Homebrew Diablo 2 remake for DS in the works

[Hyperlisk_]

Blizzard will never allow this to be finished....

Fairly certain Blizzard couldn't do shit about it, nor would they want to. First of all, as a homebrew game, this game is likely to never even be so much as a blip on their radar. Second, so long as the game wasn't sold or mass distributed for commercial purposes, the coder has the right to tinker `til the cows come home -- at least in the U.S. he/she does.

In any case, if Blizzard cared about this sort of thing, they'd have swallowed up DotA a long, long time ago. DotA probably has more of a fanbase than 80 percent of other prominent online games today, and it's a user-made map from WC3: TFT. Trust me, Blizzard doesn't give a rat's ass about us playing in our treehouse.

Yeah, that's why they didn't care about StarLite

yea they should develop using own resources. Even stickmen are good. And at final development stage; replace resources and release to the masses!!!!

..or the C&C Generals-Starcraft mod. Blizzard is incredibly quick to file the C&D letters, please to be talking out of your arse less and reading more.

That's why you post news that "someone" is making one, but then say "they won't Release their name to prevent being shut down by the company" then Release it "for the other guy"...
