Glad you enjoy the game. Can't say I agree. Diablo 3 has been the only PC game I believe of my entire adult life where I have gone out of my way to obtain a refund for it. It wasn't because I needed the money back either. Played the game for two weeks, had so many difficulties with it, returned it. They didn't even ask why when I called them. Just said "Ok, it will removed from your account soon and the money will be deposited into your bank account in 7-10 days. Thanks". I don't know what that says, considering I have purchased hundereds of games throughout the years. I do know that I will not be purchasing Actiblizz products anymore however ;) Have fun OP!

Originally posted by Zekiah I really enjoy what I have played of POE, but I don't get how you can say that game is good and this one is trash. I do like that attributes such as resists, attack speed, etc. are up to player selection rather than having to rely on a goddamn random loot table. That is one thing I'll give PoE over D3. Still, they're both good games far as I'm concerned and fairly similar really outside skill selections. 1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical. 2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself. 3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose. |

Originally posted by will75 Barbs are freaking animals in Inferno... once you can gear them. I was lucky to be attracted to DH from the start and lucky that I can now farm for the best stuff in the game to gear my chars. A Monk or Barb as a first char is a tough road, but my friend who is a really well geared Barb is a beast. I think I will make a Barb as my 3rd char once my Monk is geared enough to beat Inferno. I also have a 30 WD. Honestly I think I will get all classes to 60 eventually. |

Originally posted by Worstluck I think it just says the game isn't for you. I expect with so many sales there would be a ton of players not happy with it. Hell I wasn't expecting to like it this much. I thought it would be a casual between MMO type game for me and BOOM I am like a crack addict. Thanks for being cool. |

Originally posted by Wickedjelly Well, how long have you played D3? What is your highest level character? I played the sucker role and bought the silly game anyway regardless of the warning signs I saw in beta. The replay value in D3 is garbage and the more you play the more you figure this out. This has half the replay value of D2, it's horrible. Grind gold for the AH and the overpriced gear? Corpse-hop through Inferno because of ridiculous champs that could kick Diablo's a**? It's just not a good game, they dumbed it down so far that it's just a shell of what it should/could have been. The more I try to like this game, the more I dislike it. And it pisses me off. I put thousands of hours on D2, it was that addictive. D3? Garbage. "Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it.

Average at best. We waited 11 years for average. This game needs vast improvements for it to be considered great. Doubt we will ever see great from Diablo again. Blizzard North had the winning forumul aand Blizzard Irvine changed it because they wanted to dumb it down for the masses. Thatnk god for Starcraft 2, atleast they can't screw up that. |

Originally posted by Zekiah With friends help, with another class, etc. I agree it needs tweaking. It listed right in my areas for improvement. Once geared though they are animals. They just need an easier way to get gear. |

If you see no good or you see no bad in a game, chances are you are bias. |

It is a good game. People are really slow in claiming it is bad or terrible. Much like I defended Swtor at being an 'medocor' game, I'll be willing to say this game I enjoy is good but its flawed. People always have such insane dillusions of how a game should be or its bad. Its a big reason the MMO market is sliding down hill. I'll bet Guildwars 2 will end up being considered a failure no matter how well it turns out just cause people seem to be so strict on things not living up to hype.
Again, Diablo 3 is a good game. Is it without flaw? No, I can name plenty, but people who say its bad really must be spoiled by playing some crazy good games and having not seen many other 'gems' that are poorly designed and done. God forbid they play those, they might throw themselves off a cliff. |

Originally posted by ProfRed So, not really an animal then. NO classes are against those one-shot, impossible to kill champ combos. It's a joke. And the secret level? What a pathetic joke. Replacing the Cow Level with My Little Pony shows exactly what happens when your A-team leaves, ie, Blizzard North. I'll take a gander when the expansion comes and see if they finally pull their collective heads out. Other than that, it's just not worth the time. I'm glad you're enjoying your time but my guess is the more you play the more you'll dislike this game. More and more gamers are coming to the conclusion that the game just isn't very good, in fact it's disappointing. Waiting a decade for this nonsense? Whatever.

Session hijacking LOLZ!!!! I am a security expert fyi. |

Originally posted by Zekiah Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying the game is awesome. If I had to review the game I would give it a 7.0...at the most. One of the drawbacks being replayability. Because there isn't a ton there and yes...inferno should really be referred to as wtf mode. I just don't see it as being that bad or maybe I should say it pretty much ended up being about what I expected. Then again there isn't an H&S I would ever play as much as you say you did D2 so clearly you enjoy the genre a lot more than I. 1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies.

Originally posted by Betaguy You are not a computer security expert. It has been shown repeatedly that ID hijacking is occuring. Your lack of knowledge in this matter either means you are not a security expert(as you claim) or you are a schill. I have never met a "security expert" who runs no anti-virus. It goes against all industry standards. |

Originally posted by Wickedjelly There hasn't been a game of any genre that I've played that much, it was that good. So to say I'm disappointed is an understatement. They had an awesome model to work from and all they had to do was take the best from D2 and expand on it. Instead, they went the opposite direction, I don't even recognize this as a Diablo game. It's so far from what D3 should have been, it's sad. I would agree with you on the score for someone new to the Diablo series but for long time veterans I'd give it a lower score, perhaps a 6. The core of what made Diablo great is gone. They gutted what made D2 great and replaced it with generic, bland gaming. On top of the hours I put on D2, I waited ten years for this game and to get this inferior quality product goes beyond disappointment. Blizzard just isn't what they used to be. Gone are the days of quality products with the "not until it's ready" motto attached. Now it's sadly, "SHOW ME THE MONEY!". "Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it.

Originally posted by Jimmydean yeah they're usually smarter than those who get hacked... But that's just because people in most cases don't bother checking the true link in their mail box if it looks like a blizzard mail or they usually go to fishy sites and aren't really aware of the real threat... I've never been hacked nor had any of my accounts on any game/forum/website etc. been compromised so far. So saying you WILL get hacked is just plain stupid... Because, no... you won't if you know how to keep your pc and personal information safe, if you don't - well... you might get hacked... Out of my 6 friends who are playing D3 only I added the authenticator to my account... 6 of them still didn't do it and they're still intact and didn't have any issues with account...
Who cares about RMAH besides those who actually plan to use it... I'm not planing to spend a single coin on RMAH, and I probably won't even post the stuff on it. Tho, the situation right now seems like RMAH doesn't even stand a chance against gold AH, blizz will probably have to do something to encourage people to buy/sell on RMAH - and I think even then only a minority will use it.

I am not a hater I guess but I do think the game isn't worth the price tag. I grew bored within the first week and only play with my spouce and friends. Having said that we thought we would try to spice up the game and play hardcore to give us a feeling of excitement and to hit up some extra achievments. 2 of the 4 in the group lost characters last night from a lag spike. Because of this the hardmode is now ruled out for us because there is no reason to roll a character only to lose it to something that is out of your control and falls on the game itself. OP may not be experiencing any problems with the game but it deffinately isn't as smooth as some would have you beleive. Maybe with added expansions or somethign it would shape out to be an OK game but in my opinion as it stands now it is boring as hell and the lazy design outshines any of the good aspects of the game. I was hoping this would give me some fun untill my game of choice released but it couldn't give me a couple weeks of excitement. RIP Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan and Paul Gray. |

Originally posted by Zekiah Okay, I can understand where you're coming from. Sure if I was looking forward to this game as much as you I might feel the same way.

Side note: Sounds like you already pretty thoroughly trounced Diablo 3, and in less than a month. I mean 2 toons to level cap? That seems kinda fast. |
