I learned my lesson with Blizzard.

I'm a die-hard D2 fan and I feel that they only cut out the parts of D2 that were meaningless. You didn't have choice in your stats, you had the illusion of choice. If you weren't going cookie cutter down to the micro-stat you were a worthless broken character. Yeah you had to auto-attack... until you got your gear. Full Tal-Rasha on my summon necro and I can't remember the last time I ran out of mana. Even a Whirlwind Barb had enough MP-5 to never stop spinning, heck I even had a whirlwind assassin where I could spin constantly.

Wish I knew what features these so-called vets were pining for.

This shows a complete lack of character and critical view point. But then again, quality doesn't matter as long as you pay for the game.

That makes you a fanboy.[/QUOTE]

Actually that was a typo.   I meant D2.  One would hope that the context of my posting after that which referred only to Diablo 2 gameplay mechanics with specific examples of Diablo 2 gameplay would have lead one to that conclusion.  But hey, we can't all be that literate, can we?  

[QUOTE="tar1901"]Now to the other problems. Yea, you could make bad specs in D2, but at least you had the choice to make them.[/QUOTE]

So you agree you had the choice to fail or fall in line.  But at least you had a CHOICE!

[QUOTE="tar1901"]The hole RPG aspect of Diablo 3 is gone. Once you level up, the game does everything for you. It's not even a RPG game anymore, it's some gimped action game.[/QUOTE]

The game does... what for you?  Pick your stats?  Like most RPGs since 1995?  You choose your class, you choose your abilities, you choose your runes.  Kind of like... Diablo 2.  You choose your class, you choose your abilities.  Like do I want be a Zealer or a Hammerdin because nothing else for Paladin useful or even remotely playable.  Seems like the addition of runes and multiple ability combinations not utterly dependent on a min-maxing of specific stats has added more depth and complexity than even the most delusional D2 purist could argue against.  

[QUOTE="tar1901"]Another horrible part of D3 is that stupid always online DRM that allows you to play when the blizzard servers allow you to. In their quest for money Blizzard decided ruin the game experience. No problem, they still have fanboys that think the game is great.[/QUOTE]

Online DRM sucks, but DRM is here to stay.  You can thank pirates.  "Ruin the game experience"?  Lmao this is troll-speak.  How do you deal with real world problems if something like having to log in ruins your entire game experience?

[QUOTE="tar1901"]How do you know you are a fanboy? You play a singe player game, get lag and disconnects and you still like it![/QUOTE]

I crashed a lot in Fallout 3, New Vegas, Oblivion and Skyrim too.  Guess I'm a fanboy for looking past a game's flaws.  I've only been disconnected once since I started playing D3 and I haven't lagged yet, but then again I don't steal my internet from my neighbor and blame servers.  You're trying too hard to troll me.  Quit trolling brah.
