One random source does not a story make.
The gaming internet exploded earlier today with rumors that Blizzard, creator of World of Warcraft and Diablo, had a top-secret free-to-play project in the works. This news scoop came courtesy of Develop, a gaming news site that apparently has the inside dope on what’s going on over at Blizzard HQ. Naturally, the rumor quickly spun into a firestorm.
Here’s the problem—no one stopped to ask Blizzard. And when someone (GameSpot) finally got around to doing it, the company simply said, “Yeah, we’re working on a F2P game. It’s called Blizzard DOTA, and we announced it at BlizzCon.”
So, by all accounts, this looks like another case of the gaming press putting the cart before the horse. Blizzard is indeed working on a F2P game – it’s been confirmed that DOTA will run on a microtransaction model – but there’s nothing particularly “top secret” about it.
Nothing to see here, folks. Move along!
Unless, of course, the response from Blizz was all a clever ruse…
What do you think Blizz is up to?

Blizzard’s new dungeon crawler has a max of four players and no voice chat.
Diablo III is steadily creeping up on the horizon, and as the game gets closer to final launch, more and more details begin to emerge. This week’s information comes in the form of specs on the multiplayer mode of the game, which is apparently a bit more limited than most players were expecting.
Diablo III’s multiplayer will support a maximum of four players, despite the fact that Diablo II supported eight. Blizzard has also elected to leave in-game voice chat out completely, so you’d better fire up your Vent server if you want to communicate with friends. This is likely the direct result of the massive failure that was voice chat in StarCraft II.
The reason given for the player limitation is that the game would be too “chaotic” with eight players casting spells all over the place. Some bloggers are also speculating that the limit could have something to do with the console version of the game, but who knows?
Regardless of the reasons, there are your Diablo III multiplayer deets. Four player cap, no voice chat.
What do you think? Is multiplayer a driving factor in your wanting the game?

Blizzard gets rid of companion pets in Diablo III, but it’s not all about their appearance.
Diablo III, just months from its theoretical release, is still being constantly tweaked by the folks at Blizzard. Customary to the company’s traditional style, changes and tweaks will likely be added to the game until the day it gets printed on disc. The latest change, announced by Blizz Community Manager Nethaera, is the removal of Scrolls of Companion.
If you don’t have the good fortune of being in the Diablo III beta, Scrolls of Companion are simply spells that summon a companion pet to fight with your character. Nethaera lists two primary reasons for the dev team’s removal of the pets: Number one, it seemed like the pets had become mandatory for efficient play, and number two, some of the pets were just too cute for the world of Diablo.
She did mention that the team isn’t ruling out companion pets forever, and that they’d probably revisit the system once the game goes gold. In the meantime, you’ll just have to quest without these helpful and adorable critters.
What do you think of companion pets in Diablo?

Blizzard confirms that its annual convention will not occur this year due to a packed schedule.
BlizzCon is a yearly celebration of the games in the Blizzard universe. Fans come from all around the world to hang out with fellow WoW, Diablo and StarCraft players, as well as to get the scoop on upcoming game and expansion releases. The convention provides Blizzard fans with a way to connect to developers, and last year’s convention hosted over 26,000 players.
Sadly for fans of Blizzard games, it looks like BlizzCon 2012 won’t be happening. Citing a “jam-packed” schedule, Blizzard has elected to focus instead on its 2012 Battle.net World Championship, which will take place somewhere in Asia. This event will play host to the WoW Arena World Championship as well as the StarCraft II World Championship. Blizzard is also working on a full slate of games, adding to their crunch for time.
Here’s the official statement from Battle.net:
“We’re excited to be showcasing Blizzard eSports on a truly global stage this year. We're also heavily focused on getting Diablo III, Mists of Pandaria, and Heart of the Swarm into players’ hands as soon as possible. In light of our jam-packed schedule, we’ve decided to hold the next BlizzCon in 2013.”
This news is definitely a disappointment to fans that have enjoyed BlizzCon in the past – especially those that can afford to road trip to California but perhaps not an international flight to some Asian locale. It’s also a curious reasoning for canceling the popular event, considering that Blizz has always had games in development during previous BlizzCons. Let the wild speculation begin!
What do you think of the decision to cancel BlizzCon?

Blizzard is tweaking their dungeon-crawling opus in response to beta user feedback.
Diablo III’s beta has been trucking steadily along, and while we did receive a bit of a tip in the form of a leaked release date, news has been relatively scarce. Essentially, we know that the beta is in progress and that the game is set for release sometime this year – there haven’t been any big bombshells.
Today’s news marks the biggest tidbit we’ve gotten on the subject. Diablo’s director, Jay Wilson, made a statement on the official Diablo blog that the Blizzard team would be tweaking some of the in-game systems thanks to player feedback. Here’s a list of some of the changes mentioned:
Removal of Scrolls of Identification
Removal of Cauldron of Jordan
Removal of Nephalem Cubes
Adjustment of core character stats
Common items are no longer salvageable
Blacksmiths can now salvage items
Addition of a dedicated potions button
Removal of Mystic artisan
You can view the full details of Diablo III’s upcoming updates by following the source link at the bottom of this post. It looks like Blizzard is doing some serious work on the game’s mechanics; hopefully this won’t have an effect on the final release date.

At this point, the presence of Diablo on consoles isn’t a surprise. But at least it’s official!
We’ve seen plenty of hints that Blizzard was considering a console port of Diablo III; most notably, when the company actually stated that they were considering it. Since then, there have been a few job postings and other indications that the game was being developed, but it wasn’t until today that we heard some sort of official confirmation.
Taking to Twitter, Blizzard community manager Bashiok confirmed the console version’s existence by announcing that Josh Mosqueira, who helmed development on Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, would be leading the console Diablo project.
Of course, since this is Blizzard we’re talking about, details are relatively scarce. We know that Diablo III is in development for consoles, but we don’t know which consoles or when. All we can assume is that the game will show up on PS3 and/or Xbox 360, and it will be sometime in the next twenty years.
Either way, it’s pretty great news for the console community – we’ll finally get a chance to enjoy this Diablo thing everyone loves so much!

Growing evidence indicates Blizzard was serious about bringing Diablo III to a console near you.
Remember earlier this year, when Blizzard talked about bringing Diablo III to consoles? The company was clear about its intent to explore a console release for the long-awaited sequel, but there’s a big difference between “exploring a release” and “actively developing.” We’ve got some new fuel to throw on the fire today, in the form of a job posting published by the company earlier this week.
The new job, listed as Console Network Senior Software Engineer, has one primary responsibility when it comes to Diablo III:
“Design, implement, and maintain networking related game systems for the console game.
Identify previously unknown issues and offer solutions.”
So there you have it. Diablo III is almost certainly headed to consoles – eventually. There’s still no confirmation from Blizzard, nor is there any type of release date (as is the company’s custom). But if they’re hiring people to work specifically on the console version of the game, you can expect to see it in your PS3/Xbox 360 game section soon enough.
Assuming, of course, it doesn’t go the way of StarCraft: Ghost.
Would you play Diablo III on a console?

Looks like the fan response may not have been exactly what the World of Warcraft developer expected, with lead designer Chris Metzen stepping in to assert the company’s seriousness.
Over the weekend, Blizzard made some pretty huge announcements regarding their numerous successful franchises. Fans got up-close looks at Diablo III and a weird DOTA game, in addition to tons of information about upcoming changes to World of Warcraft. Perhaps the biggest reveal, however, was the next World of Warcraft expansion, titled Mists of Pandaria.
Now, it’s worth noting that the Pandaren were originally introduced into Warcraft III as a joke, and it was only thanks to player demand that they actually ended up an integral part of the game. It’s also worth noting that Blizzard has used Pandaren as an April Fool’s joke for World of Warcraft in the past. So it’s no wonder that some players still feel like the entire thing is one huge joke, and many of the ones who don’t seem disappointed in what is collectively being called “lore-rape.”
Chris Metzen, lead designer at Blizzard and the man responsible for most of the memorable characters and lore in the Warcraft universe, stepped in to let people know that the company is deadly serious about their new expansion, and seemed to be asking players not to judge it without playing first.
After being asked whether Mists would see actual story content in the WoW lore panel on Sunday, Metzen had this to say:
“This is no joke. This is not a throw-away silly-silly ha ha funny expansion set; it is absolutely the next vital chapter and as things ratchet up, they’re gonna get really gnarly.”
I’ve talked previously about my feelings regarding this new expansion, so I’m not going to get too much into my opinion in this particular post. What I can say for sure is that if your first job after announcing a massive expansion to your incredibly successful game is convincing players that it’s not actually a joke, you might be on thin ice.
Blizzard is pretty good at what they do, so the best thing to do for now is wait and see how the expansion develops. Who knows, maybe they can take the Pandaren story and turn it into something really compelling. There could be some really cool dungeons hidden   away on Pandaria, just waiting to be conquered.
What do you think about Mists of Pandaria?
