My experience in mmorpgs/Rpgs betas is huge ( since im lucky enough to get invites i guess ). I know exactly what i mean.
Game has many holes atm. I dont want to make a wall of text BUT if you had access in beta forums you could read there many valid concers . From PVE ( melles vs rangers ) to PVP ( downed state rework ) and many more issues ( confusing and complicated for newcomers proffesions , some solo quests difficulty etc etc ). I can bring you 100 more things need fixing/rework/tweak.
Now that doesnt mean game isnt good. It has the potential to be huge if you ask me. I dont care about other MMOs beta , dont bring this argument. Im talking about GW2 here.
Last beta i had the feeling that game needs way more polishing before release....
I hope they wont rush it and make people sad... There were many issues in last beta...
I cross my fingers and hope for fixing everything before release...GW2 it has a huge potential to be something big. Dont let it go wasted ANET...will be a shame
I , as well all my irl friends and most of my net friends ( except 2 ) went back to what we used to play...
D3 as a singple experience was nice , specially for diablo fans but as an online , addictive experience ... IT FAAAAAILED sooo bad...noone could predict...
Imho , Jay Wilson failed. Even if game became fastest pc game ever...i strongly beleive now that is also the fastest decline pc online action RPG ever.
Diablo 3 is great game overall , with a fantastic single player experience specially for diablo hardcore fans like me ( normal mode ) BUT with many flaws though atm. I got more than 120hours ingame ( yeah i play so much since release ) with a 60 monk 60 witch doctor both on act 2 inferno.
My main issue is the VERY unbalanced INFERNO mode champion packs and ridiculous legendary weapons ( in a bad way ) that are in many occasions are WAY WORSE than simple blues of same level ( 60 )... ruin it for me big time since what it matters in this game is actually ITEM finding satisfaction which in D3 something is way OFF.
If any changes / patch isnt coming anytime soon to make the experience of high end gaming ( inferno ) champion packs any better ( means to give a chance to players to be able to kill them , 1 in a million !!! ) and looting ( legendaries ) any better ( boosting their dmg/affixes so legendaries BE WAY BETTER THAN BLUES!! not vice verse! )) ...
I never beleived i would say it... But im waiting Torchlight 2...!! Crazy ha? Indeed.
Diablo 3 is entirely on another level. Your example wasnt valid.
Diablo 3 offers way deeper story,complete lore and customable skills/builds. Therefore as an RPG it feels way more complete and thats why it costs way more than T2 will.
T2 is a fantastic "d2" clone with a wow graphic touch .
Personally ill buy both. But we need to be honest and admit D3 superiority in everything.
They didnt make any profit?!! Billions of profits!! Because is slight less than previous year doesnt mean they didnt make any profit...
We talking about a "merge company" that sales millions of copies and have constantly income of more than 130million $$ per month from WoW subs alone...
If this company isnt making profits then noone is/ will ever .
