I'm frickin loving this game! Only downside is that the servers have been pretty unstable all night. I think this last wave of invites was pretty big. Anyone else get in?

EDIT:

How to get in the Diablo III Beta - Two Methods:

Opt-In Through Battle.net

  1. Go to Battle.net
  2. Log in
  3. Go to Account
  4. Click on Beta Profile Settings
  5. Click Diablo 3 (may be best to just do all :P)
  6. You'll have to download something for Blilzzard to download your computer's specs, but after that you are all set up. :)

Facebook Contest

  1. Go to the Diablo Facebook Page.
  2. Click on Diablo III Beta Sweepstakes
  3. Fill out your info and you'll be good to go!

Don't have Facebook? There's an alternative!

  1. Go to their Alternative Method of Entry page.
  2. Fill out your info

If you submit through both the Battle.net Opt-in and Facebook and/or Alternative Method of Entry, you double your chances of an invite!

Personally, I can't give much yet. The servers have been very unstable and I may have like 90 minutes of gametime and even that was weird with a lot of enemies disappearing and reappearing with lag issues. Hopefully, it'll become more stable in the coming days and I can give better insight in how the game plays. :)

I am kind of jelly, I just played Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 for the first time they were actually pretty fun. Diablo 1 was actually scary, Diablo 2 wasn't really, but Diablo 3 looks like WoW, but still kinda want to play.

I am more interested in Torchlight 2. I look forward to giving them my money vs giving Blizzard any more of mine.

Too bad for you. Torchlight 1 was pretty damn mediocre and Torchlight 2 will only be slightly better because of co-op that should have been there in the first place. Diablo 3 will "crush" Torchlight 2. Doesn't stand a chance even at its lower price point.

Sorry if I sound ignorant here, but how hard is it to get an invite? I wouldn't mind having one, but only because I feel Blizzard will push back the release date a few times after it's set.

It's official. I'm addicted. I just played 5.5 hours of the beta (3 with barb, 2.5 with monk). I really want to start a Wizard run now, but my eyes won't let me.

Too tired to give full impressions, but this is how I sum up Diablo III: it fixes everything that was wrong with DI and DII, but keeps everything that made it fun. I cannot wait for this game to release.

Same here. Seems very exclusive.. considering I got 2 beta invites to SW:TOR. Different companies but still... Come on Blizzard. :P

If I ever got a beta invite, I would attempt to trade for it on the Steam forums. Would probably get some desperate sod willing to trade over $60 worth of games for it. Similar to DOTA 2 keys.

Whats so great about diablo III? I've never played any of the installments and it looks like titan quest to me.

Having played all 3 games, Diablo I, II, and TQ, I will say that while TQ is a decent game, it in no way compares to the Awesomeness of Diablo.

It has an insane amount of content and gameplay is amazingly fun, no other games gives you as much excitement when hacking through a sea of enemies (literally). I can't stand the graphics, it actually makes me sick, but if I get into multiplayer with some friends I can't stop playing, it's that good. Diablo is all about the insane amount of loot and the gameplay, hyping Diablo isn't like hyping CoD or BF 3, it's like hyping any of their games, Warcraft, Starcraft, they earned the "hype" and they deliver value for your money.

Actually yeah, two main things that stand out more in Diablo than TQ is Atmosphere, and the music (which helps create the atmosphere) Diablo still has one of the best soundtracks in gaming. Though Diablo III is composed by a different composer, it is still in the same vein.

Diablo is actually more stable than TQ, performance wise TQ frames were all over the place, dependign on what was going on. I remember Diablo being more stable.

Diablo I think I will have more fun with singleplayer, than TQ co-op. Though I will be going through Diablo III with friends and family.

Man, I never get beta invites from Blizzard. And I have every Blizzard game on my Battle.net account. I even put up a second account with a few games on it and neither have gotten beta invites. :(
