Game is a lot tougher than what people were saying, they were right dont judge it by beta, even some parts of A1 are frustrating the hell out of me.

I'll be honest here.. i haven't played the game, but from what I've gathered of normal mode isn't calling people who thought it easy "noobs" like a pot calling a kettle black?

Yes cause they were basing it off of 30-45 of a mini boss of act 1, so obviously there are noobs since they are new to gaming and dont know how gaming works.

noobs?  Brand new game and its straight to blizzard unpleasant  antisocial trash talk.

Well I just finished Act 2 and never even came close to dying. Not sure what difficulty ur talking about.

WoW players distorted the word noob, now its just an insult, not what it used to mean in the EQ days.

Actually the first Part of Act 1 is easier than the beta. I don't find normal mode after the Skeli King about on par of what it should be. It isn't all that hard however.

Now if Blizzard would allow us to play the game when we want not when they let us.

Finished the game on normal in about 22-23 hours of gameplay.  Died about 10 times maybe. Mostly at 1 boss. (not diablo) wont get into more details no spoiler crap etc... anyway

not bad, awesome movies and story but TOTALLY dissapointed on how short the game (story) is.

Seriously what the hell did they do so many years? what a freakin joke... I know quality>quantity but this is retarded.

I didnt even rushed the game. 2 days of play I enjoyed the scenery, read EVERY quest and conversation with every NPC, vendor w/e. all there is. killed all the mobs, explored all zones etc.. didnt skip anything. 

Not even 30h of gameplay.. from so many years of production and unlimited funding..

Too short is just being kind.

Wasted 50 euros. wont buy any expansion thats for sure.

Most game main plots don't offer more than 10-15 hours of gameplay. However you beat the game on difficulty 1 out of 4, you have a lot more gameplay to go. However if all you were interested in was the story, sorry that isn't what Diablo games are about at their core.

I find Normal to be for the most part easy, some parts provide little trouble.

When you get the chance play with the harder setting's.

It really makes the game more fun to play and more engaging.

Yeah I know its about the replay value and getting better items. I played on normal cause it only lets you that way.

You have to play the entire game 4 times for each difficulty which is stupid but w/e. Normal is too easy anyway. still

you are forced that way. I dont see enough content for the price. Should have been 25$ tops.

This sort of thread is always taken over by people posing anyway..."if your experience was different from mine, u must sux0r"...and subsequent yardstick measurements of e-cred.

OPs use of the word 'noob' could hardly make it worse that the irresistable temptation of the general subject matter.  Just magnifies the speed of the thread going in the can.

THat's because you don't play in a party? We are playing the 4 of us in party and we died quite a few times in Act 1.

I noticed group play was made ALOT harder from beta.. lol. I almost died once in cathedral to a nightmarish group of hulks.. that was rough.  I like it though, more fun in group play. Way easier solo though.

This is true- The more people in the group the stronger the monsters are.

Playing solo on normal I really dont think many will die. ( Maybe a few times)

Well, in an interview they did say "normal mode is the tutorial".

It's a hack n slash game, how much brain power does it require that a "tutorial" is needed?
