Cant wait for MP stuff to get into SP (hope I will have mood to try playing a bit).

Rare affix pool changes + reducing time for farming shrine crafting alone is big for me

Cool. But compared to unique/spell/oskill rework this just a bunch of gimmicks and removal of heroic shields (needs a special mention).

HYPE!

I dig the in-game map reveal, and corpse changes. Would be nice if your merc stayed alive too so he didn't bug out, but that's not terribly important.

How is this launcher going to work with Linux? Currently D2 works perfect with Linux. Will we be able to run the game without using the launcher?

The launcher is currently on a beta phase. If anything goes wrong, we'll simply provide the files as we have done before, with the only difference that there will be more than one file and it will necessarily require 1.13c.

What some peple do not seem to understand is that this announcement tackles "Core changes" those are extremely valuable in order to deliver new content. If you came here to find a patch changelog then it is obviously a dissappointment for you!
Anyway those are great news :)
