At fifteen, I had the will to  learn ; at thirty, I could stand ; at forty, I had no  doubts ; at fifty, I understood the heavenly Bidding ;  at sixty, my ears were opened ; at seventy, I could  do as my heart lusted without trespassing from the  square..

Played it in beta, game is nothing special tbh. They actually made the skill system a lot more linear.

I was going to say, it looks like they took 12 years to release the same game but in isometric 3D.

not interested in diablo 3, i prefer diablo 2 by the looks of it

This. I got in over a month ago on an email I rarely use and I gave it a try last night. Not impressed at all. Torchlight 1 is better imo, 2 will be far better.

Price is sic, just like starcraft II was.

Yeah but you gotta agree that starcraft II still holds price very good.

Personally I was REALLY disappointed in SC2.   Melee is just a rushfest and the custom map support is abysmal.

Blizz IMO is just money grabbing, now that the WoW branch took over the whole company.

GO AHEAD AND NEGATIVE THIS POST BLIZZ FANBOYS


BTW I got into the beta fairly early and didn't even care, what I had heard of D3 had already turned me off-  action WoW with official RMT is what it is.  Gave the code to my friend who is the biggest blizz fanboy I know and even he didn't like it.  Then again he may not be the biggest blizz fanboy anymore cause he thinks the new WoW expansion is the same way.  Just kind of bland and trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator.  Which, WoW has been for a long time.. guess it takes some people longer to see that. 



I have no doubt it's going to be a great game for what it is, Blizzard does a lot of polish and makes good products, but they're just no longer my cup of tea.  I preferred the seemingly niche games that broke boundaries and ended up being way more complicated than you'd think.

It's a good game, I've tried it in beta but...

everything is so 2012, graphics is mix of WoW and Diablo, leveling system isn't as complex as before etc.

Start of the game is incredibly linear, later it's gets better but dunno, same shit as 12 years before. I'm kinda disappointed, I expected something new, something wild.

[Gravoth_iii]

Never tried beta but will definitely get the game, looks decent but lacks the good old diablo 2 sweet ass graphics.

SC2 sucked imho, it was SC1 but it looked fancier.

So here I was, expecting another "XYZ will kill cRPG" thread.

Consider me surprised.
