Diablo 3


well....that's that! was a lot of fun imo. i managed to max lvl all the classes by the time it was over, got to play around with the artisan/blacksmith, got to play co-op about 5011 times. only thing i missed out on, was hardcore mode, first time i tried it, i somehow managed to die over those money throwing trolls, and when i tried playing hardcore couple hours ago, it wouldnt let me play hardcore, only regular. only died twice during the whole beta, and both times were with wizard.....so i guess that rules out that class for me, but i always knew Demon Hunter would be the only choice for me, I just wasnt sure if i'd pick the male, or the female...still arent...good game! highly looking forward to it
 
Yeah the game is great co-op.. Played every class, but didn't get time to kill the Skeleton King on my Monk or Barbarian.. Have to say I love every class too.


@Notaz thanks for the Wine info.. I had to slum in Windows this weekend :-/
 
This time tomorrow my copy will have arrived (and no work yay!) & whilst I wasn't really beside myself before, I have to admit to feeling a little giddy now.


I don't know about the rest of you, but I've been actively avoiding any media/previews & know next to nothing besides the character classes & a brief glimpse of the art style.


What's you're hope/fear for the game, what character class will you explore first.. are you even bothered..?

It was in the Mail today. :D Package right next to me and DVD already in the PC. Sadly, the installation is not possible before 5PM here... playing the game starts at Midnight, I'm ready. ^^
 
Alright everybody, let's do this.....


LEEEEEROOOOY....JEEEENKIIIIINNSS!!!!


spam join requests til next week
 
Very nice game so far, I've played now a couple of hours. No login problems today and everything runs smooth. My buddy already gave me a bunch of good equip, he is a little bit more advanced in D3 than me. I guess I will be busy with D3 for a long while. :D
 
if only they could keep the servers live....loving the game though, as expected
 
Damn UPS.. it's almost 6pm here, it's been out for delivery since 6am.. I really had to get the collectors edition didn't I.

What's the consensus so far..?


I'm having a blast (and have only been unable to login once!) I like the right/left click main skills & four 'hot skills' decision, seems to speed up the gameplay considerably (at least from what I remember of Diablo 2) I also like the fact that there's a cool-down with potions & you can't just spam them.


I'm a bit surprised that you only have 2 camera levels, and the visuals (not the 'artstyle') in my opinion are underwhelming & the lack of customisation doesn't help either (Torchlight 2/Grim Dawn both look better imho)


I'm currently playing as a Wizard as I thought it's probably one of the 'easier' classes with plently of skills to keep the beasties at range.. still fairly easy to get your ass handed to you though, if you're not paying attention.

To me if there was more camera levels it just add another layer of distraction to the game.. having two in Diablo 3 doesn't really do much as it is and honestly I don't think it's really needed.


I'm content with visuals, honestly I really was impressed with them. However, I can't compare since I haven't played Torchlight 2 or Grim.. Why settle for anything but the real deal.

this game freaking rules, it's monstrously hard, especially the further you get in the game, not even on hard yet, let alone inferno! It's absolutely stunning scenery, graphics and animation are just superb. It's crazy chaotic fun, it's crazy amounts of loot, not a grind or a chore. Great story, epic battles, awesome cutscenes. Multiplayer match making is the shit. Tremendous replayability.


I also have to mention... I'm a grown ass man, and I litterally got "yelling outloud scared" several times (OMG!! OH SHIT RUN! HALP!!!) no other game has had that effect on me since I was a child. That's gotta say something good for this game....


The only complaints I really have are minor ones


-server maintenance sucks, game went down about 5-6 times today for about 5-10 min each, this should be fixed soon I'm hoping.


-only 4 players in game at once


-no offline play (biggest complaint, but understandable due to piracy and item hacking)


I was a insanely big diablo 2 fan and had uber high hopes for this game, and almost unrealistic expectations... and I have to say it has met and exceeded my expectations in every possible catagory


bottom line though, if you are even thinking about getting it... get it... I'll personally give you your money back if you don't like it... it's that good.

ya... I don't really have that kinda money... but it is a pretty fantastic game

;)
 
game is truly amazing. only reason im here is because servers are down again for an hour
