Does anyone else have a friend or friends who are "convinced"
Diablo 3 will be horrible just because they changed stuff and
didn't just remake D2 with better graphics.
Pretty much in my friends eyes they should of just revamped Diablo 2 graphics and
not change a thing. Where as I completely disagree and like what they have
done with the game.
Silly friends! It's funny how people get so used to things and don't want them to change... except it needs to look prettier. I have known a few people who were the same way, saying it's going to suck because it's so different... Far as I can tell, most the changes are for the better anyway. They've changed their minds since, but if they were to think Diablo II is far better than Diablo III is going to be, then it won't bug me any if they just keep playing DII. It's still a great game, but I think Diablo III will be much more interesting.

I seriously see you post in all kinds of forums!! haha
But I agree if they want to stick with D2 or just stop playing Diablo,
then more power to them. However, when they cave (and they will) I'll
be there saying "I told you so!"
I seriously see you post in all kinds of forums!! haha
I have no life, and nothing better to do.
Also, my friends are interested in Diablo III, but not like I am, and they know nothing about the game it seems. I try to talk to them about it, and they're like, "uh wut?" They don't even know what the skill trees look like or about resources, etc... They need to get with the program and get excited about it like I am!
That's why I'm on these forums... to talk with people who actually know about the game. <.<

Well I added you as a friend because I'm the exact same way only
most of my friends didn't even play d2 and some are still stuck on d2.
So when it comes to someone to talk to about it, I'm on my own haha.

What our your guys thoughts about this?
I have a friend who was addicted to D2, but is now a WoW addict. He is convinced that D3 wont be as good as WoW.
Its not that he is afraid of things changing from D2 to D3, he just doesnt like change. D3 is gonna have to shine to stop his WoW addiction.

I have no friends (-ェ-)。o they hate diablo and wanna play wow so i cut my bonds with em! Nah kiddin but some of them think D3 is the same game with better graphics.... i wanna toss them down from a balcony!
You probably should!
Er, not really... I'm sure you can't play Diablo III while in jail (but who knows these days).
To me, WoW and DIII are completely different games, so it depends what you like. I played WoW for such a long time, but I ended up getting really sick of dealing with people and all the crap that goes along with it. Sure you could do things on your own in WoW, but you couldn't progress through the game and do everything on your own. DIII it's different, I CAN do everything on my own and not have to deal with crap from other people. But I know a lot of people like the social interaction that WoW gives, it's just not for me anymore.
I literally have one friend that played D2...and he doesn't even know all the classes in D3... But at least he's gonna buy the game when it comes out. AND he's gonna be my room-mate next year so there will probably be no socializing for the first month after release...
Though jail in sweden is nice, you get good food, a salary, free education and other stuff.
Yeah that part when you have to depend on others for endgame experience is bothersome. Thats why i like the diablo games! Solo play all the way!
It our jails, we get bum-fucked, almost just gangs in our prison, not that I've been to jail, just a good reason why I behave myself and probably why I stay in front of the pc most of the time...keeps me out of trouble.
Yeah I'll also play solo most of the time, just not a big fan of playing with others or even friends, but I will definitely play with friends after I completed D3 or when I get as far as I can go.
Just get Diablo 3 Standard Edition + Red Bull.
Save $30, and a two hour wait in line.
Haha it's not the same!! I'll be getting that CE and some red bull =]
Also, I guess the thing that annoys me most is how someone (my friend)
can sit and judge a game so harshly when he hasn't seen/read anything
about it, besides what I've talked about with him. He also hates the
RMAH. He dislikes a couple things and them makes the statement that
the game will be horrible...

Don't judge a game by it's cover...ba dum tss. Not that D3's cover is shitty or anything!! One thing that I don't understands is that there's a couple of people who's not gonna buy D3 because of the RMAH...if you don't like it then don't use it! Use the gold AH instead.
Remember when that first 20min gameplay vid was shown? A LOT of people disliked the art and rainbows and bunnies hopping about ect. There was a petition and all...and now there's no bitching about the art any more. The point I'm trying to make is that they'll eventually get over the RMAH-thing and play the game once they see you playin!
I have 1 or 2 friends that also claim they won't buy D3... They are just lying, anyway, if they want to play with people online they will have to get D3 because everybody that I know will be playing D3

Haha very true! I guess some of them are just scared of change or to try something new.
I just don't understand how a TRUE Diablo fan could sit there and "talk shit" about a game
they haven't played and that redefines and continues the story of Diablo I and II.
Also for someone to not want to play because of the RMAH is, in my opinion, a dumbass.
Diablo 2 had all kinds of sites for buying items. Now that it is worked into the game
to make blizzard money and make it easier/safer for gamer's to get their items. Also,
it will keep Diablo away from Pay-to-Play... yeah now that I think about it I don't want
to buy Diablo 3 anymore... <_<

Punch him in the nut.
I feel like your friend is just talking shit about the game because he doesn't know enough about it, and just taking all the "bad" things he's heard about it and saying that's all the game is. Not everyone likes the RMAH, there are tons of people on this site that hate the idea of it, and they're still going to buy the game because there's a million other things that are AWESOME about the game! Like has been said, if you don't like the RMAH, don't use it. If you don't like the auction house at all, don't use it, but it sure will make trading a lot easier than spamming a chat channel looking to trade an item, then joining a game with that person.
You should tell him to learn more about the game, and he'll probably fall in love with it. Or just ignore him, and when the game comes out you'll be having a ton of fun playing it and once he sees it in action he'll want it anyway.
the majority of people who thinks the changes in D3 arent good is because they dont UNDERSTAND them or just don't think.
they think "OMFG NO SKILL POINTS? FAIL FAIL FAIL" without realizing theres 2.4 trillion skill combo's and all the skills are actually useful VS D2 which had entire skill trees that were worthless. D2 had a total of 20-30 VIABLE end-game builds between ALL characters. each class in D3 will have HUNDREDS EACH. ive talked with many people and once i explain it like this they go "OHHHH...... sweet no skill points!" lol.
and same with attribute points, most people aggree it was an extremely flawed system in D2 and we are better off without them. but they see its removal and cry wolf without thinking about it at all.
and lastly the "pvp crowd" which humorously enough think they are the "majority" of diablo players and freak out about no pvp rankings or ladder in D3 and say "lolol this game will fail". yes because there was a vast majority of pvp options in D2 right? and EVERYONE played D2 for pvp right? i mean ya you dont see but <1% of games that are "D U E L Z" games between norm nm and hell combined but hey i'm sure that they are still the majority right?

Completely agree with you. I hated in Diablo II having to spend skill points in abilities I wouldn't ever use just because it led to another ability I wanted, or because of the synergies. It always feels crappy to me to have to do that, and WoW did it too in their talent trees and it felt crappy there too.
I personally hated attribute points because I wasn't 100% sure if I was making the best decision on where to spend them. Sure, I could look it up and know that I should have a min of this or that and dump the rest in one stat, etc, but I didn't feel like I should have to go and look up stuff like that.
I think it's right to say that in most cases the people who are hating on Diablo III and certain aspects of it is because they don't know enough about it. It's a change, people hate change, but they don't know how it's changed, so they automatically hate it instead of learning more about it. Most of these people are still probably going to buy the game anyway, then they can decide if they like it or not, after they've actually played it.

I ordered my CE today. The girl at EB games was shocked when I told her I don't like oblivion :\
