Re: Official Diablo 3 Thread

Well random drops have always been 'gambling' in that things are not certain and your luck plays a role. What they added with the auction house is another layer where you have to put in a bunch of boring work to turn your drops into stuff you can use.

Goodbye thread. You have been sweet.

muahaha

I fired up D3 and was trying to play a bit to give my Monk some time to work up some Rested XP. Only made it about 5 minutes. Might try again tonight.

Personally i prefer Diablo 2, but Diablo 3 has better graphic.

You might want to give Path of Exile a try. I heard it is more in the spirit of Diablo 2, than Diablo 3 is.

It is free to play, and you can get into the closed beta for $10. Or just wait until it releases.

Been reading a bit here and nobody seems to like this game much. Anyway, I am trying to get to house of curios for the "No stone left unturned" achivement. I have respawned field of misery about 25 times and cant find it. Is it that rare?

I'm guessing that nobody here is playing this game anymore. Right?

With all the hype that surrounded the Diablo 3 launch, it turned (at least to me) out to be a bit of a disappointment.

The game lasted about a month for a healthy part of the DSLR community. It's since been put on the back burner for the majority of us (Including Diablo's NUMBER 1 FAN... ugh uhmm). You'll find most of us playing the more solid based games such as WoW, LoL, GW2, TF2... ect.

/RIP Diablo 3

I started to play the game again with a new character that I made. Truth be told, I just don't find the game fun to play anymore, especially since I had to work so hard to get my one character to be where he is right now; the highest level of the game.

Is it me or has anyone else noticed that in order to really beat the game you practically have to use the Auction House? I remember getting to the second act of the game and I had to go back to the first act just to get some experience to even play in the second act because the second act kept handing my head to me.

Knowing how hard it was to play the game, starting out with a new character is discouraging. Yeah, I could play with my "god like" character but where's the fun in that?

Well I just reinstalled my copy right before i posted my links above.. I pretty much have to change to a different region server such as Europe's, the lag can get very out of hand, i get disconnections as i am clearing out one of the areas.. A lot of times i would be slashing away the enemies then i suddenly will notice my map is not loading, its just one giant area that is nothing and i can't walk over it or into it, few minutes later I will get killed cause my connection dies off slowly then i respawn back to town then the disconnection error shows. Its just absolutely no fun for me anymore):

Anyway my mind is on Torchlight 2 now, just got it for a cheap price on steam, great game.. When the servers go down (when i am playing by myself) I don't see any error windows pop up and remind me that the servers are down nor do i have to restart. I also notice a bunch of less lag than diablo 3, thats a huge thumbs up for me.

Support only the gaming company's that matter the most, pay for something that actually is worth buying or has a good reason for how much it's worth.

I guess I dont find anything really wrong with the game. The hack and slash aspect is what diablo was always about. I rarely loss connection when playing, and the real money auction house i'm not sure of. Heard To many problems about it, But It will work out. Thats Americas servers I'm playing on. I did Play to lvl 10 europe when I started out, but just because I didnt realize what server I was on. Have fun.

I've probably put 20 hours in over the last week.

I wanted to have some mind-numbing entertainment in front of the PC that I haven't had in a couple months.

Some high points:
•Finding /r/Diablo3Wizards and having an incredibly helpful player guide me through an Archon build & gearing
•Same player informing me the amulet I'd found the day before was a "trifecta" and worth 100m+.
•Gearing up an entire Archon build and being able to farm mp1 w/o issue at 155k dps & plenty of MF.

Some low points:
•Found three legendaries. All sucked balls.
•10 auctions at a time sucks. Now I understand why people leave tons of rares on the ground. Yes, that may be worth 250k+ but it takes up an auction slot and probably won't get bought out very quickly.
•"Show Similar Items" option doesn't carry over stats from Legendaries so you have to manually do it.

Hey Drew, there a subreddit for Demon Hunters? Pretty sure there's a better way I could be playing mine.

Not that I could find on metareddit but maybe /r/Diablo3Strategy?
