Re: D3 is NOT like WoW

The feel is more GW than WoW to me, except for the horrible shoulder pads when the barb gets a set of armour.

Re: D3 is NOT like WoW

That is a good point, I knew WoW was cartoony but didn't realise how cartoony. Hmmm ... I intially thought that D3 looked somewhat WoW like, I think I have to agree with the OP now.

Re: D3 is NOT like WoW

Hahaha WoW is so lame.

When I thought about it, it was the buggiest game I've ever been playing.

Not like by a bit, it's like buggier by 500% then the second.

And bosses fight just look retarded, like 40 small things smashing that big thing that gives a blow once in a while, so you just have to heal the main tank and AoE all of the other "surprises". WoW is so lame.

Re: D3 is NOT like WoW

Photoshop? WoW bugged?

First off, both images are real and untouched. Second, for a game the size of WoW, and accomplishing the technical feats that it does, it runs very smooth as of patch 2.4.3.

To address the original issue, who cares if D3 borrows from WoW? I'm glad it has borrowed ideas such as 1 item-per-slot, a revamped upper-right hand minimap, action-bar at the bottom, etc... I pose the question, why should Blizzard not borrow from it's own property that has nearly 13 million subscribers?

On the contrary, I can only hope that D3 is just as big of a success!

Re: D3 is NOT like WoW

Yeah. All people who kinda paid attention to how WoW actually looks like and then looked at D3 kinda knew that. The most Warcrafty thing in the D3 trailer were the shoulder pads and the green tone of the dungeon. That's it.
