Diablo 3 General/Gameplay Discussion - Page 6

I've never played any diablo games before, but fuck me dead after browsing the official site, and watching the video, i want to play it!

from previous experience, was diablo 2 a "pay by the month" game like WoW, or was it like starcraft where you just buy the game and bang, away you go?

Man, this is just bloody awesome, because as a WoW player, I wasn't really impressed with the latest updates/news for WotlK.

No monthly fee's for diablo 2. Expect the same for D3. You will probably find that the game wont have many updates apart from an expansion though.

Gee's, sounds like them wow players have been conditioned to think games with online play are "pay by the month"

I do so love how people tar all wow players with the same brush continually.

Yes, Blizzard tells me how to think!

Dupes didn't ruin D2. People running bots 24/7 did... You bot users should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Yeh no shit. Was awesome to come home to find your account hacked by koreans and all your shit gone too.

I hope they ban you from playing D3

I know what you're saying sundrifter...
i give $15 you give me banana?

i've said it before and i'll say it again:
i'll happily pay for anti-cheat tools, updates, in game support.
Yes, it could have been done better in WoW but...
and it wasnt wow that started the whole pay to play online....

I think the no-pay-to-play attitude for SC and D2 is what keeps people playing it. I personally would have never gone back after the first time if I had to pay $10 a month. Instead however, it's free and old accounts are deleted after 9 months. Sounds pretty fair to me.
