Well played.
Well, Dual Wielding isn't always the best option due to how the DPS is calculated so there's that at least.

Missing out on playing 3 out of the 6 classes in one of the best games ever because they have cooties? oh dear
Well... it's getting closer. Hoping for some kickass bosses. Also... I really do hope this game turns out to be a perpetually playable one, like D2 before, a game you could pop in years and years after release and enjoy it just as much due to it's inherent mechanics.
Diablo 1 doesn't like Win 7 64 bit
Was giving me headaches trying to figure out the discolouration and things just got weird =/MONKeys are faster than normal monks. Plus they got special abilities such as "Mantra Of Bananalovers"

)why wouldn't you want to play as the females? :S
Because it's pokeman, not pokewoman...

Weird 'cause I always choose a male protagonist in games. Don't know why, just always have.

Mine ran in Vista 64 with no issues.
Well that doesn't help me at all! :*(
Good to hear you got it working though no problem, given I've played Diablo 1 a lot more than 2, I really wanted to dive back into 1

Same, if ever given a choice i ALWAYS pick the female variant especially when they're good looking and have hot bods with a nice ass (see: Kingdoms of Amalur, Saints Row 3, Mass Effect series). It's not just the aesthetics tho... it's something else too, some mental trait about women in power, not sure what exactly.

Guess some people just identify better with same sex characters. For me a big thing is posture, I remember I went female troll in WoW just cause it annoyed me how hunched the males are, so I'd probs go female WD, I was definitely going to go male Wizard until I heard his voice and it just reminds me of too many animes and I really like the female Wizard VA
I too always pick duders. Allows me more immersion to make me feel like I am this bad ass mother fucker.
Picking a lady draws me out of the experience a bit, and plus I'm not turned on by pixel chicks.
Granted in Metal Gear Online all that went out the window because those ladies are fine, and they were a smaller target than male's in the multiplayer.

Not possible. You on that 50 posts-per-page peasant viewing?
I'm sure this won't be much of an issue.

Reposting myself here:
Re Windows 7 64 bit running Diablo 1: If you open up your screen resolution preferences (Right click on the desktop) then launch Diablo, your colors will be fine. It's a little easier then killing explorer.exe
I did it and beat the entire game this way just recently.

Impossible.
We are moving at a pace of 2500 posts per day meaning 25 pages per day. Today we will maybe hit page 50, maybe.

He's talking about 50 posts per page, you are on 100/page

Hmm at 15 I guess I just wanted the avatar to represent me more, and that simply couldn't be done if I was a female
To be honest now that I'm older I have no probs playing female characters, but if the choice is given I'm always going to be male simply because I relate to it more I suppose.
Even better D3 allows male power all the way. Male Wizard is Crispin Freeman, cementing my position to play as Alucard himself.

We can make Page 100 if we make a KONY film about it.
He must not be undercore enough and lacks GAF Gold.
Mmmm, dat cosplay.
Generally speaking, I just go through which I think look better and sound better. Though, I suppose "look better" tends to be skewed towards female designs rather than male.

Lol, you and that damn word.
So... just another day at work. Sitting here. Browsing GAF, waiting for the burning hells to open and the sky to fall. :/

I tried this and it didn't work
Maybe I missed something, but it's certainly nothing complex, I mean I'm not a dummy. Perhaps I'll have to give this a try than.

You should try setting your background all black. It should do the trick (Diablo wants it black)
edit: No need for regedits or changing desktop composition.
edit#2: You also need to have the screen resolution open when running it.
Let's fuckin rage!!!!

Killing explorer.exe works too... but is more of a pain.
The reason I play games to begin with, story.
spoiler tag this, but do we know how many quests per act yet?
I skip the cutscenes in most games, and I'm sure I will in Diablo 3. I'm in it for the gameplay. Video game stories just aren't that good IMO. I'd rather read.
Wtf!?!?!??!I say I won't buy anything on the RMAH but truthfully if there's a good deal on there that's inexpensive I probably won't pass that up if I've got the money.
Also found this in the hallway just now
lol dog's been thrashing the Yoshi plushie. It's a sign..!

Indeed. Considering how much replay value was in the beta alone, (must have spent 20 hours in it and that was a very small slice) I'd say the chances are looking good. The radically different classes are there, the randomization is there, and the combat mechanics have actually gotten much better than D2.

Wow i couldn't imagine skipping the bound-to-be glorious d3 cinematics/cut scenes. Story is very, very important to me in games. I feel like there's no point to playing without a story.
Yeah, I wanted something a bit more permanent instead of having to do it every single time I ran it
What an odd thing to do if that is indeed what would work. Guess I'll try again when I get home later tonight.

So apparently the D3 Facebook page posted a poll asking what class people are going to play, and the votes as of when I saw it were as follows:
Barb: 6.6k
DH: 6k
Monk: 4.7k
Wizard: 4.3k
WD: 3.6k
Honestly, I would have thought Wizard would be higher up than that, and that fewer people would be so hard for the DH (which I'm playing second).

After looking at the armory I am starting to feel that a few months in everybody will have everything. There are 1 or 2 uniques for each slot and they are level 60. Unlike diablo 2 where there were many unique gloves or boots for example that even at level 25 or 30 would be worn by level 80's due to % stats. So i figure at level 60 everyone will be farming the 1 or 2 uniques per slot and everyone will have the same gear.
Don't get me wrong, I am more excited for this game than Yoshi, I just miss Runewords and more lewts

They've gone on record saying that the only things they've shown in the armory are the uniques. There will be a ton of rares which will be potentially better than the uniques, and that's not including the sets, either.
