I know how you feel.

Diablo 3 doesnt actually feel like im playing a diablo game. The art style is still feels like water colour art which doesnt give the gritty feeling. I think Grim Dawn's art style is what Diablo 3 should look like, gritty and dark.

The spell trees are gone, which feels a bit strange to me as you get spells by an unlock tree like CoD. It is not bad, but i think Blizzard might have done it better in my opinion as it feels a little bit dumbed down. Something along the lines of Skyrim or better, Guild Wars 2 would be really nice as i think the points attribute system in Diablo 2 is seriously unsuitable for a game these days.

However, i love the physics systems with corpse flying around or some random object destroyed. The melee and range attack does feel powerful compared to the impact less attacks in Torchlight.

I think Diablo 3 has a whole, as its has trade off between traditional ideas and new ideas, just as i am expecting from a Jay Wilson project. It will still be fairly competent, at least.

Still, i do not recommend CE though, as i dont think getting CE is a good idea. Too expensive and you might overhype it yourself. What i'll do now is, get standard edition and then, pay $35 for Grim Dawn at Kickstarter.

Crate, developers of Grim Dawn absolutely nailed the art style of Diablo 1 and 2 while the effects are still fairly good. The art is terrible as the way it is now, cause they do not have full time artist. They only have 2 full time staff.

OT
OMG I'm so sold to Grim Dawn, the art and the style has juz hit D3 to the wall. $35 is way cheaper. will get it after salary release thxs for d info or i'll never knew such game.

I do miss Diablo I's can't-see-further-than-5-feet-away scariness. When I played it I was just a kid and didn't dare to enter the cathedral until my bro was around!

Been reading around the net a bit and they pretty much say the same thing as well. I guess I'll just get the standard one, and probably slap some kind of ENB mod on it. It's a shame and a bit sad really.

Here's to finding solace in TL2 and GD!

Same here as i play diablo 1 while i was kid, saw butcher will scream alredi when im alone Lolz

when I was kid, I dont have PC at home. So I go to my neighboor house to see him play only. And since 1st day I teman him, he only play whenever I was there. He dont dare to play alone.

Btw speaking of old diablo with all those small radius while in dungeon, but for diablo 3 there's no fog or anything while in dungeon rite? It onli seems foggy/mist thinggy outside, im not sure la have to ask those who have played the beta

yes, the fov radius in old diablo is much smaller, in d3 its juz less visible (blur/foggy/mist whatever).

oh achievement wipe again =3
