Quote from Poision Envy:

meh, someone will patch it anyway. Just like they did with SC2.

Giving them money in the first place for that is still less than ideal. I'm largely opposed to DRM on principle but thn my PC can't run shit so I don't really have to worry about it!

what part of the "hope i am wrong" you didn't read?

Uhh, where exactly did you say that? because you definitely didn't say that in the first two posts you made that made me respond:

Quote from kesvalk:

nops

until the game releases, i play it and think that the game is good, i need to avail by what the devs of the game are doing right now...

and that is fucking with star2 and that hilarious expansion for WoW
so, for now, it will be a crap game.

by what i have seen until now, it's like the devs were afraid to change the game, or add things (just like starcraft 2) and just upped the graphics, which, for someone like me that still plays x-com and think it's better than 98% of the last two generation games, is nothing.

Quote from kesvalk:

it would be funny if diablo 3 falls out of the top 10 in 5 months after launch, while diablo 2 keep itself there for what? 10 years?

i remember one of the advantages of hainvg the expansion was the 800x600 resolution... that thing is old and still awesome...

diablo 3? dunno about that, seems very crappy near D2, god, Titan Quest is prolly better than D3... and TQ is from 2007!

I don't but a lot of console games either. I like video games but no way can I afford to play all the games I'd like to so it would just make me a little more picky about what I buy. Big deal.

the online part isn't for DRM though, it's because they want it to be an online game. They want you to play with other people, and to use the online auction house, and to get online achievements and all the stuff that those unlock.

Just like with Starcraft 2 how they wanted people to play together more instead of just being single player. It's not because of pirating or whatever.

it's implied man, heck, there is no reason someone would just want the game to fail!

but as i said, for what i read and saw, the impressions were not good, in fact they were bad, that don't mean i want the game to burn in the fires of hell...

there's absolutely no reason the game's single player should require an internet connection

there's no reason you can't just accumulate the achievements and other online stuff locally, then sync them up the next you connect, might and magic heroes vi does that just fine
