do you guys remember the boss in Diablo II, Duriel? Man that guy was overpowered. This all depended on what class you took, how you developed your skills trees, but overall in all my playthroughs I found Duriel always the hardest boss.
I remember he was hardest for my Barbarian, easiest for my Necro. My Barbarian was invincible before Duriel and after Duriel, but he was eaten many times during Duriel Mephisto and Diablo himself was a pushover for me compared to him. |

Yup, Duriel was a tough one. My main character was a paladin and I had a pretty hard time getting him down. But still nothing beats Diablo in part 1 When you had slain your way through the succubus hordes and finally meet Diablo it was really great to fight him, even if you died several times. I really loved the 'decend to hell' theme of Diablo 1. Hope they bring that to the third part.

For Diablo I Diablo, I fought fire with fire.
Coming from D&D, I always presumed that which uses fire, is immune to it. Heaven and hell duality got weaker in Diablo II. I just want: dark, goth, grit, and pseudo-Christian theme. Oh, and I don't like how a class can be either gender. |

Me too (about male valkyries and Warcraft 3 being my last Blizzard game). Fantasy is about stereotypes to some degree and I don't mind if you could choose the gender. There are many games that work (e.g. Tomb Raider ) with only one gender for the main character. If you can choose it's not bad, but also it's not necessary to be involved in the game.

But since Oblivion runs quite smooth on my system there is a chance that Fallout 3 will not be too bad and until Diablo 3 is out I certainly have a new machine |

Why is everyone concerned with D3 needing a high end machine? Blizzard is one of the few companies that can create nice graphics on mid range hardware. I wouldn't upgrade your system just yet.

You might be right about that gimbal, but I fear if they release in 2010 it will be DX10 only Of course I hope it will be playable on my machine

I wouldn't fear to much about the DX10 problem, even in 2010 too many systems are still going to be running XP for blizzard to make that bold move. They will support DX10 but in a seperate rendering path. They have the money and the will to do that, they even make a mac version for heavens sake. That means that they may even include an OpenGL rendering path.
