Hey,
Currently there is quite a large variety in weapons and armor however they aren't all that interesting and this is because of two reasons :
- too much bad to very bad weapon drops in late game
- and they don't offer much visualy, what I would do is make the weapon and armor graphics bigger in the inventory so they look cool instead of small logo's. Also make the really good weapons look cooler. Actually , the weapon graphics in Diablo 2 were very good so something like that would do.
Hey Yannos.
I don't know, as you might remember, Diablo 2 had square-based inventory: every item took X squares. BD has another inventory system, which is arguably better for a big tactical RPG it is.
Don't you think so?
There is no variety in weapons: you mean the 2d icons or the 3d models on your character?
What exactly do you mean as "bad weapons"?
Cheers,
-Baz.

he probably means how they look when they are in the inventory window....
you know... they all look the same for each weapon...no matter what the stats.
 maybe "beef up" the extra special weapons, so it/they stand out.

D2's items were better, because they were designed for that game.  is a different game in a different universe and I don't see a point to copy *everything* from a game that sold just incredibly well. The inventory of D2 reappears in Drakan as well ... it's kind of nice, but faar to restricted , I mean that it gets to easily full. I HATE it when I have to sell uniques in D2, just because I have no more room / space in my inventory ! The positive aspect is that the items in this kind of inventory are usually bigger than in other games -> more sight for the eye / eye-candy !

BD already copys their system so why not just go the whole 9 yards instead of a watered down version of it.
There is nothing original in D2 system. In addition, BD isn't the only game with that item system. "Watered-down"? I won't say. Just because there is a colour to the item it doesn't mean it was "ripped off from D2", agree?
For example, Degrade Quality is new to BD.

In D2 you were always on the lookout for good treasure and you never knew if a monster would drop a godly rare item. In BD everything past act 2 was a waste of time to even look out. The itmes bought in the battelfields were 2x's better than anything I found in a treasure chest or slain monster.
Yes, but you did get good items on Battlefields, so I see no reason to complain.
Also, have you finished BD?

Apart from multiplayer (which has been mentioned), something for the modding community might be a good idea (which may have also been mentioned  ).
