Honest Game Trailers: Diablo III
>> ^spoco2:
Haven't played it, have no intention of doing so.
I am stunned, STUNNED by the money people will spend on in game items. It baffles me no end.
And I utterly HATE the concept of Freemium games. Any game that you get for free but then need to keep spending money to get anywhere in is by definition utter shit.
I like to pay money up front for a game, then enjoy it as I see fit. I don't want a subscription, I don't want to work out if my next action will require another purchase, I just want to enjoy the game I paid for.
Shudder... hatey hate hate
This is a F2P game that costs $60.

Except it will be infected by stupid DRM.
As long as all of the AI runs locally and it's only sending statistics, at least the performance won't be damaged by a poor connection, the way it is with Diablo 3. Still, the DRM is inexcusable, but not D3 bad; they've set a very high bar.

Another game I've suddenly lost interest in. I refuse to support online-only single-player games. I await the announcement of a RMAH.
Edit: Love the tilt-shift, though.
Yeah Diablo 3 is as far as I will ever go for that arrangement and even now I'm wondering why...

EA in a Nutshell
In reply to this comment by dannym3141:
Take bioware for example. Before they were 'bought' by EA they made some of the (arguably, but almost universally accepted) best games of their particular genre. Baldur's gate 1 and 2, neverwinter nights....
Forgot about Bioware. They're on my list as well. They used to be an automatic buy, but DA2... EA is poison to game companies.
It's difficult to explain to young'uns who were raised on consoles why old-school PC gamers are so disappointed in the current state of PC gaming. This whole backlash that PC gamers are "elitist crybabies" is just so tired. I have a gaming mouse and a 104 keys, yet many PC games are designed for multiple platforms, and, unfortunately, the lowest common denominator is an ADD-addled console player with a gamepad. The result is cookie-cutter dross that is only made discernible in its genre by the textures and artwork that make up its world. I'm not saying great AAA pc games aren't being made any more, just that there are so few, and this move by developers towards always-online DRM for single-player gaming (Ubisoft, Blizzard) limits my choices even more, as I refuse to support that bullshit.
I still play through Doom and Doom2 about once a year and have a blast every time. I'm about halfway through yet another run of Diablo II, and I'm thinking I'll fire up Planescape: Torment or Baldur's Gate after that. So many excellent older games to play and replay, not to mention the large number of quality indie games being released. I don't miss Diablo III one bit.
Zero Punctuation: Diablo 3
Not playing it how Blizzard intended for it to be played is exactly why there is such an uproar over the game in the first place. Everyone wants to have their way with their Blizzard game and Blizzard ain't complying. Yeah the DRM sucks but there isn't all that much different in Diablo 3 than any other recent Blizz title. It's a scheme. Anyone who has played any of their games since War3 knows that the games are multi-tiered so what at first seems like a simple, boring, repetitive game ends up being finely tuned & crafted in the end. By ACT III on Nightmare mode it becomes apparent and if one doesn't get that far into the game then they really shouldn't be giving it a review because they should just know better from the get-go.
It's got some of the best multiplayer aspects that I've had in recent memory, running relentlessly across vast floors trying to avoid pools of Hell, or encountering impossible zombie mobs moving 50% faster than normal. It's a lot of fun. Blizzard is a different company than they were back in the day, I don't like it as nearly as much as the first Diablo, for sure... but it's still fantastic. It's still Blizzard. Great mechanics - for what it is - better art direction than most games, great sound and the absolute insanity of it on the more difficult modes where it really comes together. Yeah there are a lot of things that piss me off about D3...
I must admit it seems to me like Blizz didn't give it their all on this one... maybe so they can make sure people go back to their cash cow
The levels are barely random, what the ^%$# is up with the lag? There is too much loot like Yahtzee said, the normal mode IS too easy, nightmare & normal are light/day... don't waste our time. The art direction is great... but not as great as I'd expect from Blizz, muddy textures, accesses the hard-drive too frequently, some of those "cut-scenes" are whack, on Hell mode the random encounters are more difficult than the main quests, no in game auction house? Why the hell is that loot popup menu always there? The story is dumb as fuck. But, regardless that is what the Diablo series is - not much innovation here except in chaos and mechanics and that is good enough for me. We can't compare every Blizz game to WoW... and that is exactly why D3 is great, it's like WoW-ultralite meets Left For Dead, nothing wrong with that.
Here come the evil chickens!!!1!
This is how I play Diablo III...
EA in a Nutshell
Can you say Diablo III, IGN sure can!
>> ^Yogi:
The bribing of IGN is more accurate than anything else. IGN will hype the SHIT out of a game and not tell everyone it absolutely blows until after they've bought it (preorders and launch days). IGN gets an advanced copy and they could easily warn people about say "Spiderman" but they choose not to, because of the revenue from ads and such.

And all the people who bought Diablo III are now chanting "and now we know.... how ridiculous having to to be always online for single player is."
I've put 8 hours into the game since launch, and except for about an hour of error 37, the game has been running fine. I expected that they'll have some hiccups at launch, but the worst seems to be over. The game itself is well worth the hassle.

Some Youtube Videos Not Playing in Opera (Sift Talk Post)
I'm having this problem with embeds from youtube on every site I visit. Not all of the embeds, but 60% are not working. I have to go to the youtube page. Which requires SECONDS! How am I supposed to cope with that? Diablo III ? Oh well...
No seriously, it's a problem.
