Diablo3 is an online game...Diablo3 is an online...Diablo3 is an online game....
this is the first time i'm playing a single player campaign game that requires constant internet connection....
i know you guys said the game will be lagless...but somehow i doubt it...we'll see in few more days...
and regarding the solution towards this latency issue by subscribing tunneling/vpn - is NOT a solution for me. i'm used to playing a single player game offline that doesnt require me to pay anything extra to enjoy besides the electricity bill..so paying a monthly fee to pay a single player campaing is a no-no to me.
i read there will also be server maintenance/downtime??? this gonna be bummer for me....i'm not sure how long it will be down...but somehow it just reminds me of Wow Tuesday blue...(when the server is down for maintenance)
of course, we can change server region when its down...but if i only have one character created and play till max level. i am then 'forced' to create another character at a different server just to avoid this downtime...which sucks for me...
DRM or those sort of stuff never really affected me so far - coz i dun install the game in many PCs nor have i tried to install it multiple times due to hdd crash or whatsoever...but to me...constant internet connection is some sort of DRM as well....and i hope i doesnt affect my gaming experience.
it's GOOD thing i guess as it combat against piracy but it just bring us user further away from totally owning a game...as what i read in a PC Gamer mag, the license we own nowadays for a game...is just a license to authorize us to play it. NOT owning it like it used to be....
sorry for the long story...just wasting my time here while waiting the arrival of Diablo3...
