i have very little faith in these type of review, mebi just me, i dono.
but we all know nothing beat personal experience.

just like how much ppl told u tat milk is good for ur health, but some like milk, some dont.
.....no the milk example is not suitable in this case.

ok, take it this way, its like how ppl support Justin bieber, some support him ,some dont, get what i mean? tongue.gif
and no , i dont support him....

i play D3, and no it sxxks, yet i still try to make my self into liking it, clocked few hundred hours for both monk and wizard, but i fail. for some reason , D3 is not as fun as D2 or even D1, mebi this is life process, the aging stuff or something, i dono.

yes, mebi i cling to the pass too much , i dono, but to me, this d3 does not feels right, not at all.

gratz to those that found them self enjoying the game, too bad for me then.

but u do know that is some kind of candy tactic, right?

but still , i dont really care how much candy blizz put into ROS to lure player bac, BUT, my point is, the overall game mechanical/design/watever is too plain, too swallow. i cannot feel the deepness of the game ,its not there , not at all. and heck it doesn't even feels like blizzard standard (minus the opening and ending cinematic , that two IS blizz standard alright...)

and, yes, playing this game make me feels like eating fast food.

mebi u might think "dude! try ROS 1st then talk" .... ROS ? no, sorry.
i'll just park here and wait , mebi someone will agree with me and saying the same stuff for ROS, i dono.

(above all ,purely my opinion, dont shoot me plz...)

I played D1 during my 1st year of university.
I played D2 during the last year of university.
Never stopped playing Diablo during my Uni years.

D1 or D2, give me free + monetary reward now I also no want to play. laugh.gif
The graphic is so horrible by today's standard.
The synergy of skills so time-machine old school until beyond comprehension.

See it for yourself.
You seriously think D1/D2 fun? hmm.gif

Torchlight 1 and Torchlight 2 are very D1/D2 alike.
Just another big hoo-haa but no where to go and forgotten Diablo 1/2 wannabe.

Where is Torchlight 1/2 now?
Let the result speak for itself.

See the synergy of skills and gears of D3 vanilla.
Look at the health and fury restoration through skills and gears.
Good old ole' weapon throw/whirlwind/HOTA hybrid build.

So much fun to play. Whacked Ghom until it vomitted ice cubes and accepted the iced bucket challenge.
(Ghom eventually surrendered and donated 820 D3 gold to ALS).
So much win. You won't get that in D1/D2. tongue.gif

then the one that changed is U, not the game right?

is D1D2 a great game? yes it is. at least im quite sure of it.

why ? when the time D1 and D2 came out , they are ground breaking, innovative, one of the kind.
player will say "wow ! i never tot that ARPG can like this ! this is the 1st time ever such awesome skill system ! etc etc etc". it was so huge and success that D1D2 was like a benchmark to their genre...
and very true, many diablo wannabe game hehoha wanna be like diablo game but non near them....

D1D2 was use to be awesome , and we all agree on that. it was obsolete due to majority cannot accept the outdated graphic, not because its sxxk.


now, is D3 a good looking game? yea i think so , at least its 3D now.
but is D3 a great game? well, i not sure.

look at D3, compare to the recent ARPG release, again compare back to what have D1D2 achieve, and tell me, what you can find in D3 that is awesome/innovative/groudbreaking/one of the kind, other than just the some how pretty 3D graphic.

well at least if some1 ask me, i cant answer them the above question. mebi ppl here can tell me....
so far what i can see bout people talking bout the good of D3 is : its in 3D graphic , and "wow! look at my 4 digit play time!!" (no offence)...

note : i'm not here to judge D3, i'm not in place to do that. above all is just a piece of my mind/my ranting, thats all. so feel free to comment on it.

It is not only looking better.

The beauty of the game is the synergy of skills and gears.
Combination of skills and gears for your offence and defence.
Show you another old CM Wiz video.
Look at the combination of offensive and defensive skills.
Look at how the health and resource are being restored.
It is all about synergy of skills and gears which you never had in D1/D2.
It was so much fun to play.

Yep, for ROS there are much more playable build for different difficulties. Of course, for Torment 6 not many builds are viable. But if you're playing for fun and not gear grinding, I'm sure you can find time to play other builds on easier difficulty.

It's funny to see ppl even comparing it to D1, it's akin to comparing wolfenstein to call of duty.

D1/D2 is no doubt good but they are of a different era. If D3 were to be like D2, they might just make an expansion on D2. The whole idea is to have a different style of gameplay. D2 IS NOT like D1. Why wanna compare D3 to D2? What's the logic?

Hi guys, im looking for some quick answers. Will appreciate it.

1. As of this time, is the game worth a purchase? I downloaded and played the demo yesterday, tristram area. seems to me like this one the map is a lot more linear than the first 2. mostly a tight path to follow before reaching the destination. Used to be we get to explore huge area.

Thoughts? Is the overall experience (map,skills(can you even level up your skills? synergize them?),stats) been simplified compared to D2?

2. What is the best method of buying this game? Getting the hard copy at games store or get it from Diablo official site?

3. Once I purchased, downloaded and installed, what happens in the future should I reformat my machine?
How is the backup like? I can't backup this like other games can I ? So just backup the D3 folder?

4. Even single player mode I need to be signed in their server. How reliable is their server? I do not wish to pay rm1xx and be at their server's mercy (not able to sign in, laggy etc.)

5. May be silly question but, what happens if someday Blizard decides to shut down all the servers. Does that mean I can no longer play the game I purchased?

Thanks guys.  nod.gif

1.Not worth the purchase. It's gonna waste all your time and no end game. End game = waste time
Maps are linear. Straight direction. Sometimes just a big round.
2. Since i dont recommend playing..better not buy it. But it online when blizzard have promotion. around RM60+ only.
3. Server all good dont worry. Same goes to your other questions. Blizzard is like king. they never shut down their games.
