Do you want to hear it if you think that Diablo 3 is really a pretty bad game? Because I believe it is. I always knew that Blizzard would some day iterate themselves into a lousy game I just never thought it would be in a Diablo game

Almost every decision that was made for this game was the exact opposite of what they should do. It is just an isometric Borderlands which will be fine for a lot of people but is the opposite of what I think it should be. Quite honestly, I think Torchlight 2, Grim Dawn, Path of Exile, even W.A.R.maybe will all be better games than D3.

Blizzard has just lost their way as Activision exerts more and more control over their decisions.

Grim dawn looks very good!

IMO seems there is a lack of video settings available. I would expect more options for us computer users. Starcraft II has a nice set of available video options. WoW which is a 8+yr game has more video settings vs. D3. I would like to see more of everything under the video settings menu so we take advantage of our computers. Example, the texture settings only has medium and high with high only demanding 512MB of VRAM. I would like to see options for very high/max/ultra (any of these) available as options. I understand this is only a beta but I hope this trim down of video settings isn't due so this can be an easy port to the consoles. Also, the color system for Diablo 3 seems a bit washed/faded in certain areas. Now is this the way the game is meant to be?

I notice Diablo 3 is randomly stuttering as you move your character.

Don't get me wrong, loving the beta but as with any game, there are concerns at hand.

They keep pushing the time back and it's really annoying...

I beg to differ, traveling to the past has been a blast for me thus far!

Just play the game, you'll see it's gonna be good. I'm also looking forward to Grim Dawn and TL2 the most after D3. And prease shed some right on why you say Activision control Blizz decisions.

considering they kept saying how there not trying to force co-op making it so much better then solo this would definitely contradict that. they say you should be able to kill faster with a good group but in later difficulties you'l have to have a decently skilled group and work together or else you'll all die and itll be harder then soloing. if you truly got more xp per kill then no one would solo to 60.

Let's hope it stays that way, then.

Just got my beta like 100k other ppl and i was realy surprised how fun was the with-doctor but im disapointed about the wizard and the demon hunter.....i guess ill have to wait for the real game to realy go through each class but honestly disentegrate and rapid fire are just boring imo

same here. WD was the most fun by light years. the wiz and DH are good but just because they are good doesnt make them fun. their later spells will probably be alot more fun though looking at the skill calc

honestly cannot disagree more...after playing all 5 through the series of quests to level 8-9 i had the most fun playing the demon hunter. it is true though the beta will barely scratch the surface of the game at these low levels.

the barbarian and wizard are too strong currently imo, unless they slow down their attacks slightly which is what they should do imo

DH and monk should be fast attacking lower power, wizard and barbarian slow and powerful, WD a nice blend.

i am so undecided on which characters to play atm.

Originally was this, then that, now this.

Stck between barb, dh and monk atm. One of the many reasons i wish to try the beta out!

That's how I feel with most games, don't like long ranged characters; WD is also kinda ranged, but can be played with at close range. Melee characters just feel more powerful and satisfying imo.

Don't you mean crushingly satisfying?

Joking aside, I agree. I typically find it a more enjoyable experience being up-close to my foes.
