Difficulties are revamped: Now are Easy, Normal, Hard, Torment, Demonic, Apocalypse
Sigh...such pointless name changing. What was wrong with Nightmare and Hell?
These are the new names for the MP level replacements, not the difficulty modes. I'm actually under the impression there is no longer any actual difficulty modes like before. And it's all just one mode with multiple MP levels (these new names) that unlock with level.
Even so, they could have kept it as, for example: Normal, Nightmare, Hell, Inferno, Torment, Apocalypse. (Not a fan of "demonic", that's too generic in a game that's all about demons to begin with.)
My point is they are changing something that didn't need to be changed. Change the format if you must, but why change the names?
Diablo should not have an "Easy" mode. That's just....wrong.
Have you ever heard the expression "to call a spade a spade"? Because easy mode is just what MP0 is.
1. the items looked Awesome both when equipped and in your inventory IMO diablo 3 items look average in inventory.
2. There were many low level unique's and sets which were easy to acquire.
3. Items you found in normal and nightmare still had the potential to be useful and usable in Hell difficulty.
2 + 3 meant that progression through the difficulties was smooth, farming nightmare was a Viable way to progress to hell.
4. Damage was not absolutely determined by your gear and stats, In diablo 3 the problems which Bleu mentioned above are accentuated because of the gear and main stat dependence.
5. Etheral items + self repair mod.
6. Huge variety of Socketables.
Note many of these D2 strengths/D3 critques are adressed in some way by ROS/ next patch
Harlequin Crest was one of the most popular heads and that looked like a turd sandwich -.-
The way to see if its "legit" is not by looking at the questions, but to check the URL.
I didn't get such a mail, btw. And it would be odd from Blizzard to send out such an email at this point. I've never heard of any legit Blizzard survey like this either.
Edit: thanks, creazur. Well, if it really was blizzard.com (and not something close to blizzard.com), it might be legit. Still odd timing imho.
I think it's legit, check your email and see for yourself. The survey is very detailed so doubt it it's hack, especially when you don't have to enter any account information.
Just got a Diablo 3 survey from Blizzard in the mail:

tl;dr:
Existing weapons won't be touched. New drops might, when they decide to fix this bug (not in 1.07).
How can existing weapons NOT be affeted? That would be retarded, the most powerful weapons would be unobtainable for the majority and the select few would get a bigger advantage.
Sounds good to me, hope Blizzard takes a look at it!

MMO-champ posters seem to think it's real, after a lot of "Fake" posts: http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/1336641-Blizzard-Diablo-3-Survey
