Diablo III Hands-On - "Familiarity is a good thing"

Gothic Girl | October 11, 2008 | Reviews | PC Blizzcon 2008 
Kotaku recently got their hands on a demo of the upcoming Diablo III and any worries they previously had about the game soon vanished. For Diablo fans worried about the changes that seem to be present in the third installment, you can put you mind at ease. It still feels like Diablo.

Discuss in the Diablo III forum
When I first saw Diablo III in action, my initial thought was, "How is this different?" Now, having played the game I realize that it isn't all that different, and it doesn't really have to be. It's got upgraded graphics, a new leveling system, and some new classes, but this is still Diablo, and that has never been a bad thing. If it was the sort of game we got a new installment of every year than it would certainly be less impressive, but with it being seven years since we've entered this world, familiarity is definitely a good thing.

      Not necessarily. Blizzard did the same thing with SC2. It was announced at WWI and made playable at the following BlizzCon.

      And yet, still no release date for SC2.
