Only 20 days till next season and no PTR yet?
I don't see what releasing an entirely brand new game is going to achieve.
Monetization. Diablo 3 doesn't earn them any regular money through microtransactions like their other games. I hope that's wrong because I agree it would be great to have more Diablo 3 content.
Complete a Torment XIII Rift in under 5 minutes
Complete Greater Rift 60 solo
Kill Greed on Torment XIII
Kill Izual on Torment XIII in under 30 seconds
Reforge a Legendary or Set item
Augment two Ancient items with Level 40 or greater Legendary Gems
Level three Legendary Gems to 55
Complete two Conquests
Monetization can be achieved in Diablo 3. All you have to do is look at the Chinese version of the game for proof. All the development is already done for any monetization of d3.
Won't happen outside of there.
Something will happen at Blizzcon the strongest rumour seems to be something we don't expect, not an expansion, not a 4th Diablo but something else.
We won't know until Blizzcon though and I'm just hoping it's something as last year was awful! (the area for Diablo at last years Blizzcon was smaller than the toilets).
You know what i would love to see? a new MMORPG from Blizzard set in the Diablo Universe, could bring out all the classes from previous Diablos etc and some new ones.
