I was going to be blogging about this last week when I found out about it, but then the Fleshbot guest editor spot and the Feminist Porn Awards nominations and St. Patrick’s Day blogs got out of control, so I had to push back my geekdom to today. No harm, no foul! ;)
I’ve spoken before about my love of Diablo, and Diablo 3 is launching on May 15th. Don’t bother trying to talk to me that day, because I will be otherwise disposed. Maybe I’ll let Mike snap a few pictures of me in action, if you’re lucky. And maybe I’ll tweet from my phone while I take bathroom breaks… Just maybe.
It’s been a long time coming, but that’s kind of fun in a way, even if it’s also really frustrating. There’s nothing better than getting into the last leg of waiting for a game (or movie or book…) and now there’s less than 2 months to go. I’m not saying they’ll fly by, but I’ve got butterflies in my stomach thinking of the final few days. Yay!
Will any of you be playing?
Damn right I’ll be playing. Got my digital copy downloaded already. Not sure if I’ll be getting the collector’s edition, but I’ll get 4 free months of WoW if I do.
Lol. The similarity in our comment was unintentional. Only read your comment, after I made mine.
Haha, I didn’t see it until you mentioned it.
Awesome! You certainly work fast!
Damn right I’ll be playing! Can’t wait!
Awesome!
Woo! I chose my stage name way back when I played Diablo in 1996 and I wanted a a kick ass character name to help me in the game (I was terrified of my character’s shadow lol). Daiblo 2 was even more terrifying. Not sure if I could handle 3.
I’m sure you could! It’s so cool to know the origin of your name is rooted in something so close to my heart.
Does any class in particular strike your fancy, Camille? Demon Hunter looks fun to me with the traps and ranged combat style, plus two resource pools to make use of. Love the armor designs for it, too. It seems to be a combination of the rogue from 1 and assassin from 2.
I’m not sure yet. Demon Hunter does look fun.
Who will not ? ^^. I hope it will at lesat as good as Diablo II and Diablo II LOD.
I hope so too!
I should just about be done playing mass effect 3 for the gazillionth time when opening day rolls around.
and I’ll definitely be playing demon hunter.
Awesome!
Been playing the beta for a month or so now. It is such a fun hack and slash game, I look forward to the hardcore in a month.
I can’t wait! It sounds amazing!
Awesome, I will have it too, let me know if you need another multiplayer companion!
I may very well end up going that route.
