Comment on MWN #102 – Horrifabulous by Chronofied

I felt like Diablo III played almost exactly like Diablo II, though some of the mechanics have been adjusted. The graphic makeover is fantastic; some of the physics are really cool, and the lighting is excellent. There are lots of little things that enrich the gameplay, like optional “lore” audio clips you can listen to while you are playing. It really is an old-school style dungeon crawler, true to the original entries in the series. What I’m excited to see is the myriad environments they create and how they will set the mood and ambiance in each of them. Being in “New Tristram” in the beta made it feel even more like Diablo and Diablo II, but I expect that they will create a plethora of variegate environments for us, in which we can click and play and slaughter. Also, Wizard FTW.

PS – I saw an episode of “Ancient Aliens” where they insinuated that aliens flying cigar shaped spacecraft brought the black plague. I laughed so hard I choked.

What the?! No wonder Clive mentioned that I should listen to this episode! For the record, Clive does a podcast! And he does some Starcraft II Commentating!

I really enjoyed Skyrim for the first 40-50 hours. The story and emersive game play was great… Then the combat became very tiring, my archery was maxed out, and it there wasn’t much to look forward to. I then just burned through the main story line to finish.

Clearly you weren’t paying attention in class. You have like 8 errors in that paragraph.

Joel, for reals? Mrs. Hoddnick (I don’t remember how to spell her name because she did not in fact teach me everything about prep. nouns and adjectives and all of that other bull. Those silly little plastic cards we made were the death of me.) She’s like Saruman’s eye, she see’s everything!!!!! Eyes in the back of her head, I swear to God.

Inside joke FTW!
