First of all - thx for reading my thread. I dunno if this thread in the right place.
Some of my friends asked me to buy D3 and join them - but they told me to read some reviews in D3. From what i see, there are more bad review then good one.

Because i can see some active D3 player in this subforum, so i want to ask one general question:
Why would you recommend ur fren to play/quit D3?
I just looking for some opinions - cause i really want to play D3 smile.gif

I like to play online games btw.

How about answer the question. I dont say i dont like it.
I want to see opinions of D3 player.

U dont buy thing first & sold it when u dont like it.

U ask for opinions first, then decide to buy the things or not.

it'll be good if you know how to manipulate the gameplay
best thing is AH/RMAH flipping icon_idea.gif
i got lotsa profit already.. brows.gif

for me, i don't really care bout the complaints / whining from noobs coz

1. i can play till Act 4 Inferno (SOLO/INFERNO) without any problem
2. gold is easy to get when u got 2-3 other account doing the 'dirtyjob'
3. RMAH is there for u to abuse laugh.gif

play smart.. u will love the game.. laugh.gif

Co-op games fren end up fighting each other because :

1) Friend join with low MF
2) Friend clear speed too slow, slowing down farm speed
3) Friend gameplay not pro, hit goblin when fighting elites

If you dont mind replaying the same content with little changes for hundreds of times, Diablo 3 might be your game.

The gameplay is really good, as each class plays very differently. Some of the enemies are quite fun to fight against, except Elite packs for me.

Thx for the opinions especially DrLaboo`s.

Many of the reviews were comparing D2 with D3.

But from some info i read, when the first time D2 is released, much more worse, but Blizzard keep improving them till D2 become a gaming legend. Correct?

+1
the actual game is worth only a few days of playing. then you have to at least repeat it 3 times for 3 additional level of difficulty to "finish" the game in a sense. inferno requires you to buy high end stuff in the auction house else it will be almost impossible to proceed so you will spend hours upon hours of repeating the minuscle amount of contents in the game for gold/items.

The Goblin is this HUGE monster that blocks off everything on your screen. When a goblin appears, I can't see anything on my screen except the goblin.

Diablo 3 truth : The Goblin that manages to teleport away ALWAYS has that 1200 DPS 1H weapon you are after.

yup, 28/8 guild wars 2 will release

hmm, Diablo3, the best part is before lv60, and the source of motivation to play it:
1) You can earn some good USD if you get good drops.
2) Lot peoples still playing, especially if you like co-op game.
3) The moment you see some gold items drop on ground, the gamble feeling is addicting.
4) Elites make you hate them so much, you swear to chop them down like veges.

Goblin is da REAL game. Nothing else matter except to kill those little critters! rclxm9.gif

It's basically a little critter with a bag of goodies (gold, loots, etc..) that will run around in circles, towards enemies, etc.. and will start teleport away if you don't kill it fast enough.

I can tell you, if 100 people are complaining, then 10,000 people are playing the game.

becoz in this 100 people, >50% are still playing while complaining.

why? because it is 1 of the hottest game.

When people ask you dont play, mean they are preventing you to be their direct/indirect competitor in RMAH. What if you joined, and get imba item, they will jealous, cz they can't get anything nice.

that's when they keep whinning, whinning.

Diablo3 is like a Casino...u go in there wanted to win...and u most probably enjoy the game and excitement of winning (a loot)...just dun cry on your way out when u've spent hundreds of hours and not winning anything useful at all....

but u know u'll be coming back for more at the end of the day once u've collected back ur dignity and patience...

First of all - thx for reading my thread. I dunno if this thread in the right place.
Some of my friends asked me to buy D3 and join them - but they told me to read some reviews in D3. From what i see, there are more bad review then good one.

Because i can see some active D3 player in this subforum, so i want to ask one general question:
Why would you recommend ur fren to play/quit D3?
I just looking for some opinions - cause i really want to play D3  smile.gif

I like to play online games btw.

This game is full of Shit. No offense to all Diablo 3 fanboys. This is just my personal opinions on this game. If you want to flame me, I don't give a Shit.

First of all, this game has terrible graphics even on maximum settings. We all know that Dota 2 and Heroes of Newerth have better graphics than this game. But if you're not concerned about the graphics, whereby your main priority is the gameplay, Diablo 3 might be the game for you.

Secondly, initial lag gets annoying everytime you start playing the game. You'll initially get either a red or yellow bar indicating that your ping is high. I always get around 600 - 1000 ms ping whenever I start the game. After few minutes, it will turn green and I'll get around 275ms on US servers. However, the initial lag is serious. No joke. You can "teleport" around 5 times in 2 seconds.

Third, hackers. Too many hackers out there trying to steal your items and golds. There's no point in buying the game and you always feel insecure. Yes, I know there's such thing called the Blizzard authenticator. But you need to have a smart phone (@ Android iOS) to access it. Anyway, if your Diablo 3 password is reused for other accounts like Facebook, you'll get hacked more easily.

If you want to play Online Game, wait for GW2 next month, or The Secret World now.

D3 is a SOLO game, the online connection are required for DRM (piracy prevention) and RMAH (real money action house)

90% in game time, you wanted to play alone.

Chat box?
Diablo 3 has the world WORST chat box system in game.

Party Play?
No exp gain increase, flatted MF/GF, mobs hp double up.

Great game as a standalone title? Yea, I'll give you that.
Game of the Year? Come on...that's stretching it a bit far.

I do agree on this, there doesn't seem to be any factors to encourage party play. In fact, the current climate actually dissuades me from wanting to team up.

I wouldn't recommend to my friend, it get bored too fast, at least for me.
Maybe I'm more suitable to games like Skyrim.

Gameplay aside, Blizzard is screwing up the game in each patch.

party play pre-lvl 60 is still ok as sometimes u need tank if u're playing dps class and if u're a tank u need dpser in your party.

upon reaching lvl 60, u will try to solo first. and when u found out its hard for u to solo, u try to party. it'll pull u through until a certain point where u know u have to make a decision. to farm gold or to farm items.

if u have crap GF/MF, u will want to find ppl with good GF/MF to party with BUT ppl with good GF/MF invested a lot of money and time to get those gears. partying with a person with low GF/MF doesn't seem like a good idea for your gold investment since the person with high GF/MF would reap more benefits from solo-ing and it takes longer to kill the mobs since the HP doubled up already.

i still do party with my friends and we're at act 3 now, and we facing a brick wall. when that happens, we go into farming mode for better gears and we will party together again to see if we can break through the wall.

Game of the year my ass.

It is the most overrated game this year because the game has not much to offer, other than playing the same content again and again on different characters and difficulties.

Play with friends always the best - but not with friends that treat game world like real life.
For example, asked u to online, when u didnt on he/she wont talk to u for days
For a newbie - what class would u guys would suggest for me?

good graphic but it is very sad that blizzard has lost its way (making profit of game title that is not purely created by them).. as far as 'game of the year' goes, nah it should be 'overrated game of the year'..

back in the days, Diablo 1 is created by Blizzard North then just before the release of the game, Blizzard BOUGHT Blizzard North.. after the critical successful of Diablo 1, Diablo 2 and Diablo 2 - Lord of Destruction is still developed by Blizzard North Team until there was a huge controversy within the company.. Blizzard North Team left the company for good and now they created another company known as Runic Games (the creator of Torchlight 1 and Torchlight 2) (this explained why the gameplay of Torchlight is quite similar with diablo games)..

In all, basically D3 is CREATED by greedy matafuker Blizzard employee NOT BLIZZARD NORTH TEAM.. it is a different team.. that is why the changes between classic Diablo (D1 and D2) with D3 is so huge significant..

As for the controversy, u can wikipedia Blizzard North for more details..

its called condor, and before blizzard "bought them over", diablo NEVER EXIST. please get your facts straight.

if no blizzard, no blizzard north, no diablo.
condor may have been a no-body, we will never knew.

also, saying it is not made by blizzard because another division (which is haha, called blizzard 'north') made it, is as retarded as saying battlefield series is not made by EA but by DICE because DICE is under EA. (in this case publisher/developer relation)

ohh i just realized that my bad.. however what i am trying to say is that the team behind the game development.. for blizzard there will be several teams example starcraft team, warcraft team and diablo team.. when the whole diablo team quitted, blizzard asked other team to continue make diablo games which changes the landscape of the game.. just like battlefield is under EA sport.. if whole battlefield team quitted, EA asked maybe FiFA team to make battlefield games.. it really changes the whole game.. know what i mean?

the whole team didn't quit'ed (lol quitted, sorry english nazi kicking in), there are still blizz north people in blizzard's staff list or even working in the diablo3 team. (eg: good ole wyatt cheng!)

also, people come and go in a company, you're delusional if you staffs/teams (or even companies) last forever.

the whole issue isnt even due to (for the most part) people/teams leaving.
its blizzard trying to cater to too much crybabies (be it premature release of the game, nerfs/buffs that are towards the masses where most of them dont even know wtf they want)

Phuck cares about Blizzard North.

Honestly speaking, I didn't spend more than 200 hours on D1/D2/LOD.
I completed TorchLightI two years ago. I think I spent less than 100 hours on TorchlightI.
I still kept the save game as there were rumors that there would be Torchlight expansion. It seems it never came.

I have already spent 400 hours on D3 now. And more hours to come.
