Yes, but the thing is: Starcraft is an upcoming game. We're expected to shift to it after it comes out. 10 million people play WoW. The WoW forum was basically created to keep all the WoW threads in one place.

But Diablo? Diablo's a great game, I lurves it, but it's old. I mean, if they were making a Diablo III I'd be all for it, but as it stands, I think we can do without one.

We've got W3, SCII, WoW. Why not diablo? But diablo's old already, I doubt many people play that anymore. But a newer version of Diablo, I'm up for it!..

Perhaps a section for Diablo "lore, art, story, fan fiction, ect" specifically? And not for the modding/playing of the game itself?

This way, when Diablo 3 is announced (if it does get announced) we already have a template forum ready to go, that we can expand into, that isn't filled with diablo "modding" but is filled with all the necesarry tools to refresh your memory and interest and prepare for its arrival.

There are many that still do play Diablo, though.

My avatar is one out of many I've made for the HiveWorkshop. I'll release them all once we release our Starcraft style :smile:

A diablo section should be easy to make a basic version of, as you can use some diablo II textures for borders and simlar things. That differes from SC2 where most of the content is from eithor blizzards website or are fan made.

However, we will have to wait and see.

Sounds great everyone. A Diablo section sounds VERY likely :) (i've already begun)

Anyway, I've been searching for a better version of the old Diablo image:

Diablo.jpg

In this case it is used as the cover for a PS game and is in very bad "shape" as you can see.

I belive it's the one that shows up when installing Diablo 1. So if someone knows the whereabouts of such image in better quality or has Diablo 1 and can take a screenshot of the setup it would be much appreciated if you would post the image here :p

Great, thank you very much :)

Hehe, I should get ahold of Diablo 1 again :p I wanna play it just for the story which I consider to be freakin' genious.. Although the game Diablo itself could much better when it concerns gameplay. If Diablo 3 finally does come, not only would I expect one hell of continuation of the saga, but also a more varied gameplay so that you don't just walk about killing demons and undeads all the time..

They should get inspiration from Westwood's Nox :grin:

Archian, you might consider using a screen shot of Diablo from one of the Diablo 2 cinematics for your image needs.

With bink/smacker tools and the magos model editor, you can open the diablo mpq's and view the movies from there.

However, on the topic of Diablo 1...that game was so incredible. I still often look back at its dark atmosphere for inspiration on a number of things.

If we get a diablo II section I would probably help moderate it a lot and if nescescary could get my brother to help as well as both of us know a lot about Diablo II (my brother I think knows a bit too much as he can name a large number of uniques off by heart and in Unidentified form). Although I do not have very good characters I will undoughtably help members with diablo II lod online in the ladder.

But without a dought other mods would be made but untill the section is near completion, it is of no worry to anyone who will be the mods for the section.

So true. I still love the game after like 3 years... Sadly I've stopped playing it.
