[Mp1st] Diablo III Expansion Confirmed

post #1 of 180

Quote:
After some impressive sales figures reported in Activision Blizzard’s third quarter 2012 financial results, Blizzard president Mike Morhaime confirms the development of a Diablo III expansion, but gives no expected release time frame.

As with Diablo and Diablo II, both titles which have received content add-ons a year after release, Diablo III seems to be following suit. While the timing cannot be confirmed to be similar, an expansion is, indeed, in the works, according to a recent Activision Blizzard investor call.

When asked about plans to expand Diablo III a year after release, Morhaime answered, “We do have a plan, an expansion plan for Diablo.” However, he added, “I don’t have any timeline to talk about. I think that the most important thing for us always comes down to the quality of the expansion, of the gameplay, and so that will be a big factor in terms of driving our schedule.”

Wow, working on d3 expansion when the original game wasn't even close to finished.

This may be the first Diablo title I don't buy.

Hopefully they overhaul the entire item system and drop rates, make skills useful, and then maybe I'll reroll a character and never touch the AH.
