It just occurred to me that Diablo 4 is going to be some 12-year-old kids' Diablo 2. Their first Diablo game that they form magical memories around that they'll cherish for life. And that made me smile.

The votes are in: looks like the most popular class for Diablo 4 Season 1 is the Uninstall Wizard! (Seriously though - apart from sorcs, things aren't as bad as they seem. Wait for maxroll to put out new guides on how to optimize for the new changes.)

It's official: Blizzard is now owned by Microsoft, and Bobby Kotick is all but confirmed to be gone by January. Diablo is now a Microsoft-owned franchise. As is StarCraft. Warcraft. Kind of unbelievable now that it's finally happened.

@Rurikhan @Diablo When a UI element is designed to trick you into clicking it, it's called a "dark pattern." IMO Blizzard needs to add a confirm button or something if they don't want to be accused of using dark patterns. Simple "confirm" pop-up would fix this.

So the original vision for Diablo 3 did not include Diablo at all, until Jay Wilson took over in 2006. Huh. D4 captures the original vision of D3 held by the original D2 devs in many ways - will Diablo not appear in D4 at all? I thought he'd be the surprise boss after Lilith...
