Play all day and all night...never played a public game since RoS came out. Never played seasons. Rarely do Grifts except when I was leveling gems. Strictly run within clan and communities. I expect but can't prove there are more players like me than in your demographic proof of death. And we don't fit your mold at all.
The loot and mats are better in rifts and bounties. This is where you will find the people.
No matter what you're doing, the number of non-season public games got decreased drastically. However, it is quite strange as I didn't realize any difference in the game play; maybe just as Browntown said it issimply a display error.

I've never played public games since the clans became available. Probably I'm not the only one.
Its been around forever and i didnt realize how vital it is for pushing 40+ solo until now. I failed so many 40 and 41's due to running out of time. Watch high lvls stream, they always know where to go, coincidence?
Not to mention how nice it would be for keyfarming and bounties.
Kinda lost my desire to push higher g's now. Grifts are still a crap shoot but this would shave alot of dead time off each run. I could move up a bit and pull more non lethal packs, etc. I could also run to the exit when i get double winged assasins with horde (one of the few times i get density) to avoid them and start a fresh lvl.
I dont mind the dps meter and cooldowns. But the maphack, pylon locator and white marks on the hud showing where you can get more density are just too much of an advantage.
Nyan is a really nice person if you dont know him. Always helping other players and offering them a hug. Doesnt talk crap if your a baddie etc. Seemed to sacrafice himself for a truely competitive scene in d3. Typical cheater talks trash and belittles others with their false accomplisments, which is why i feel differently about this case.

This. I dont know much about turbohud but if its indeed giving the player all you mentioned, its a huge advantage.
It will also tell you if a pack has ts, jail or frozen if you import the preset. The elite prefixs are also easy to see (static little boxes), you dont have to mouse over the mob and see what they have, eating that first jail.
Combine the two from a distance and you have a big headstart as far as positioning or just trying to skip. Hoping the next lvl is a few screens away allowing you to vault to a fresh lvl/checkpoint.
Its honestly a great mod that allows players to see what they want, the author did a great job in reguards to the player side of things. Blizzard is making the game annoying with bad maps and unavoidable damage, this gives a player more advantages that compensate for bad design.
In vanilla, the monsters enraged due to a timer, in grifts players are now enraging to timers Time based clears is a bad design, why cant i use a tank and spend an hour clearing a 33? Its not optimal but its fun to not take damage and still get the win. I thought they learned that already.
Game is fine, its just the top players that are bothered by this. First the xp thing that affected seasons and now that this has become public having a huge influence on both ladders.
Im not sure what competitiveness is left here. But its really fun, a good time to play around with other chars who arent trying to compete.
Yeah thats for august, there has been so many bugs, exploits, cheats that many people have quit in the last two monthes..more then you might think. archeage is probably higher then diablo at this point. not to mention there is not to many games that are actually real good games right now in my opinion. notice how minecraft is right below diablo? there is a reason for that. games come and go, right now there is not to many. even so, id love to see a chart for this month seeing top games because id love to see how much its dropped. Kappa.
People play games to have fun and for the most people will play many different games. Some people will come back to older games and some never do.
There are still people playing commodore 64 games on the commodore 64. I say lucky sob's I wish my commodore 64 was still working so I could play some of the old classics there.
Blizzard made their money on Diablo 3 since it sold extremely well since it is one of the highest selling games on the PC. I do not know how it did on the consoles since I do not have one at the moment. But likely it did extremely well as well.

first off diablo is dying way faster then wow, to the previous comment. it may never completely die but at the rate its going i personally doubt they will make another expansion. look at twitch.tv, all of the big streamers quit because of all the bs. notice how gabynator, rank 1 right? ya well he cheated like over 300 paragon levels and im sure other exploits as well, hes known for that. seeing as people that are rank 1 cheater to get there says a lot, i doubt people that wanna compete will keep playing this game. it may not be a majority, but its still a real lot of people.
and yes blizzard did make money, but so did many other games that have failed miserbly..that doesnt mean anything. the game sold well because diablo 2 was a great game and people wanted to relive that experience, they even gave it a second chance for ros. do you think people will really give it a third chance? and a forth chance? and a fifth chance? exploit after exploit, them not banning anyone for cheating, hell there might as well be white rings and duped items because it wouldnt change the game at all at the moment.

WoW and Diablo are different games. WoW is a subscription based game and WoW is not dying. It is losing subscribers but it is far from dying. Any company would be extremely happy if they had even half of WoW subscribers. Diablo 3 is only based on boxed sales and sold extremely well. But most gamers usually only stay for about a week or two of playing a lot and then they decide if they come back and play at a later time or when an Expansion or DLC/Content Patch is added. I believe RoS sold very well. If people did not like vanilla I doubt they would have bought the expansion, I know I would not. Is the game perfect and I would say it is far from it. It is a fun game when I am in the mood to play the game.
If you hate the game so much, why don't you find another game and have fun playing that game instead of wasting your energy hating on Diablo III.
