lol at Poll results , %35 says PoE is better? seriously guys?
PoE(free) and TL2(20$) are just a cheap copies of D3,they can be compared to D3 ofcorse but in a way how close they are to D3 in quality perspective, not which one is better.
I'll vote for Diablo III based on the fact that it's the best game I've ever played, Although not a flawless masterpiece, Diablo III is fucking incredible. I don't find Path of Exile or Torchlight 2 appealing in the slightest.
they are two huge differences and cant be compared.
gameplay in PoE is way better. there is endgame and char customization, itemization implemented way better.
on the other hand its laggy and all the monsters looks the same
d3 has interesting economy, better graphics, rmah
ill play PoE on release but atm ill stick with d3 mostly for AH
i have played poe during open beta weekend and got bored...
-graphics is bad
-ai of the mobs is terrible, you can just run in circles and they do nothing to you
-combat is just slow like you were walking in jelly all the time
-there is no combat text, you dont know how much dmg you do/receive
-so called huge skill tree is an illusion, sine you have few options to choose from anyway
-you dont have pants?!?
-there is not bad graphics unless it has artifacts
-mobs and player have hitboxes? they dont melee player from 10meters like d3 mobs do?
-get moar AS
-i like numbers too! tho its uselss
-true. tho diablo have no customisation aswell
-no pants. impressive move
LOL. Underneath the shiny visuals I see a game that seems boring as hell, with a hero that moves as if on the Moon , killing waves of creatures with what seems an endless resource of skills that send enemies flying around the screen like rags dolls, our hero left untouched.. it is shiny, repetitive and so Asian..
How exactly is this better than the polished and challenging gameplay of DIII, even with all it's flaws?
PoE looks absolutely terrible. And I am not saying that because I am a D3 fanboy or anything. I personally plan on spending more time in TL2 than D3 when it comes out. But just watching the trailer and some other videos I have found the games graphics just look like total trash and the game play I have seen looks ridiculously slow.
As a person who would argue that even D2's graphics look good by today's standards, I think PoE graphics look great. And when people say things like gameplay being slow, I still find that too vague a comment. I think what a lot of D3 fans don't like about PoE is the lack of immediate satisfaction you get from sooner access to bright colorful skills that light things up, explodes them, etc.
That's how PoE is more like D2. You start off with very little and it actually feels like you do. Unlike D3 where you have a lot more to work with in the beginning and your resources are seemingly bountiful.
Uh, the gameplay looks slow, as in... slow... like shit moves slow. It looks like something designed for people with half a brain because everything I have seen happens so slow even retarded monkeys have time to react type slow. Not sure how better to state it.
As to saying the graphics of D2 look good by todays standards sure, I guess I can agree with that if I was still using the same PC I had when I was first playing D2. But being that I have a vastly better PC no, D2 looks like shit compared to todays games but PoE looks even worse. It makes me wonder what kind of budget they have for making this game or if they are working off donations.
But, someone mentioned Lineage 3 and OMG it looks amazing. I will totally be checking that one out. I just hope they have 2 AHs like D3.

Killing waves of creatures without a scratch, so exactly like we all do in D3 int he first 2 difficulties and most of its 3rd?
Shiny and repetitive? Like D3 isn't shiny and repetitive right?
Asian? I can't see anything in that video or any video I have seen for it that makes me think Asian unless great graphics are now synonymous with Asia.

Well, PoE is far more a copy of D2 than D3 if we're going to compare them, and TL2 a copy of D3? How so? It is a sequel to TL which came out in late 2009 and, you know, was created by the same team who created D2. The game isn't even out yet, how can you say it is a D3 clone?

No, it's not like DIII. In DIII mobs get to hurt you. In this gameplay video of LineageIII don't even come close.
No, DIII is not shiny and repetitive. The engine is several years old and each encounter with elites plays differently and required different strategy. In that video over there the guy just presses a button and everything around dies. So boring.
And yes, Asian, coz Asian games often overbuff the main hero and grant him over the top powers while battling an on-screen pandemonium without getting a scratch.
All in all, don't even talk to me about other action RGPs like PoB, TL2 or whatever. With all its flaws DIII is still miles ahead of them. And I am not a Blizz fanboy, btw..
I can't seriously play PoE unless they somehow make combat less.... slow. It's like playing D3 in slow-mo. I'll probably goof around with it, but the way combat currently is, it's just a game-breaker for me. If they could fix that up, I'd give it a decent whirl.
That's weird you say that cause I complained to a friend once about D3 how it felt like my character was running around in slow motion and the whole game felt like it had some slow time effect on it.
I actually had that problem when I was using an older computer, literally, it would be like my character was running through molasses. I honestly, couldnt play, I kept dying besides for the sheer slowness. I switched computers and afterwards it felt like he was on Speed.

I agree with feminism. I don't think that it's right that for every dollar a man makes, a women gets 70 cents. Why do I only get 30 cents and some chick gets the rest?
Hmm, well I've never had any problems with D3 technically. My computer maxes the game out easily. Yet it still just feels like it's in slow motion. I'm not explaining it good, I know. Maybe it's the way the 3D environment feels in comparison to D2's.
Lineage 3 looks a million times better than PoE, and I'm definitely going to try it out. I'm in agreement that the combat looks way too sluggish in PoE. It may not be a bad game when it releases, but it does look raw. I'm sticking with D3 for the long haul though.

Only on Hell / Inferno. Any normal/nm character can one shot all the threats he faces before getting damaged, execly like this game. Not to mention this is an gameplay demonstration. Take D3 2008 announcement video and see how the barbarian one shot a horde of ghouls only spamming cleave without even getting damaged.

Different strategies ? I dunno what game you're playing. I use the same tatic on every single champ (hit and run) and it works just fine. This game has an bunch of affixes but the gameplay is so clunky that you can't realy adaptate to then. Never saw anyone fighting a arcane pack by moving in circles, people just kite stuff out of the danger zone. Arcane, plagued, dessacrator, molten, all are beaten by the very same way. And the majority of other affixes doesn't really give you a tatical choice, it's just a harder monster to kill and you gotta be better at kiting and use your defensive stuff.
And yes, Asian, coz Asian games often overbuff the main hero and grant him over the top powers while battling an on-screen pandemonium without getting a scratch.
I dunno what Asian games you have played. Everything on RO and Lineage 2 one shooted me. You're being really ignorant to associate Asian with easy games. Asian games are time consuming and repetitive, yes, but they are not easy by any means.
I think i've never played something easier then D3 normal.
All in all, don't even talk to me about other action RGPs like PoB, TL2 or whatever. With all its flaws DIII is still miles ahead of them. And I am not a Blizz fanboy, btw..
You don't have any object claim to back up this statement. D3 has bugged hit boxes (things hit you when you're not there, you move and attack enemies because they leave no place in the screen for you to click) and items are way to over the top, they basically change your character so much you can make the game "cheap" (a properly geared barb can effectively ignore all the things you should be evading and many boss fights are merely tank-spank).
This alone makes TL raw gameplay better once it's more precise. I never found myself attacking when i wanted to move in that game or getting hitted by a javelin that is 16 yards distance from me.

You never owned an N64 D:

That's not the answer. The slow combat has been recounted by beta players all over their forums and the solution is not "get more attack speed".
POE doesnt even hold a candle to D3 IMO.
Heck, POE does not even touch Torchlight 2.
YES. I just found out about Marvel Superheroes a couple of weeks ago and it looks awesome.
I am praying they do the "LOL thing" and introduce a retarded amount of characters to buy.
I want a legion of superheroes to play with.

I did own a Nintendo 64, man.
I played the SHIT out of GoldenEye 007.
Wow, this is just sick man ... It can even claim the title of Diablo 4 if u ask me. A worthy game for 2012 :>
for f sake, you move horizontal, vertical or diagonal. the movements in that game is so outdated and feels like diablo 1.
and Linage3, yeah it looks awesome becoes allot of random shadows that make people think *oh it looks so awesome" but its quite random.
