Looking great! When is this expected ? Late 2020 or around May 2021 like D3 (I think D3 was may 2012) was?

What's next Warcaft 4?
Probably mid-late 2021 realistically, but hopefully sooner. No official date yet.

ooof. Going to be a long wait
From the "Unveiled" Q&A on at the moment they just said: "We're not coming out soon, not even Blizzard 'Soon'."
So... probably a while

2021 and he said PS4 and Xbone as well? Maybe they’re not allowed to say PS5 and XboxNext yet.

They can take all the time they want to make sure this game is worth the wait as far as im concerned. Love the initial look of it and with the value i got from D3 in terms of hours played ive no doubt this will be great
Totally agree; I'd rather they took their time and got it right the first time than just shove it out the door to hit a deadline, or it'll just quickly fizzle and burn out, and even worse, it may hinder future Diablo projects if they get another poorly received Diablo product.

How come there's no Blizzard sale to match BlizzCon? I wanted to pick up Diablo 3 at a reduced price.

When I heard them say PS4 I got excited thinking next year but maybe you're right maybe they can't say the names of next gen consoles

I never much liked 2 but really enjoyed 3, even at launch. Saying that, the loot issues did take the edge off it massively the more you played it.

Is it just me or could the graphics have been better?
Maybe just early footage.... but I was thinking they could have done a lot more with graphics at this point in time. It's 2019.... we got RTX cards and all that jazz. Plus it's top down so can get away with more demanding stuff.
I love the direction they are going. Back to diablos original roots so no complaints there.

Reddit had a private Q&A with two of the developers, some interesting stuff in it! Added a bunch of new bits and bobs to the notes spoilers in the first post if anyone wants to check it out.
I'd imagine it's just that it's pre-alpha / alpha. There's lots of graphical issues I noticed, like it doesn't appear to use any anti-aliasing, the lightning is off on monsters like some just aren't reacting to light sources, and there's clipping and camera issues. Can't imagine they'd release the game like that, and I'd hope that in 18 months or so (or whenever the game comes out) it'll have came on a long way. But yeah the direction they are taking looks great and I'm glad they've gone back to "serious mode" with the tone of the game, and as per that Reddit Q&A I mentioned above, they are aiming for a slightly slower Diablo 3 pace with a world as grimey and putrid as Diablo 1 and 2.
Here's some HD screenshots though: https://imgur.com/a/0YxKLSd
