I really understand most of you saying 10 is more then enough if you only play softcore.
For me as a Hardcore players i will also want to have 5 softcore and 5 hardcore.
So this mean i wont be able to start a lvl 1 with a friend who just bought diablo without deleting one of my lets say 50+ lvl caracters.
Blizzard won't us to play togueter, but the only way ill be playing a new caracter with a friend is by having to sell 1 of my high level caracter and to be honest this really suck...
Space and data never been an issue in the past for blizzard. All this is just a business decision to make more money from GEEKS who will play a lot. to buy a second D3 key.
People here who have a GMAIL account, go login and scroll down to the bottom please. You will notice that you can store up to 7681 mg (7.6 gig) of data and it's ALL FREE! Do you really think that your stash size and caracters take a lot of of space in their server...? NO !!This is bullshit and just to make more money.
Also people who say Auction house will help the storage problem... I dont see how this is helping at all. You will sell an item and the player who buy it will store it. Same thing if someone sell you an item. It is a physic law.
I wouldnt play diablo more then 1 month without Hardcore mode. When your caracter die, it should die. Softcore is really boring for me but im afraid ill play it at the start for the real money auction house.
Once you fear to enter a boss room, you wont play softcore again
Is it going to be 1 account per copy of the game? Currently in Diablo2 you can make as many accounts as you want with the 10 character limit making the number of characters potentially infinite. And is there an East/West server, or everybody is clumped together?
Assuming its everybody clumped together and limited to the 1 account, so 10 total you can ever have. I'm kinda bummed about that. Ya maybe you 'shouldn't need more than 1 character. But who knows maybe I really like my witch doctor and want to make another one to level with a friend who just got the game. Maybe I want 9 of them lol. At least in WoW I could roll up on another server for an extra 10 slots.
Yeah, 1 account per diablo 3 key you buy. But like other says you can switch your skillz easily with runes.
My really biggest concern right now is the stash size. There is 70 slot per "stash pages" and most item take 2 slots. This mean that you will have about 40 to 45 items per stash pages. If i compare to how much mules i had on diablo 2 hardcore, this will be capped quite fast. And in D2 i was keeping almost only unique items that has some kind of value. They really need to give us more then 3 pages of stash.
When i played the beta i saw that the max numbers of caracters was 10, I think this is way to low.
I guess its nothing new for WoW player? For me it is and im the kind of players who will make different kind of caracters per class to try new style. Just like a BowZon or a JavaZon.
I've been lucky to try the beta via a site who gave me 2 hours of free play the other day. Here is what i did like from Diablo 3 beta and why. Feel free to give your opinions
I Like:
The gameplay feel like an arcade game. I really like the fact that numbers show up when we hit monsters. Also the gameplay is really fast make us feel to do combo in order to earn more xp.
I am pretty sure that players will build skill combo between them when they play in party.
I like the fact the skill are given at random when you level up.
I like the fact that it take few seconds to cast a town portal, for hardcore players this will be the game to a real challenge. This also the case for when you leave the game, you have to wait 10 seconde before you leave it. This will make hardcore more hardcore and has a big diablo 2 hardcore player this is REALLY NICE!
I like the fact that they made the quest very begginer friendly. We always know where to go even if we don't listen to what NPC say's...
I don't know on your side but for me rare items only dropped from Skeleton King. This mean that rare and Unique item seems to drop more rarely then they were in Diablo 2.
I really like being able to directly go where my party friends are just by clicking the flag on the town. This is a really good improve.
I like the new items specification who give you more experience when you kill monsters. I see myself build new caracters with this and turn them into Magic finder when i get very high level.
The fact that its the weapon that determine your skillz damage will make the game very balanced between caracters i think.
Also, its good to not be able to buy identification scroll... It was just a boring thing to do since they were cheap to buy.
What i fear from Diablo 3:
Since there is no more attribute and the skills are random this make the game not enough deep. So I really hope the Runes will fix this when the game is out because i dont see myself play for years if we cant customize our caracters a lot.
The Normal gameplay could be beatable by a 6 years old child... So i really hope Inferno difficulty will be VERY hard!
The auction house, i would like to see real money trade in hardcore. I'm hardcore players and if there is money to do with diablo 3 ill be forced to play softcore until the items get sold for low value.
Hostility in games, I didnt noticed that i was able to hostile someone in a Quest game. I know it's something recreational player will like. But on my part I'd like to hostile someone in a quest game for the fun of it
I hope gold will have a real value in diablo 3. For repair items etc.
Thats It! Feel free to reply you idea on this and I hope to get a key from Blizz or Dfans so i can make more reviews

5 male softcore and 5 female softcore
5 male hardcore and 5 female hardcore
But ok... maybe its exagerated
As long as they add slots when expension comes out, im fine with that system.
