Roper Interview Translated

Forum moderator Tetanus kindly contributed a very quickly and thoroughly done translation of the GamesCodes.dk interview with Bill Roper. Enjoy:

There have been rumors of the Diablo III project, and for the first time since the rumor emerged, Bill Roper has commented on it to GamesCodes.dk. Bill Roper used to be one of the "higher-ups" at Blizzard but left the company and started Flagship Studios. Now Roper has commented on the rumor about Diablo III to us, even though he hasn't given it much thought.

"Regarding Blizzard and Diablo III, they (Blizzard) will, of course, keep a passive attitude to rumors, since the game has not yet been announced. We (Flagship Studios) certainly all love the universe we have created, and hope that it will be carried on. We still expect great things from Blizzard, and look forward to seeing what they are working on now," Roper explains. "Even though we have no influence on the game they are developing, it sometimes feels strange that we've been so absorbed in the development of our own project here at Flagship Studios that we haven't had time to think about it."

"In the past months we've worked hard on technology, characters, monster design and creation, sound, environment, and how to bring it all to life in our new project. We feel that we are very close to being able to talk more publicly about the project, and of course we'll do all we can to share our vision with others when we go public. I think that when we do publish the game it will be worth the wait," he concluded."

I hope they work on a system to prevent drop-mods and such.

Re: Diablo III Musings

No matter what they do soemone will always fine a way to exploit the system.

Re: Diablo III Musings

I really liked Diablo 2, but I would like a Diablo 3 so I could start at the same time as everyone else and have an impressive stash of equipment.

Re: Diablo III Musings

After WoW, I kinda don't care about Diablo 3... Unless it's an MMO :sneaky:

Nah I dunno, I'm kinda interested to see where they go from there with the story (because y'know, in diablo that's the most important part)... What with the "worldstone" being destroyed and all...

And see if it tranfers into 3D this time around, and if so how that'd work out...

Re: Diablo III Musings

i liked D2 up to the point where the patch was postponed for several months...i just gave up waiting and went on to play other games...i still have my CDs and stuff...doubt i will ever play it again, i don't feel like starting over.

Re: Diablo III Musings

So......knowing Blizzard, we might see Diablo 3 within the next eon.
