Bulovski Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Pretty sure it will. Design decisions will be made keeping console in mind and that's where things go bad. Diablo is a clickfest and should remain that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obil Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Pretty sure it will. Design decisions will be made keeping console in mind and that's where things go bad. Diablo is a clickfest and should remain that. Game is almost done and the fact that they are hiring port specialists now doesn't hint anything what you are saying. Also Blizzard is one of the last remaining PC developers who actually pay some attention to quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diablo is a clickfest and should remain that. I partially agree. Look at The Witcher 2... a great game which is somehow held back by its clunky interface. Having said that, if they develop the console version separately then it should be an issue. Look at Torchlight, works perfectly as clickfest on the PC and a hack-n-slash RPG on the 360.

Madmage Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Well if it coming on console, there goes my reason to finally get a decent gaming rig.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Well considering how long the PC version is taking I'd say the console version is probably a couple of years away. And get a PC dude. Don't keep making excuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saumil Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 A console port won't affect PC quality much. It's a Blizzard game firstly and their PS1 port of Diablo worked quite well judging from the reviews. It was basically all down to using a combo system for button presses to access different abilities. It will be a nice casual ARPG-fest on the consoles with the real hardcore item-hunt and boss-farming taking place on the PC version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aftrunner Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Pretty sure it will. Design decisions will be made keeping console in mind and that's where things go bad. Diablo is a clickfest and should remain that. The entire design document of D3 consists of the line "Click the left mouse button repeatedly." Its kinda hard to f**k that up. On a more serious note, the PC version has been in development for a gazillion years. And if they are just hiring for the console versions then its safe to say the PC version isnt getting hurt. Its not like they will go back and change the PC version to make it as bad (if the console versions are bad) as the console versions. I mean not every one is as incompetent as Bioware.

Bulovski Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Bioware got the controls right. They just let the "Mass Effect" effect lead them astray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aftrunner Posted June 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) n**** Bioware could be sitting on the right hand side of the room in the Worlds right handed people's convention in Right Hand city, capital of Righty McRight country and they still wouldnt be right about anything they did to DA2.

Ne0 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 ^^ Skill / inventory management will be a PITA. I'm playing DA:origins on PS3 and I can see how much the interface on consoles sucks. Nothing like mouse+kb for such kind of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i_rock098 Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I don't think you need to buy a new pc for it, diablo has been known to even run on older config when it came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
