    With offline play, everything is available for the player to look at, this does make it easier to create hacks that you can then use online. With Diablo 3, a lot of key data is stored server side, at the very least this will slow down the progress of hacks and make it easier for Blizzard to detect their use.

    This is the general reason it's harder. According to Blizzard, people would need access to files that are stored only on Blizzard servers in order to design hacks and bots that would work effectively. It's not like WoW where people were able to make bots solely through macros, as there will be nothing like that in this game. A bot or a hack would require a separate program that modifies Diablo 3. It's very hard to code something like that, when you can't look at what you're trying to code for.

    Which is why this situation boggles my mind. The important data you'd need to have a hack work online is stored server side, not client side, so how could offline mode make it easier >.>

    Well think about it. What's required for the game to work offline? Offline play requires all data that's processed server side (ie: at blizzards servers) to be processed on your own PC. This means you can actually observe all processes on your computer, and from there figure out how these are handled in online play.

    Without this information from offline play, it's a lot like trying to complete a jigsaw puzzle with the picture facing the table, and the grey side up.

    I've been playing for about a week now, and having a lot of fun. The world's very interactive, and it feels fresh. More or less a return to WoW in its vanilla state.

    Come join me on quarrystone ;o

    posted a message on Diablo 3 Music is Insane
    I don't think it's fair to compare our emotions when listening to both games' songs. This is because for Diablo 1, we associate the song with some very intense game moments. When hearing the song, those memories are triggered in the background, adding a whole lot of intensity.

    Whereas the Diablo 3 music is still just music. We listen to it without the attached memories.
