I have been using Google Analytics on this blog for traffic analysis but with the latest announcement by Google I am wondering if people object to it. You can easily block it with Ghostery but I still want to know how you feel about analytics tracking.
Loading ...Pootster on reddit uploaded a picture of Larson the Strange which has a very strange byline. It could be a reference to plants vs zombie which according to the latest Diablo development strategy will be the basis for the new combat system. Details are still unclear but I suspect they will announce it at this year’s Blizzcon.
… Oh wait, they cancelled Blizzcon 2012.
Steve Parker, Senior Game Producer for Diablo 3 is leaving Blizzard. He announced this on twitter yesterday. Reasons for his departure are unknown but there doesn’t seem to be any animosity between him and the diablo team. Sometimes people just need a change of scenery.
It seems the developers of the Mooege educational project stumbled upon the location of the D3 development team. And i wholeheartedly agree. The current development track is something unheard of in modern projects and for good reasons. Projects that constantly evolve outside the defined concepts tend to grow cumbersome and unfocused. So far things work well in the beta, can’t wait to try patch 10.
Well everybody and their grandmother were already hyping the release of Diablo 3 when Jay Wilson decided drop a nuke on the whole community. A great deal of core concepts have been changed up to a point were people went WTF? When I read it the first time I checked to see whether it was April Fools, but it’s not.
So Diablo release is seemingly miles away and things seem to be falling apart. The changes made are at the core of Diablo and will turn it into a completely different game.
