But, we still keep jumping in when new seasons start don't we? Only to be let down once again by lacklustre ideas.

Jay Wilson is finally leaving Blizzard.
But he did manage to accomplish something incredible.
He killed Diablo franchise.
Maybe with D4, they can go back to its true roots.

800-1000 hours > D3 is dead man.
Dude, what the hell. You spent a thousand hours in a game that you don't even like?
Anyway, i still play every season for a few days, suffices to say i've got my money's worth, and while i dislike wow, hearthstone and overwatch, i still think blizz at least knows how to support their games for years on end

I wish I hated a game so much that I spent 1000 hours in it.
A bit less than a year ago, Diablo 3 reached 30m copies sold. Making it the 10th best-selling game of all time. The expansion on its own sold almost 3m copies in its first week.
So yeah, that game is dead man. RIP Diablo franchise. The next one is probably only gonna sell 10m copies and we'll play it for a meager 200 hours.

jay wilson was the best thing that happened to d3, rmah owned.
That idiot though.. what's his face, josh mosquito, fuck that loser. No reason to play d3 anymore, game dead for ages nao 
The rush from those hundreds of dollar flips .. ah.. good thing i dont live in vegas, i'd prolly be broke by now and with huge debts.
Inb4 game is much better now. Oh yeah, clearly, crazy paragon lvls shitting on gear itself, same with gems, no way to catchup to nolifers on the ladders anymore cuz stats stats and more stats (and no seasons dont count), botters and my personal favorite, the competition. The competition with hacks (aka maphacks and whatnot) and Blizz doing fuckall about it. Did i forget to mention how solo players (the ones that didn't want to get carried by 4mans and get way higher gems / paragonlvls / gear ) are at such a huge disadvantage when competing on their own actual ladders (you know, solo not ppl geared from 4p ladders "competing" with soloers).
Yeah much better game

At least there are now better arpgs to play instead, better the casuals stick to derplo 3 rather than demanding dumb down on other franchises.

Personal preference for me, Diablo 3 has no where near the depth of any of the alternatives. They wanted to clone poe's skill system in dev but couldnt make it work so juat gave you all skills for nothing instead.
Some think its more 'atmospheric' because they spent more money and time perfecting graphics and animations, Poe'artstyle is much more appealing to me, and it has much better randomization. Fanboys think sinking 3000's hours on paragon levels negates the 1 stat, have all skills no choices gameplay.
Still im glad theres a popular game for gamers that are into that, less chance of features/fun being removed from POE or its sequels.

Torment 13 huh? Wonder how far they'll end up taking that?

I mean if Rifts can infinitely scale, I don't see why Torment can't. Power creep is a reality that cannot be avoided at this point, might as well make every mode infinitely scaled.

Nothing is more exciting than simply scaling up the numbers instead of releasing new content....
Hint: Sarcasm.

Blizzard Hiring Director for Unannounced Diablo Project
Go to hell, and get paid for the privilege.
| Quote: | lizzard has begun advertising for a game director to "lead the Diablo series into the future".
Reported by BlizzPro, Blizzard's Irvine studio career page added the job yesterday, listing it as "Game Director, Unannounced Project - Diablo".
Blizzard has posted several previous vacancies for the same project, but it was unclear whether that might be a new game, DLC or otherwise. However, the latest listing's call for the applicant to "lead the Diablo series into the future" appears to indicate the former.
Diablo 3 director, Jay Wilson left Blizzard and the games industry earlier this month, perhaps prompting the search for new blood. |

Hopefully Diablo 4 at release will be more like Diablo 2 again.
