As well all know Blizzard recently announced that Starcraft 2 is being developed for release later this year. The poll question I want to put out to you all is would you have rather seen Starcraft 2 or Diablo 3 announced. Or perhaps a whole new title altogether. My vote goes to Diablo 3. I personally just cant get enough of it. The clicking..the looting...the level upping...nuff said.
I don't feel the need for a Diablo 3. I wouldn't complain if it came along but the need is not there. I feel like the story was nicely wrapped up at the end of Throne of Baal. I don't need a continuation of it.
As far as the need for more Diabloesque gameplay... Try Titan Quest. Seriously. Its like Diablo2 with some enhancements. Plenty of clicking, looting, and level-upping to be had there.
I have played and enjoyed both Starcraft and Diablo 2: I wouldn't mind Blizzard developing a sequel for either title. Blizzard has definitely left its mark on strategy games, action RPG's, and MMORPG's. I would like to see Blizzard develop a new title for perhaps a different genre of games. The setting wouldn't have to be completely new: the game could be set in the Starcraft Universe but play like a FPS with some elements of a strategy game. I would definitely look forward to some epic battles on Battle.net if Blizzard releases a Starcraft FPS.
For me, it's diablo3 all the way. But to be honest, I might even skip it. I'm more into FPS and less into action RPG these days. But a very well made and compelling Diablo3 might easily change my mind. It's only that I'm not dreaming about it.
SC2 all the way. No game gave me more hours of online playing enjoyment than the original Starcraft. My friends and I used to play that game all night (talking trash all the while), and it has nostalgic value to me.
