The "I told you so" thread. - Page 2

[:1]It would be really interesting if searching the archives you find posts of yours that called something correctly. I don't mean "The skill system could well change before release", something more specific like the demon hunters resource system for example.|||Okay. I predict at some point (xpac?) the skill limit will be raised back to 7.|||Quote:








The RMAH will explode to extreme proportions and pretty much be the next big thing that ever hit the internet gaming.




This.

EDIT: Clarification. The idea will explode with success, the implementation in D3 may or may not work.

And

Everyone who said that they are no longer fans of Blizzard and refuse to buy the game will in fact buy the game and play it everyday.|||Keep in mind that making a prediction that can be proven makes for a much more interesting thread. Generalized things like "everyone will ...." are unprovable, so you can't really "i told you so" to it in the future. Saying that " XXX will be a huge success" can be proven, with sales figures / press statements.

and of course being specific as Elly said.|||Prediction:



Old time players find D3 lacking in substance, yearn for D3 (not this one) to someday be release. New and younger players love it.

or better yet..

Significant in volume, not necessarily size, group of players leave D3 after a few months attaching to <insert game> as the true successor.



And my all time favorite will be:



It took this long for bots?|||Diablo 3 will beat World of Warcrafts record.

Edit:

Quote from the future: "Ohh my god, this new Blizz game has cartoony graphics, its a D3 ripoff".|||PVP becomes wildly popular and they start balancing for an Esport.

I hope that above is not true or at least keep a full seperate set of variables as to not destroy the PVE game.

The beta last a shockingly short 2months and the game launches with major issues

Just realized my only 2 predictions were very negative I think this forum is starting to rub off on me.|||Quote:

...and Blizzard quickly responds with a flurry of excellent patches within days. There, now it's more positive |||Quote:

Blizzard already confirmed that there is PvP data and PvE data, so if they wanted they can balance PvP without changing anything in PvE.

Wave of Light shown at Blizzcon 2010 is the base form and not a rune version.

The Sword and Board class archetype will not added into the game in either expansions.
