Most people use the RMAH and claim they are the best players. Hope this helps.

There is no RMAH in hc mode.

And not all can claim to be the best player, because the best are listed on diabloprogress.com.

Simple really! Beat Hardcore(potentially MP 10-but that is not necessary) Inferno with EVERY character. There. That ought to take you at least few hundred hours(if not a Thousand).

Really, people should stop playing Normal Mode on MP 1 while yelling stuff Like "GAME IS 2 EZ!!!!" or "NOT ENOUGH DROPS!!! FFS I QUIT!!!". Gods, after all, help those that help themselves...

Ah, to each his own I guess...

Actually who says "the game is too easy"? I haven't seen that complaint at all. The only complaint is that the game is too hard (which blizz nerfs several times).

does anyone actually beat hc MP10 yet? Or better yet, solo hc MP10 uber. That would be quite amazing. I know the top dps wiz player in the world has beaten mp10 (soft core) Azmodan on a speed kill ... but 99.999999% of the player can't solo that.

What kind of valid feedback do you hope to find in fanboy&haterland?

Really, just read some reviews and take a decission based on your affinity to the game genre and setting. Nothing anyone says here is going to be a neutral, well documented answer, and even if there is a couple of those, it'll be impossible for you to pick them out from the whole myriad of pro-Blizzard, anti-Blizzard and every other gamer cell that lurks here.

I picked both Diable 3 and Star Craft 2 up on sale over Thanksgiving week.  Both have definintely been worth the money.  Diablo 3, while not a revolutionary game or anything, is still a lot of fun if you get into the standard click/loot grind.  There's a real element of satisfaction when you see a legendary drop, which makes for a great carrot.

The story isn't all that bad either, so even if you only play through it once or twice solo, you'll probably get your money's worth.

Diablo 3 is a blessing these days for people who like grinding loot.

It offers one word which NO MMORPG can offer: adaptable solo challenge on line.

MP puts it in a seperate League. Incredible fun.

Then add fast 2 second grouping tools and for those who like this: best game in many years.

I think with added PvP this is he winner for 2013 in long term play...

FU reputation grinds with boring MMO's.

D3 is far more fun than grinding in GW2, SWTOR or WOW.  I can play when I want, play hardcore if I want and always feel like I'm progressing my characters.  I'll eventually get bored, but they've done a great job of turning it into the best ARPG since D2.

Its not to bad I suppose but for someone like me who enjoys dungeon crawlers, its the weaker of the three newest dungoen crawler choice. Torchlight 2 provided me with a lot more play time and fun. Path of Exile has also provided me with fun just waiting for beta.

 

If your into the old style dungeon crawler, focused on player skill and knowledge of the game, then diablo 3 is a poor experience.

except if you liked D2 for the closed bnet servers and pvp, then TL2 is not for you (or me)

i couldn't stand open bnet and that's basically what TL2 is from what i have read, no thanks.

that said, i am still waiting for pvp in D3 and until then i likely wont play too much.

Blizzard PvP aren't that good in general.

Have you been trying to PvP in WoW, then you know what I mean

Yeh .. i would say it is the most fun combat .. including all ARPG and MMOs i have played. TOR can really learn a thing or two about combat from D3.

I definitely will play the expansion.
