I've been playing the beta for a around a month now and the first couple of minutes had me sold and I pre-ordered from Amazon for -ú35 including guaranteed delivery on release day.
I think it's superb and unlike diablo 2 it doesn't have a lot of pointless skills and abilities, way too many rose tinted glasses for diablo 2 if you ask me.
Changing skills on the fly and experimenting with diff builds looks good to me, and yes "IT'S A BETA", I know some of you here are saying people use that as a de facto response in the argument over the game but it's true, that is exactly what it is.
So wait till the final release, and lets be honest diablo 2 was a cake walk until you hit duriel on normal difficulty and even then he was still beatable he just came as a shock after the effortless walk through on the previous levels.
There's also a dev interview where they were laughing about people complaining about how easy the beta is and they were saying "wait and see" they'd been playing it on the harder levels and made no secret of how much of a challenge it was.
It will be enjoyed for its single player but it will live or die by it's multi-player.
You don't like it? don't buy it.
Rocket science it isn't, bloody good fun it is. |

Hi-res Diablo 2.
D2 multires.
That said it wont let you on battlenet with multi-res as it's seen as a map hack of sorts, currently playing thru as a necro, level 35 atm, I still stand by the rose tinted glasses statement. |

It just seems dumbed down because it doesn't have the amount of skills you were offered in Diablo 2, which if we're honest most were ignored in favour cookie cutter setups, Necro's with skeletons and blood golems, groups of Paladins doing boss runs with healing auras etc.
D III is offering a less cumbersome and actually more interesting choose on the fly system which I think is going to work very well, of course it's all subjective but I've been playing the beta for a few weeks now and I'm still playing D2, I like it and that's why I've jumped in and pre-ordered.
As for you Alpheis you were told repeatedly how crap SWTOR was going to be but you still bought and played it, before finally realizing what we'd all told you.
YOU CANNOT HAZ OPINION. ;P |
