Diablo III in February?

[Jan 08, 2012, 2:17 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Joystiq has an image of a store display in a Rochester, Minnesota Best Buy that seems to show a February 1 launch date for Diablo III, Blizzard's upcoming action/RPG sequel. They have some follow ups that don't completely confirm or deny this, and word that the end-cap was legit, but has since been removed. Meanwhile, the Best Buy Website now shows a February 1 release date for the game.

The line by line is getting really tedious so I'm just going to summarize. I don't think it's unreasonable to expect some middle of the road functionality, every single design decision can't be solely influenced by whether or not some shitty user is going to do evil because that's a foregone conclusion. Someone is going to find a way to hack Diablo 3 regardless, people were already hacking away on the beta. Likewise I don't expect Blizzard to necessarily make it easier for them but if I'm going to have all of the potential negatives that come with an MMO experience then I'd expect them to at least make up for some of that in design.

Whether traditional single player games is an outdated model is a different discussion but I don't think sales point towards that conclusion, most companies incorporate this type of online functionality as anti-piracy/used game protection methods than anything else. Considering the massive benefit it seems to have in design and towards the industry bottom line I don't think people are being unreasonable in suggesting that other considerations don't need to be dropped by the wayside.

Anyway that's all I've got to offer, good discussion everyone.
