Don't get me wrong, the story was great and very different.

It's just...I don't know, I guess it was sort of like easy mode?

1~60, completed hell/inferno, without dying once.

I remember in D2, dying at LEAST once or twice, due to the enemies always being immune to my main skill/spell, due to bad luck I suppose.

I may or may not replay it shortly, as a different character. I suppose a witch doctor is just way too powerful?

Edit:

Another thing I wasn't keen on, though, was not being able to allocate my own stat points. I miss that about D2. I made a MELEE SORC in D2. Why? Because I could ;) 18k~20k one hand damage, ftw.

Syncing offline data to online would create hackers. If you've ever played Diablo 2 on Open BNet, you know what happens! People will create hacked characters and use them to gain a huge advantage, including selling items that they didn't even find, but created with a cheat.

A single player mode would be cool though, not that I would play D3 again, but the user wouldn't have to deal with any lag while playing by themselves.

White rings and such.. haha. Yeah, it definitely would be nice if there was a way to produce an offline game so that there's no way to hack the online version.
 
I just needed to share my thoughts on D3, (note these are coming from a D2 addict):

Diablo 3 looks great, is fun to play, has amazing sound effects (try to play witch doctor without smiling), but in the end of the day is not up to "Diablo/Blizzard" quality.

Did the lead designer never play diablo 2!? The beauty of D2 is the play cycle:

Make a new character-> rush them-> experiment with the skill tree -> gain cool looking items -> fight cows -> Get to hell and decide to make a new character -> start over.

By not having a skill tree and removing all incentives to remake the same type of character, the designers failed to make a diablo.

(Still is a fun game, but has the quality of an EA title)
 
I think D3 looks like crap. The graphics look old for its release date. 2D graphics are wonderful, especially in an isometric perspective. I dont remember sound details when i was playing, but i still remember the sound of gold dropping on Diablo 2. And opening a Chest. And the sound of a wooden mace dropping to the floor. And of course the famous Tristam music.

Certainly not Blizzard quality. It felt like something <insert greedy game studio here> rushed out the week before Christmas.

Diablo 2 wasnt all about rushing and cows though. I remember playing my first character on Closed BNet (a Warrior). It was so much fun, even before i learned about cows and what rushing was. Rushing and Cows is where D2 became an addiction to me. As well as magic finding, before Enigma was created.
 
*crickets*

Yeah... still haven't played it again. I dunno, just didn't have the same appeal. Clearly I'm not alone feeling this way.

Anyone know if your characters can expire, like in D2?
 
I was a serious D2 addict, played a lot in college.

I have D3, I like it. It's not the same game as D2 tho. :(

I think Blizzard did what they thought necessary to make D3 a stand alone game, not a large expansion Pac for D2.

My .02 and I continue to play when I can find time. :)
 
Bought this game since i was a D2 fan back in my college days. I play occasionally but now that I have a 9-6 job and a wife, not too much time to spend on this game for me. Still a great game though.
