Hey everyone -

I had planned a bonus episode of State of Diablo 3 later this week, but had no idea it would be up so soon, given today's news.  With the PvP delay, we have produced a new bonus episode of the show for you all:

PvP Delay

Let us know what you think here and in the comments.  Thanks for watching.  

Cheers 0/

Always nice to listen to you, and this one had an special comical sense to it at some point where me and the gf were laughing perhaps a bit too loud..

Hope to hear more about PvP from your chats

I'm glad you enjoyed the episode

Uh, sounds a bit harsh. (But tbh, I thought about the same...)

It seems a lot of people enjoy these Youtube discussions, so I guess it's fine. However, since this is a forum and I really don't feel like listening for ~1 hour to a "discussion", it would be nice if the authors would summarize the key points in text and post them along with the video for people (like me) who don't feel like watching the episodes (because quite frankly, imho they're way too long).

Hey, getting paid for those YouTube views doesn't happen by itself!

I listen to them while farming. It's a good system.

I thought about it for a while and decided this needs to go in the PvP section. Moving it there.

Didn't take rocket science or years of game design experience to see how a mostly pve game where you can gear up to be doing 100fold or more the damage of a fresh 60 was going to make pvp balance a literal nightmare.

Open up the deathmatch... next thing people want is meaningful rewards. For a pvp system that usually means people want a ladder... Then people want a game where mostly skill gets rewarded but this is completely trumped by my first point that the gear scales almost exponentially. So the pvp rewards don't really feel meaningful, nor is there any real way of isolating the pvp without going absolutely crazy with pvp gear and rules that you might as well be making a different game.

I just wish there was a way for them to basically give up on the idea without stupid unrealistic backlash so they can go to announcing  really cool new stuff... MP and Ubers was great or at the very least very good. Want more.
