Diablo FINALLY wakes up. Thank goodness. ;_;

Now, would it be doing any better if Diablo was in the pic? Somehow I doubt it.

How long will it take for diabloii.net to link here and call the people here immature FF fanboys or something?

I don't give them very long.

As I was saying in the hustle and bustle, can we further attribute this to less established series bombing or do we just accept it as ownage and leave it at that?

Would be pretty weak of them. Not like I tried to sabotage the poll with proxy votes. Just used what was available. In all honesty, never crossed my mind that it was wrong to do something like that. But whatever, time for bed.

Have you even played both Diablo games? They're as different as you can possibly get without changing genre entirely.

Not only did I play both, I was high on both ladders. An established player, y'know? 2 is really just 1, but taking out every thing that was possibly bad in any way and improving it thousands of percent >_>

Also, SquareFAQs > BlizzardFAQs it seems!

Okay, let's assume for a minute that Final Fantasy and Zelda are equals: What does Diablo get on Civilization with its current percentage (15.69%)?

lol.. Zelda will surely break 40% .. I said a long time before this contest starts that this LoZ vs. FF will just be another OoT vs. FFVII , if not worse..

I can't even remember the changes between Diablo and Diablo II. However, I played Diablo through in 1998 or so, and Diablo II back in 2001, so my memory's a little hazy.

They're both pretty mindless hack-and-slashes. Click, click, click until your mouse is worn out. Get to Diablo/Mephisto/Baal. Beat him. Repeat. Over. And over. And over.
