My prediction and the mechanic for 3.0 that will addresses a common problem of ARPGs in a unique fashion:


Randomly generated story and quests.


This will make Act bosses random, all quests random and in fact Act tilesets themselves random.


Example:
Act 4 becomes an Act 1 tileset.
The first quest generated is to find the 3 Busts and bring them to Hargan who is now an NPC in Act 1 town.
The generated Act boss is Hillock on steroids. etc..

I hope my guess is right, irregardless of the mirror.
I just want these changes.


Well I'd like my mirror now thanks.

You really thought you were getting a mirror out of this?

yes because it's literally what they announced

I predict professions. Since Chris's wife was excited about it she must have seen cooking in the game.


LOOOOL

It's literally nothing like what you said it would be.

Preliminary result: I did go through all the pages in the thread to see who came closest. Dark_Chicken was the first to suggest that all difficulties would be removed: "Remove difficulties, having only to do the entire story once and zone level scaling.". I have not managed to find a post that got closer to what was actually announced (specifically adding a lot of new acts). Just in case that I overlooked something I will wait for another 24 hours before handing over the mirror. Please post in this thread if you feel that I overlooked something.

I was kinda close since they would also be removing something else along with cruel (GGG threw a red herring by saying 5x2, but it is two parts, not two difficulties), but Dark_Chicken did nail it better by giving a straightforward answer.



Edit: My post (the 2nd one which was in page 2) had some doubt. I was also thinking maybe they would remove another difficulty, but then it reminded me that Diablo 3 also removed the difficulty modes right before or around RoS, so I felt less confident about including that. In the end, Dark_Chicken did better than me.

really dont think they announced that part yet....

i mean we ALL knew about the getting rid of cruel and merciless
actually we knew about that YEARS ago...
.. i coulda told you that...

.. but i guess sure, most of us only expected an act 5, and cruel to be taken out,
but YEARS ago they said there will be 10 acts, and no normal - cruel - merciless

on the Oriath page it says:

Cruel yes, but merciless removal is what surprised me. I was expecting one difficulty to happen until like act 8 or 9, but GGG went and gave us 6 new acts. That pretty much meant merciless will have to go too.

they said it YEARS ago though, that there would only be 1 "difficulty",
that normal, cruel, merciless would be replaced by the fact they were going to have 10 acts,
we were told that during like closed beta

me and a buddy would play this game and fantasize about the 10 acts, and not having to run through 3 difficulties... for hoours wed come up with ideas and stuff,
and that was before 1.0

... i mean, so surely, thats not the "new mechanic that fixes an ARPG problem"
... and if it is ... wooow.. thats lame as hell, we already knew that...
