Re: Diablo III: First Impressions cmdjing Send a noteboard - 16/05/2012 04:44:43 AM
So I know that many here are all "Torchlight 2" this and that, but well.....I'm a fan of Diablo III.

So my first two impressions....

1) The game load time was sooooooooooo very long.
2) The game servers have crashed...yet again. I haven't been able to play at all.

At least the music is nice.

~Jeordam


Managed to squeeze in about 4 hours of gameplay. Haven't been able to find a single unique yet. Did manage to find 4 rare items, all but 1 from boss fights. Was a member of the beta and it looks like drops have been nerfed since then. Loot quantity/quality is definitely low to "encourage" use of real money auction house. F&ck you Activision/Blizzard.

So, I'm curious, is there any gameplay justification for always-online? beetnemesis - 16/05/2012 02:34:55 PM 1196 Views
As far as I know it's just an anti-piracy measure. *NM* Stephen - 16/05/2012 03:17:06 PM 733 Views
There is no real justification from a user standpoint. lord-of-shadow - 16/05/2012 11:10:05 PM 1211 Views

The game industry practically views them as the same thing. So... yep. lord-of-shadow - 20/05/2012 11:39:40 PM 1054 Views
I think that it is an anti-piracy measure, however.... Jeordam - 16/05/2012 03:51:48 PM 1185 Views
That part is not a justification for single-player online though. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 16/05/2012 11:09:01 PM 684 Views
