing a rainbow!?

Cogo5591d ago

Yeah, it just says it all about that whole "Diablo 3 Art Controversy" :)

Recka5591d ago

Looks great :D this game will be so awesome come release ^_^

Leord5591d ago

Yeah, in like 2012 or something...

Holyknight30005591d ago

Hopefully it will come out before the end of the world "looks at the 2012 movie reference" lol

Cogo5591d ago

Haha, Diablo will arrive in 2012, and bring an end to the world :)

the sun was not superheating the earth, it was Big Red himself!

thetamer5591d ago

It won't be released until 2011, in February, and I'm saying the 31st. That's how much faith I have...!

Diablo 4 and Diablo 3 teams change structure in an attempt to release less buggy seasons

Via Diablo’s global director of community Adam Fletcher, Blizzard is introducing new measures to improve the quality of season launches in the future. Across both Diablo 4 and the aging Diablo 3, fans of Blizzard’s games should all benefit.

If they didn't let the cellphone guy touch the 3rd one in first place, they wouldn't have to dance around like clowns trying to make money.

We've been asking for less "boring" seasons... "boring"... not "buggy"... same ol' rehashed content just a different color is not working.

Cyberpunk and No Man's Sky have to be up there. We're lucky and cursed, equally, to have games that can be updated now. For folks old enough to remember the Sega/SNES into PS1 and even 2 eras, if a game came out that was half baked (*cough*Angel of Darkness*cough*) that was it, no redemption. At the same time, having the option for updates shouldn't be an excuse for half assing games.

thorstein452d ago

I remember when the Nintendo Seal of Approval meant something.

All those games had to release without bugs.

Comebacks shouldnt be a thing in videogames. Just saying.

Diablo III - Still a Huge Draw in the Face of Diablo IV

Diablo III still works on modern PlayStation and Xbox consoles, and remains hugely playable a decade after initial release.

Palitera761d ago

Are you comparing a continuously improved 10+ years old masterpiece with the... beta of an unreleased game?

kevco33760d ago

Heh, yeah. There's no comparison in here! Its a commentary on how III is still very playable over a decade later.
