- Thread starter Square Triangle
- Start date
Come on, everyone knows Kotick has no friends.
Would be more interested for a portable device, even though diablo 3 is mediocre anyway.Resurrecting this thread for tonight's news.
You can all kiss my feet after mocking me.
Not for Vita, but home consoles

bitch I'm taking calls.
Real talk, though: op your avatar is disgusting and you moved goalposts from 'vita/ipad' to home consoles. So even if they announce D3 for PS4 you deserve little praise.

He bumped a thread for people to "eat Crow" even though he admits the original rumor was garbage.

Is that a Wii-mote in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Holy shit at the ignorance and hyperbole. It has come to the point that I'm laughing out loud at posts like these

Maybe it will be just via Gaikai - a streamable exclusive PC game on the PS4.

So is Square Triangle saying it's not for vita anymore and for home consoles like it's been heavily rumored?

Call it whatever you want. I was there to witness it. It was just a mess of stuff not working, constant lag and servers down. Excuses and more fails. Add to that, a short campaign and gaming experience that falls flat in comparison with the second game. I could go on, but I'll stay there. I am simply not a fan of Blizzard anymore.

Man, I don't want to see one of the few Tigers and Vita fans around get banned. We're a rare breed

D3 was a good game at release and with all of the post-release support, has become a great game. Not a perfect game-not even close-but if you want action and loot (in that order), the game is fabulous.
The problem with consoles is that core thing that actually makes Diablo 3 good-the super fluid combat against a huge number of enemies done at a frenetic pace-(gotta go fast-need that gold/hour or xp/hour to stay high!) would totally not work on the Vita's screen, wonderful as it is. D3 on the Vita would have the same issues that Wipeout 2048 did with it's last few tracks, as the screen's size/resolution and the game's framerate couldn't keep up with the rate of information needed to be returned to the player.
That's nothing to say of the huge drop-off in precision and responsiveness that would happen on the controls moving from M&K to gamepads or the Vita's controls.
edit: ipad? LOL. Enjoy your paragon level grind at 500k XP/hour, touch controls would gut the game's responsive play completely.

This is interesting, what's with the image Slime linked?
Well, it's funny, that's what it is.
PocketStation was a PS1 accessory that never came to the States. It was just like a Dreamcast VMU and could play tiny minigames on a little LCD screen.

D3 on iOS would be amazing.

Well, that wouldn't be any fun now would it?
He has the right to brag, I don't think anyone thought it would happen.

It has not been confirmed for Xbox? Or are you being sarcastic in someway?
During the Diablo 3 development, you got the feeling that the game was being considerably dumbed down.
Skill trees essentially gone (get a perk at certain levels), no attributes, less skills overall, fixed amount of usable abilities, and more.
Probably because they were looking for an easy way into the console market.
