I think that you guys should also show things about other games/game series/game universes aside the Diablo Universe such as the Warcraft Universe.

Hi,

you read the main page, didn't you? Paraphrasing, the LL is not a general gaming site and doesn't try to be.

As for Warcraft, there's the WoW beta forum...

Take care,

Well, I think Bolty said it perfectly the last time some poor schmuck suggested this type of change (in that case, suggesting we need more Diablo I forums):

Okay, here's what I think: I think it's a bad idea.

If you need further clarification, you don't understand why we're here, or the nature of such a website.

Allow me to elaborate upon what others have said. The Lurker Lounge is based on exploring game mechanics. Some games (such as, say, The Oregon Trail) just wouldn't fit in. Some of the "requirements" are that there are lots of options and such, because if the game were like Crash Bandicoot, a single guide would work for it all, as you only have one path to follow.

There's one additional caveat to this now, gekko - since I am no longer managing content on the website, it's going to up to its readers to decide what the next game is - mainly in that someone's going to have to step up to the plate, really take charge, and run the content website for the game. While we may all really like World of Warcraft, I'm not opening a section for it if there is no dedicated individual who wants to run the show here.

With the general lack of interest shown in running the Diablo II section, I'm not confident that such a thing will occur!

Actually, I wouldn't mind a Jarulf-like guide to the inner details of that game. Exactly how long do you actually need to rest when you get dysentery? Just how much more prone to sickness do you get with a faster trail pace? :D

Rest when you get dysentary? Pah! You're too soft on your traveling companions. Just set pace to grueling and set rations to meager. That'll teach them to complain! :P
