Free for everyone or with another expansion pack? Either way is fine I guess, but the first would be the obvious best.
[QUOTE=Rocâ„¢;51308253]Free for everyone or with another expansion pack? Either way is fine I guess, but the first would be the obvious best.[/QUOTE] it's paid dlc.
Meh, I hoped for a new expansion pack to add more new content, like RoS did before. Most recent seasons were quite boring to play, I even skipped last one since it didn't bring anything new at all. I thought that was because they were focusing on developing new expansion, but turns out it wasn't case at all.
This is only for the PC/PS4/XB1 versions isn't it? I'm one of those poor souls who's playing RoS on PS3.

Life-support content.
[QUOTE=Water-Marine;51308543]Life-support content.[/QUOTE] as much as i have wanted necromancer back in diablo, I am quite saddened that there seems to be no more content added with him.
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;51308305]it's paid dlc.[/QUOTE] blah oh well, I'll get it anyway [editline]4th November 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Solo Wing;51308438]This is only for the PC/PS4/XB1 versions isn't it?

[QUOTE=Naught;51308459]might not even be for consoles in general[/QUOTE] I doubt it, the console version is favored by a lot of people. Actually I would even say it's superior to the pc version of D3.
Shit voice acting. Sounds forced.
[QUOTE=Toyhobo;51308574]as much as i have wanted necromancer back in diablo, I am quite saddened that there seems to be no more content added with him.[/QUOTE] there will be other "new" content as well [QUOTE]Blizzard announced that the original Diablo is being recreated in Diablo 3. The update, which will be a free event, will feature almost everything you love about that great old game, from 16 levels and four main bosses to a special graphics filter that will make the graphics "pixelated and grainy," and even character movement that's locked to eight directions.[/QUOTE] [URL="http://www.pcgamer.com/blizzard-is-recreating-diablo-1-in-diablo-3-and-the-necromancer-is-coming-too/"]http://www.pcgamer.com/blizzard-is-recreating-diablo-1-in-diablo-3-and-the-necromancer-is-coming-too/[/URL]
is this game still online drm
[QUOTE=theevilldeadII;51308901]is this game still online drm[/QUOTE] Yep. I'd like this game, path of exile, and other online only games following such a model to eventually have offline and LAN along with mod-support for post-development.
The only class i played in Diablo 2 is finally back! I honestly could not care less what else is added because i am a filthy slut who only plays necromancers in all things :v:

[QUOTE=Lyonidis;51308988]Minion classes are best classes[/QUOTE] Yep i mostly play Necromancer if available but if there not i will pick the next best minion class, With the exception of the Witch Doctor who just felt like Diet Necromancer to me and was boring to play.
[QUOTE=Naught;51308459]might not even be for consoles in general[/QUOTE] that would suck, the PS4 version is fun as fuck
[QUOTE=vamper;51309027]Yep i mostly play Necromancer if available but if there not i will pick the next best minion class, With the exception of the Witch Doctor who just felt like Diet Necromancer to me and was boring to play.[/QUOTE] I just couldn't get far into Diablo 3 on the PS4 with the witch doctor. Or, any class for that matter. Necromancer might actually have me play through the entire game. Getting the original diablo campaign would be a neat bonus. Necromancer in GW2 and Warlock in WoW were my choices at first, and then I learned that they're both bad because pet AI sucks in GW2 and warlock was completely gutted in general. Games that do minion classes right end up with me playing them for hours on end. Too bad they're few and far between.

Necromancer in Guild Wars 2 I actually liked but Guild Wars 2 felt hollow and mostly about fashion and events. Best necromancer for me is the Diablo 2 necromancer and its the reason I got into minion classes to begin with.
[QUOTE=Mastermind of42;51308710]Shit voice acting. Sounds forced.[/QUOTE] You can say that about every single blizzard game recently released.
[video=youtube;b-RpwEw0AsI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-RpwEw0AsI[/video] Yeah I gotta say I like D2 Necromancer's voice a bit more, it has a nice charm to it. The new one just sounds little too edgy and cartoony.
It took them five years to add the nercomancer, although i do wonder how much of this nercomancer will be a nercomancer? as the witch doctor was a major let down.
I loved the D2 Necromancer but he was always on the butt end of balancing. I hope this time you can make a massive skele army like you could pre-nerf D2 Necromancer. [editline]5th November 2016[/editline] Also Oh god that voice screams edgy
I hope the female voice sounds less tryhard evil, otherwise I'm hyped. Edit: [QUOTE=Naught;51308459]might not even be for consoles in general[/QUOTE] [quote]Q: Who will be able to play the Necromancer? A: We’re still settling on final details, but the Necromancer will be available as part of the Rise of the Necromancer pack, set to release in 2017. Players will need both Diablo III and Reaper of Souls to access this content ([B]or, in the case of console, the Ultimate Evil Edition on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One[/B]).[/quote] [URL="http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/20324407"]Source[/URL]
Forums and reddit are pissed that it's not a new expansion and that it's not free. I would drop a pretty penny to get a decent minion class in a game, so I don't know what people are complaining about. This makes me excited to actually play Diablo. Might reinstall path of exile to tide me over in the interim. Aside from dungeon crawlers and dwarf fortress, are there any other games with a good minion class/playstyle?
Not free? I already own the ult evil edition :P Maybe I'll start playing again, just so I can say I played Diablo 1 on console.
honestly i hope they port it to PS4 because i sorta prefer that version of the game but that's not gonna happen edit: seems they are nvm
more detailed info on stuff: [url]http://www.diablofans.com/news/48840-blizzcon-2016-day-1-live-updates[/url] The "diablo 1" dungeon (anniversary dungeon) will be available for one month a year so have fun with that. Diablo 3 has been dry of stuff to do because they can't support the game further without microtransactions. Hopefully they use the money from necromancer to do cool stuff. [editline]5th November 2016[/editline] Path of Exile might be a mess to learn and get into but they have a stream of revenue that allows them to do really cool and innovative stuff with the game
[QUOTE=Lyonidis;51311693] Aside from dungeon crawlers and dwarf fortress, are there any other games with a good minion class/playstyle?[/QUOTE] If you don't mind Korean grindfests, there's a summoner class in Dungeon Fighter Online. But it's a beat 'em up game and not an ARPG or CRPG.
