@bdrtfm: I've never had a problem playing at a high level in Diablo 3 with a wide variety of character builds, and, no, I never used the auction house. I've always been 100% self-found. I suppose if you're trying for a very specific build that requires a very specific piece of gear then that could be a problem, but I've always just rolled with whatever I find.

WC3 Reforged got flack because Blizzard blatantly lied about what fans were getting. Compare the promotional videos showing new in-game cinematics and other features to what was actually delivered, and it's pretty obvious why fans were angry.

As a hardcore fan of the Diablo series since the first game was released in 1997, I have to say, I completely agree with this review. Diablo II is one of my all-time favorite games, but it has not aged well at all. Compared to its successor, it's slow, clunky, and obscure with a character development system that effectively railroads you towards optimal builds if you want to have any hope of surviving the higher difficulty levels. It's why character recipes were such a big thing with Diablo II, because if you did not follow the handful of golden paths, you would end up with a gimped character, which was always a frustrating discovery after spending dozens of hours leveling up and carefully assigning stat and skill points. I still love the game for what it is, and for what it was, but there's no denying it was not without significant flaws. I know this will rub a lot of Diablo II fanboys wrong, but Diablo III is simply a better game.

I actually still have Diablo II installed on my computer, and since this remaster hews so closely to the original, I don't really see the point in buying a lightly spruced up version of a game that I can already play.

@Pyrosa: I noticed that, too. Seems like there's only a small handful of actors in Hollywood who are cast as leads. Where's the diversity? And I'm not talking "diversity" in the bullshit liberal sense but in the sense that I want to see people headlining a movie that I haven't already seen in a dozen other movies!

I'm expecting Jack Black to play Bowser in his usual "Hi, this is Jack Black playing a different character who ironically acts and sounds exactly like Jack Black. Isn't that hilarious?" style.

@M_T_Mabowels: Last episode of Doctor Who I watched was Peter Capaldi's finale, and even though I knew it was coming, seeing the Doctor regenerate into a woman felt like a kick in the stomach. I haven't watched a single new episode since.

Hollywood all but destroyed the Ghostbusters brand with this nonsense. It remains to be seen if the upcoming movie can raise it from the ashes.

Craig is right. Why does Hollywood have this preoccupation with gender swapping famous and popular characters? It's stupid, and people should recognize it for exactly what it is: shameless pandering. Why not create an original character that an actress can make her own without inviting obvious comparisons to the actors that came before her?

I don't think the books are very good anyway. They read like something a moody teenager would write.
