I'd love to see a Starcraft 2. The original Starcraft was a great chess-like game that really drew you in. I'd love to see another one like it.

i've got 1 lvl40 char, 2 lvl30, 1 lvl25.
i don't game that much.

it's just that i found myself repeating the same procedure, repeating the same 1on1 fights all over again.
... and the item rewards are boring. i like fancy stuff with +300% damage or lightning bolts that are toasing like 20 enemies at the same time coming out of my ass.
compare that to +11 agility and +1 crit chance, lol.

[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

All classes are a bit repetetive, its just the nature of MMOs..

Make Toon
Grab Quests
Grind X mob Return Y Item to Z NPC
Grind X Mob 30 Times
Take X to Y
Return to Questgiver

Items are the same way.. my roommate and i spent 5 or 6 hours grinding giants for some pattern that never dropped.. prolly end up doing it again in a day or so..

*shrug

Honestly, i like my mage.. Hunter looks fun (roommate has a 57 hunter), shaman is boring (got one to almost 20 i think, roommate has a 60), He likes his warlock, i "kinda" like my rogue, Warrior "CAN" be fun, but your fucking gimped until you get good gear.. Priests, welcome to healbot world..

This is what I hate about most medieval-oriented MMOs. They are craft- or gear-dependant for their melee classes, and I fucking HATE having to hastle with stupid crafters in town or camping mob drops for stuff. This is why I like City of Heroes; there's no gear, just enhancements that you can put in your powers, all of which are buyable from stores in towns and are universal (a Damage Enhancement is the same for every class in the game).

I've found it's the only MMO I have stuck with for more than a few months. I dropped DAoC pretty quick, quit WoW before beta ended, Horizons was a joke... CoH I've been with since it was in beta 1.5 years ago.

lol... blizzard is hilarious.
I'm not sure why we would announce a new game or anything important on the Battle.net website, a website dedicated to the multiplayer gaming service our games use.

Yeah... Just like when they announced starcraft: ghost via battle.net...

blizard uis probably the only company that doesnt focus on graphics but actual gameplay, with lower system requierments and games that are almost always best sellers. Not to mention they actualy update their games.

Diablo=minesweeper

BTW, Warcraft3 was the erogenous zones of every land dwelling mammal in the western hemisphere. Only RTS I really liked (wasn't much of a fan of starcraft)

CoH owns... the only drawbacks are that the Euro servers are too empty (the game didn't get much publicity here) and that it's far too addictive. I eventually had to cancel my subscription because i felt the whole thing had a bad effect on me, heheh.
