Talk:Dev Updates (Diablo IV)

Is there a need for this article? It's simply archiving the posts, when the info is already incorporated into the D4 article.Hawki (talk) 13:05, 21 December 2020 (UTC)


 * I don't think the D4 article contains this. This is here mainly for posterity purposes and as a contingency plan. For example the Writings of Abd al-Hazir were once accessible in the D3 website, but were taken down. If people didn't know they existed, they wouldn't be able to search it in Wayback Machine. But in here, at least someone would be able to find it. Also, it would provide context representing the time it first appeared and was understood, which may aid future analyses.ArcTriumvirate (talk) 02:53, 23 December 2020 (UTC)


 * The seeming weakness of this wiki is that it lacks documentation on game development progress (particularly D3) before launch (or cancellation). In another wiki (coincidentally also called Diablo Wiki), the Witch Doctor's pre-launch skills were documented. Take the Demon Hunter's Molten Arrow skill (beta?); it isn't found anywhere on this Wiki but it's present on the other Wiki. Sadly, I included Dev Updates in this wiki because there's a lack of activity in the other Diablo Wiki (this is their exact name, but to differentiate them, the Diablo: IncGamers version and Gamepedia) compared to here.ArcTriumvirate (talk) 02:53, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
