its a RPG, single player or multiplayer, take it like wc3, you can play it on bn too, your character is like your hero and getting item to strengthen your hero?
co-op is played on bn with max 4 ppl, and nope, its not an online game.

i mean, every game has its own story right? why not this.

Rest assure, diablo 3 will accompany you for a long time with additional difficulty. Diablo II has been with me for 9 years 

if u r buying the game chances r it won't be SP alrd
Coz you gotta be online to even play SP, y not play with frens then

Hmm I just decided to make a US account for Diablo 3 since even if they fix the SEA price it will still be 90 SGD = 72 USD. It's 60 USD for US accounts. Pro-tip, you can use an email address alias to make another account that sends email to the same address.

lol I have to use paypal to pay for it because otherwise my credit card won't match my US address and it probably will fail

The game itself is probably around 12-14 hours of gameplay time. This is coming from the beta which took around 1-2 hr to finish depending on how much exploring you gonna do and blizzard did say that the available beta gameplay is 1/3 of the way into Act 1 out of 4 Act..

After you have finish the game first time it till be all farming and repeating the same content in harder and harder difficulties, Blizzard has also announced that there will be 4 level of difficulty Normal, Nightmare, Hell and Inferno. In the last difficulty mode you might wanna have friends playing with you else you gonna spend a lot of time dying...Blizzard has guarantee us the difficulty between Hell and Inferno is quite a huge gap..

Also as with all of Diablo series, all the dungeon maps will be random, what this mean is you will never find the dungeon having the same layout every time you run through it, even the mobs spawn will be random. One time the entrance to dungeon level 2 will be on the left, another time it will be in the center, etc etc...

depending on your play style and interest in the game, Diablo 3 might last you 2 weeks or 10years...

whatever pops out from the region, stays in the region server

Ahhh fuark. Cause I'm in Australia and the prices here is massive thanks to the exchange rate. I could get it way cheaper but it's from a UK store specialised in sending to Australia.. which then uses EU region...
Edit: But the region locks are only for the Auction House right? Not for normal play?

same here....stop playing bf 3 rdy and waiting for D3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok the top right usd balance is use for diablo 3 real money auction house. In order to use that u must first load up some money into it since every item u post, no matter u sell it or not, blizz will get a cut from it. Now in the future whatever we sold in diablo3 the real money balance, u would b able to use it for whatever blizzard is selling, for example pets and mount for wow, game subscription for wow and etc. the final stage of the real money system will allow us to withdraw from it, hence if u sell a lot, u could very well make a career out of it but this stage wont be coming anytime soon since different country has got different monetary system.

This is my understanding and please correct me if i am wrong 
Oops i forget to mention that at this moment u can buy anything in blizzard store using your credit or debit card. No restrictions. In the future u will hav options either using credit card or the in game real money currency.

yes, we will be directed to SG Blizz store. the $ is in SGD, not USD if you are in the SG site. both US and SG are using dollar $ for their currency, hence the confusion. it should be $90 if you are in SG site and $60 in US, which is quite unlikely if you registered your battle net account with Malaysia address =)

I believe blizzard will setup server for SEA region(which include AUS and NZ, it doesn't allow RMAH) to reduce lag and DC issues.

All the servers you connected to will have RMAH (only for NORMAL characters) but whatever you bought from RMAH in that region, stays in that region.

You can buy the item from the RMAH in any region and it would only be available in the SAME region that you acquired the item from. You can't sell it in another another region nor can you transfer it there.

Why not? Our copies are defaulted to the US Region.

then will you go hardcore for the "challenge"? i'd love to see you in Hell mode too

you still have to spend a lot hours choosing your skills + skill rune...you are only allowed to choose 6 skills

yeah they took out the stats part which is kinda sad but still doesn't mean the game is any less challenging...there is still a lot of 'thinking' to done

Since everyone had the same skills and stats its so balanced that i think PvP is going to be even harder.

Btw people in this forum are selling diablo 3 for like RM 180 but asiasoft is selling RM 218 is there any diff other then Asiasoft give redeemption card?

Before you condemn the new system in Diablo 3, did you read up on the developers' reasoning behind the changes?

Yes? No?

Judging from the fact that some of you weren't even aware of this change, I doubt you actually followed the debate when the system was first presented. Most of you are kicking the proverbial dead horse, and crying woe before the game is even out.

Here's a question for you all: How many of you actually played D2 til you had numerous level 80+ characters? Now tell me, how varied were the stat point distribution of those characters? Also, how fun was it to reroll a similar class again and again just to try different spells? Lastly, how original were builds after D2 matured?

All comes down to ur weapon and ur "finger" skill in PvP since no stats.

Just worry that its same as other online game, who spend the most RM for best weapon wins >.<

Oh dear... Touchy one aren't you?

Firstly, I'm well aware that Blizzard has their shortcomings. They've made games that I wasn't too happy about (Terran OP LOLOLOL). Diablo 3 isn't even out yet, and while I admit I do have high hopes for it, I can't very well 'like' something I don't yet own.

Respecting other people's opinion is one thing, but ranting away without actually understanding the issue? Here I am trying to provide more information, explaining the reasoning behind the changes made, and hopefully getting people to think a bit by asking questions. What do I get? I'm 'judging' and not 'being respectful'.

You want respect? Read up on the issue and understand the fundamental reasons behind the changes made, and then discuss it in a mature manner. Then you'll have my respect. Complaining about how things are 'casual' and 'gamers nowadays can't think' without actually providing any substance to the argument is what whiny lil kids do.

Again, complaints like 'gamers nowadays are too casual' is far from a valid opinion. Its an empty statement, plain and simple. If I come across as being annoyed, that's because I am. Page after page of people ranting about a system they barely understand and can't put in the effort to research. Are you defending this behavior? Whatever happened to having an 'informed opinion'?

Sheesh.

now my main concern playing diablo III is mouse spam...i dun wan my 3 mth xai ko within 3 weeks spam fest
