| ____________________________________________ [May 15,2012 5:37pm - floatingeyecorpse ""] Uhhh Blizzard sucks man I got to play lan party style for probably about 2-3 hours today out of 8 hours spent trying. That is total bullshit. |
| ___________________________________ [May 15,2012 6:09pm - arktouros ""] i logged 4 hours since 3am, the server situation is re-goddam-diculous but i've played it enough so far to really enjoy it. |

| _________________________________________ [May 15,2012 11:55pm - my_dying_bride ""] i dloaded it last night and played today from 5pm to 1130pm with really no problems (except the foolish banner maker for multiplayer)... game kills. |
| _____________________________________ [May 16,2012 9:36am - trioxin_245 ""] I'm liking this so far, my main complaint is the way they did the skill trees. The whole pvp thing doesn't really matter since they made co-op way more fun. what's your user name MDB? mine's just trioxin245 FIND A NIGGA |
| ___________________________________ [May 16,2012 9:40am - arktourOs ""] took me a while but i like the skills, you just get every skill and you can respec on the fly without worrying about breaking your character |
| _____________________________________ [May 16,2012 9:50am - trioxin_245 ""] another thing is, why did they choose to get rid of the whole battle.net game select screen? now you just blindly click 'join game' and it finds a random game for you, halo style. stupid choice. oh and part of the challenge of diablo 2 was that you had to plan your character from the beginning, you weren't supposed to be able to just change it up on the fly, that takes away from the planning side of things which is a crucial aspect of any good rpg. anyway, co-op games are fun as hell, so off I go. |
| ____________________________________ [May 16,2012 10:01am - arktouros ""] i hear ya on both of those. i guess they make up for it with hardcore mode and nightmare, hell, inferno difficulties. THE SOUNDTRACK IS FUCKING AWESOME. my bnet name is symbyosys |
| ______________________________________ [May 16,2012 10:25am - trioxin_245 ""] it couldn't find your name. mine is Trioxin245. |
| ____________________________________ [May 16,2012 11:31am - arktourOs ""] it wants a "battletag" or bnet account name. my tag is symbyosys#1850 |
| _______________________________________ [May 16,2012 12:19pm - the_reverend ""] Need to watch videos |
| ______________________________________ [May 16,2012 1:09pm - the_reverend ""] just watched a review video.. I need this. |
| ___________________________________ [May 16,2012 1:32pm - narkybark ""] it's diablo. if you liked a previous diablo, you'll like this. |
| ___________________________________ [May 16,2012 1:33pm - narkybark ""] Also, took me about 8 hours to install, off of a DVD. Super. At least in the half hour I tried to play, it went fine, only occasional lag hiccups. |
| ____________________________________________ [May 16,2012 3:01pm - floatingeyecorpse ""] Servers seem to be up but I can't play because I have to finish up making this tape for a four day tour. I'll probably be able to rest easy when I am done and I'll end up playing until four in the morning tonight. |

This is the main reason im not playing it. Too much hand holding, care bear, mmo inspired, casual gamer bullshit from blizzard. "Oh everyone can play anything they want, everyone is the same!" Makes me kind of sad. Its too liberal. |
| _____________________________________ [May 16,2012 8:01pm - trioxin_245 ""] yea I know what you mean, but the games still there. plus, I'm already getting called a noob for asking how to do simple things, in a game thats been out for 24 hours. a whole legion of arils. |
| ___________________________________ [May 16,2012 9:46pm - Boozegood ""] What the fuck, is anyone else's shit completely fucking up in the Dahlgur Oasis during Blood and Sand? Also: [img] (Doubly annoying since I'm fucking soloing right now anyways, ugh. Can't wait to have to connect to Battle Net on shitty Iraq internet so I can play single player...FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS WHILE LIVING IN THE THIRD WORLD.) |

Its too liberal. dude you sound like fuckin sean hannity. it's a bigger and better diablo in which you still die a lot. hardcore characters have an additional brutal enemy called "lag". try it out or save yourself $60, whatever. |
| ______________________________________ [May 17,2012 11:56am - trioxin_245 ""] does anyone know why 'electrocute' (chain lighting) doesn't drain mana? is it just infinite? because THAT would be WEAK |
| ____________________________________ [May 17,2012 12:16pm - arktouros ""] only the more powerful spells drain mana. i only got a wizard up to 13. i can't get in now with error 3005. |
| ____________________________________ [May 17,2012 12:17pm - arktouros ""] yeah http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/wizard/active/electrocute signature spells are free to cast! that's so liberal! |
| ____________________________________ [May 17,2012 12:22pm - capitals ""] fuck this, I'm waiting for Diablo IV |
| ______________________________________ [May 17,2012 12:53pm - trioxin_245 ""] I don't understand why they would ever make spells that don't use any resources. I mean granted it's a weak ass spell, but still. |
| ___________________________________ [May 17,2012 1:00pm - arktouros ""] i do like not having to chug potions and buy scrolls. either everything has a cooldown or you have to fight to restore mana. |

Haha i dont mean liberal like the political term. I hate sean hannity! I thoght the demo was so fucking easy. Granted thats only on normal mode, but still would of been nice to showcase a little bit of the diversity of the mobs more. I just hate games that don't reward skill and intelligence in multiplayer. |

| _____________________________________ [May 17,2012 3:35pm - trioxin_245 ""] just used afk arktouros as stationary tank to kill boss. HE DEAD |
| ___________________________________ [May 17,2012 3:37pm - arktouros ""] hahahahahah |
| ___________________________________ [May 17,2012 3:38pm - arktouros ""] that right there is using skill and intelligence. i guess the game lets you skip ahead if you join a party - i jumped right into act 2 without beating 1 yet |
| __________________________________ [May 17,2012 9:14pm - SLAGNot ""] I'm going to buy Torchlight 2 just to spite this game, even if I don't play it. I cannot justify supporting Blizzard's design choices on this one. Too simple, too much intended cash-cow, too much straying from original Diablo. PC Gaming and gaming in general is not what it once was. Our culture has become too "instant-gratification" for my tastes. Games are too simple and too easy. I don't want my fucking hand held. I want a challenge. Capitalism has prevailed and it has hurt the hardcore gamer fanbase. I would rather play a board based game any day than play current era video games, Skyrim included. |
| ______________________________________ [May 18,2012 12:07pm - trioxin_245 ""] I'm not gonna say I disagree with you, but how are you people judging it so much without ever actually playing it? It's actually really addictive and fun, which to me is the point of a game in the first place. Definitely no Diablo 2, but still escapism at its finest. |
| _________________________________ [May 18,2012 3:32pm - sxealex ""] game is really good and i'm enjoying it. i always hated how the camera follows you around in diablo... needs rts type camera control. |
| ______________________________________ [May 18,2012 10:05pm - xanonymousx ""] whats everyones bnet name? |

| ______________________________________ [May 21,2012 11:26am - trioxin_245 ""] ^that wasn't me. anyway, being a fan of the last two diablos, I will say that as much as I am enjoying this, I really REALLY don't like the way they handled the skill trees. I mean, part of me thinks it's cool that I can essentially use any spell anytime and it will be effective, but the other part of me misses having to actually plan and build a specific kind of character (for instance, a smite paladin) as opposed to leveling up every skill evenly. Game is way too noob friendly. |
| ____________________________________ [May 21,2012 11:42am - arktouros ""] good part about the skill trees is you can find good sets of 6 skills at a time to use as opposed to 2. bad is having different permanent character builds. even worse is having battle.net kill your hardcore barbarian while you aren't even logged in. thanks blizzard. i haven't touched the game all weekend because of that. |
| ______________________________________ [May 21,2012 11:46am - trioxin_245 ""] I just don't like that you can't level skills individually. In diablo 2, if you wanted to be a fireball sorc, you leveled fireball and all the peripheral skills, and any other skills got left behind, so you had to really make sure you wanted to be a fireball sorc, cuz at like lvl 80 your other skills would basically be useless, but in this one, you just have to level up your character and the game levels all your skills every time equally. LAME. |
| _____________________________________ [May 21,2012 2:54pm - trioxin_245 ""] teleport with cooldown = 10000000000000% useless |

| ____________________________________________ [May 29,2012 12:31pm - slag is not slag ""] I'm really scraping the bottom of the barrel now, but, do any of you cool cats have a guest pass I could have? I'd like to give this a fair poke. Saw a friend playing it and it does look pretty rad. |
