Comment on Diablo III (Review) by Scott

I have to agree with your review!
killing Cain upset me, but since I grew attached to Leah so I was “ok” with it, then for her to die and morph into a She-demon oh wait I mean her runway name “diablo” makes me almost want to say to blizzard “really? Blizzard ….Really”. Where is the dark evil and chaotic game I used to play that had mean and bad ass enemies, and wont even get started on that #%^$# mockery of a secret level for the my little pony lovers.

I like the game but blizzard you let me down, bad. I am now currently looking forward to Torchlight II.

Comment on Can Torchlight 2 Beat Diablo 3? by Mathew

I don’t see any bias in this article. However, I bought Diablo 3 and I can say it is a pretty good game. I played the beta as well and it didn’t particularly appeal to me. I thought diablo has lost its edge looking like it came from a fairy tail world instead of being plagued by the prime evils. I was wrong.

The game has a far darker undertone as you go in deeper. Also, I loved teh old skill system and I have never found a game that has managed to recreate it. When I saw the changes to the Diablo 3 skill system, I was disappointed.. Again, I was wrong. The skill system is fresh and it brings something new every level. I remember in Diablo 2 I was trying to max specific skills such and Blessed Hammer, or Lightning. Diablo 3 basically makes a variety of skills viable. I was a fan of the Diablo 2 system but the Diablo 3 skill system is better.

However, that doesn’t mean the game doesn’t have its faults. The servers at the moment are horrendous.They pretty much go down 3 times a day since the launch. Most of you saying that the RMAH is a way from Blizzard to make some quick cash. I agree it is. What is wrong with that? Basically the game will have more support that way. I played Diablo 2 5 years after the release and the servers became unbearable. Lag would cause unnecessary deaths. Atleast this way, the support is always there. Also, don’t forget about d2jsp.They set up a fantastic forum trading site based on somewhat of the same principal. I never put in money for a game and I will continue not too. However, that doesn’t mean its a bad thing Blizzard chose to capitalize on this.

If this post swayed you to buy Diablo 3, I wouldn’t for atleast a month. The server issues will need to be fixed. The game plays great but it still has its problems. I never played Torchlight because it lacked the multiplayer aspect. That is why I will definitely pick up Tochlight 2 and hope the soul of Diablo 2 is still alive in it. Just because Diablo 3 went in a different direction, that doesn’t mean its a bad game.

sorry, i wasnt impressed with the Diablo 3 beta..i played it and i was like $60? for this? really? It doesnt even have the same hardcore brutul tone of Diablo 2, that evil gritty bloody feeling of Diablo 2 isnon existent, i guess its to entice the 8-12 yr olds and make thier parents buy it.. I felt Torchlight FELT like the real diablo but with cartoon graphics. It was an updated diablo. Diablo 3 doesnt feel like an updated diablo 2 at all. It feels like a slower , kind of bland ARPG. But it was only the demo, so who knows. NOT looking forward to waiting an hour to play games either . For a $60 asking price, i expect a LOT more than what i saw of Diablo 3.

I was born in 1994 but I remember “Santa” bought me this one year, about 1998/9 or so and it was the coolest thing EVERR!! Like you, I didn’t have a lot of fancy things as a child but one of my earliest memories was playing on this on the tiny little telly in my mam’s bedroom and it was so cool! I think I still have it in the attic somewhere, I hope I do any ways! I’m 18 and I would STILL play it if I had it lol and the Sega Genesis too
