By Mike Sharkey | PC Videos | Aug 18, 2010 1:49 PM

Goodbye to the Horadric Cube. As Blizzard revealed at Gamescom today, your hero in Diablo III has an entourage. Players in the highly anticipated top-down fantasy adventure will be able to meet and befriend artisans throughout the game. Perform tasks/quests for the blacksmith, jeweler, and mystic, and they'll load up the caravan and follow you around the world, lending their skills and items as needed. And no, they won't literally follow you as you hack your way through a dungeon. Check this video from Blizzard's Diablo III presser for all the details. Sorry, no minstrel artisans are mentioned, Brave Sir Robin. See More »

The folks at Nitrome Limited have it figured out. Read More »
