    Quote from CodeRedLin

    Quote from Zero(pS)

    Just because a franchise doesn't keep all of its old systems, doesn't take away its credit.

    Thank God the developers are different. As I said before, the D1/D2 developer quit to make his own "Diablo clone" game, it had all these systems people want so desperately, and it was a massive failure

    Developers*. Blizzard North is gone. Diablo 3 might as well have been made by ID Software or EA. The name was kept entirely for brand recognition only. If it wasn't named Diablo 3 it would still be a very flawed game. I know you've admitted as much. The thing I'm laughing at lately is the jumping on the Blizzard bandwagon with why the game sucks. Jay Wilson admits the auction house was a mistake. Next on the list is near zero social aspect (Bnet1 style > Bnet2 style, chat system not up to SC2/WoW par), lack of end game still (Thank Kripp for Paragon levels), lack of any form of public event (PoE has race ladders and they can be extremely fun), and lack of replayability (ladders, build system, etc).

    I don't understand why people are offended at what Kripp / other guy said. You didn't develop the game. They call it easy right? Well Kripp is 1 of 2 people (the other being Krippi who was with him) that beat the game pre-nerf on Hardcore Inferno. So pretty much things that are easy to them are a nightmare for others. This guy wins pretty much every race he enters in PoE which puts everyone on the same level (1 hour, 3 hour, etc set playing time starting from complete scratch with no advantages given to anyone). I know you dismiss that certain players are way above the norm but when they win near 100% of the races (Kripp crushing ~2000 to 5000 people over and over) and always finish top (Reckful just had Rank 1 on 2 different classes in WoW again for instance) I guess it could all be luck. I'm still waiting on my turn at a good dice roll :-)

    Well one thing im not a kripp/crapp follower but the things he says are right.He has more experience.

    Now if someone better than kripp came along and directly challenged his views then that would be cool.Someone who could crush kripp in gaming.However comments like "Kripp knows nothing" sounds lame from gamers who are still posting on forums about what they should buy with their 300m.

    Now im gonna get a lot of posts about how "We got family,kids and wives to fuck(That had really made me LOL hard) and kripp has time." If you not got time,its not kripp's fault he has.Time is required to play games too.

    Its like inviting someone to a feat of strength and then whining after losing that he had more time to excercise.

    Look im not saying kripp's the best.But i am not at a level to challenge him simply because he has more experience.I have not won every race i have entered in.I have not beat diablo pre-nerf.Kripp has.So he is better.

    However if someone along the same lvl of skill as kripp challenged him it would sound more appropriate rather than giving a hint of jealousy.

    Kripp's ego is loving this.

    Love him or hate him, mentioning his name draws flies like shit. You can't buy promotion this good. No wonder this website is constantly besieged by wanna-be streamer celebs trying to bribe people with frees just to watch them play a game.

    Sad but true.Even when people hate kripp they keep discussing.And when there's a long discussion going on no one can resist the chance to get his/her own voice in.

    People should treat this the same way they treat trade threads about items they don't like.That is ignore.

    What he meant that he has to make some money for survival and while he could make much more money he doesn't.If you think making money for survival is cash grab and all then you won't understand.

    And also by survival i don't mean he makes money to barely survive against this harsh and cruel world.He makes enough money to live comfortably while enjoying games.

    ^^But that doesn't make him an authority in gaming.

    Thats the whole point of what people are saying. He does this to make money. You said it yourself. He doesnt do it for free he does it to pay the bills so of course its about the money. No money means no "Living Comfortably".

    I am saying that gaming is his job.And whenever you do a job you will want to live a good life.Its natural.After all who wants to live poorly even if they have the money to live a good life???

    What i am saying is kripp could earn a lot more if he wanted if he did those razor crapfest mouse ads and all stuff.But he doesn't.

    And im not saying he's great and all.All im saying is he could earn a lot more.I wonder why he doesn't do those stuff.

    Look im not a kripp follower or something.Just stating the difference between those 2 quotes you quoted.

    Edit your original post.

    Add an option 4 which is "both 1 and 2".

    Then i would choose that option.

    Not saying Wd is bad and all that as he is among my two favourites.............but runes could be better and you shouldn't have to fill half of your skills and passives with mana regen stuff.

    Quote from Zuchi

    Kripparrian was never about money, he never advertised shit, and he never called himself elite or claimed to be so. He shares his builds, his knowledge (even when he used to play WoW) and he gives constructive criticism about the games he likes. I just don't understand the people who are calling him elitist, money grub etc. because he's the furthest away from it, and ofcourse he has his opinions, but he never claimed his opinions were more important than any other player of that game, he likes to speak out about them and rightfully so, but to call him elitist just because of that it's a bit over the top. Get your facts straight before making judgements about people, and if you're judging him just from 1 video in the OP then you're not qualified at all. I never got the feeling that he's elitist when watching his videos, some of it may be sarcastic, but if you didn't get the sarcasm then its your own fault. Peace out.

    PS. And no I don't watch his videos because I'm his fanboy, I watch them because he makes a lot of sense and is not biased when giving out criticism, he speaks the truth.

    Quote from Zuchi

    Well if you're playing games 24/7 and streaming them, you gotta make "some" money at least? How else you gonna buy bread? Just because he's trying to make just little bit in order to keep doing what he enjoys doing you're comparing him to a business and speaking of such things as kindness of his heart, money grubbing, maximising profit etc? Seems a bit harsh

    You just completely contradicted your own post. So what is it? Does he or doesnt he make money off what he does??

    What he meant that he has to make some money for survival and while he could make much more money he doesn't.If you think making money for survival is cash grab and all then you won't understand.

    And also by survival i don't mean he makes money to barely survive against this harsh and cruel world.He makes enough money to live comfortably while enjoying games.

    Have fun with your d3 and its rabbid community which destroys every game it touches for the sake of accessibility. You won. Enjoy your game, it is as good as it will ever get. Hell, you'll soon be able to play it on console.

    Eat this, there is more coming.

    It has been 11 months since release and the only salvageable part they had to take care to make the game lasting and appealing to the core diablo crowd has not been touched. I am talking about the itemisation which is a f****** shame. Don't get me started on the story or the overall customisation, the MF AH.

    I am done with this game. Blizzard have completely shifted gears, milking successful IPs until their balls drop and they only are the shadow of their past selves.

    I am disguted. Have fun arguing with the blizzard marketers storming this site. I'm out.

    Dude,you're fighting a losing battle against the f***oys here.

    For example,look at some of the laughable comments i found from different posts:-

    Guy A:- Diablo 3 doesn't have that gothic and dark feeling that d2 had.
    F***oy Reply:- Oh you want dark and gothic?? Reduce your brightness and gamma!!!!

    Guy B:- Diablo 3 doesn't live up to diablo 2.
    F***oy Reply:- Then go play diablo 2!!(Although its 10 years old and you paid $60 for d3)

    Guy C:- In diablo 2 self found drops were fun.Now the AH has ruined everything.
    F***oy Reply:- No one's pointing a gun to your head and telling you to use the AH.You can farm for it.(Although the drop rates are terrible, which leads you against your will to the AH.......unless you're looking for +str or +int dropping million times for a monk item)

    And don't forget there are other f***oys supporting them.

    About kripp and alkaizer............Dudes you think you are stars?!? Who made you stars?The people who watched your streams.Although 35% of what u said about d3 was right the way u said it gave away that you did not believe your own words.If you wanna speak.........then speak by actions because your words are kinda lame.

    The game sucks all right but an expansion will set things right.

    And about D3 vs POE, POE wins in effort.By effort i mean that if 18 gamers from nz could compete against a billion dollar company then it is an achievement.Who decides poe is better than d3 or not??We the people.And when many people speak poe as the true diablo 3 then that means it has achieved something.

    And by the way if poe devs took the same time as blizzard to make new content,then by now we would have only one class with only one area playable with a lvl 4 cap and no passives and skills.

    posted a message on Another PTR..... Really
    Quote from Tempster

    Why is there such a big discussion about the initial start of the development? In my eyes, it is completely pointless to argue if the development started 2001/2006 or 2008. On release day the game felt unfinished; that's fact. We had a lot of patches, and I think the PTR is a good thing. The more important topic is, why they take forever to get things rolling. Blizzard always has to announce a Q&A in which they announce the official announcement of a future patch coming soon. I will be a very happy customer, if they start doing their shit faster without those announcements of announcements.

    I just don't get it why they can't announce patch --> PTR --> live.
    At the moment it is: Announcement --> Q&A --> Announcement --> Announcement of PTR --> PTR --> Announcment --> Changes --> live

    ^^ Exactly.


    And i won't trust wikipedia if you guys say so.

    posted a message on Another PTR..... Really
    Quote from Bleu42


    Ok ok what do i say......First Blizzard took 8 years to develop a BETA.

    Then during the first four patches(ie upto 1.0.4) Blizzard realized that even their testing team has quit the game.(I wonder why?? *Innocent Face*)

    Then one guy came up with an idea.He was like,"Hey since we have been treating players like shit and since we gotta keep them until the expansions,why don't we let them test the PTR? They have been doing the testing team's job since launch anyway.And this will make them feel as if they matter."

    The others were like,"Wow dude cool idea!! Someone go tell one of the developers or one of the CMs to deliver a long blog about how they matter to us and how every voice counts.Don't want the PTR to be empty now,do we?"

    And then came the PTR.The blizzard people were like "You.....yes you! get to make a contribution to the game!And you get to play content before the patch hits!!"

    So that's why the PTRs are present.

    And i must really find my Flame-Resistant suit fast or i'll burn to a crisp.

    On your first point, just fyi, development of the current D3 didn't start until ~2006. They then took a year off (the whole team) to help on starcraft 2 development. This would mean actual development was about ~6 years.

    And i quote wikipedia:-

    Development on Diablo III began in 2001 when Blizzard North was still in operation, and the game was first announced on June 28, 2008, at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational in Paris, France.[14] The original artistic design differed from that shown at Blizzard Worldwide Invitational 2008 demonstration, and had undergone three revisions before reaching the standards felt necessary by the team behind Diablo III.[citation needed] The game is being planned for a simultaneous release on both Windows and Mac OS X platforms.[14] It was also revealed that the game would require a constant internet connection to play, even for single-player mode.


    And also i had read somewhere that development on "Project Hydra" started in 2001.

    And i'm really sorry bro but i trust wikipedia over you.

    Dear Fanboys, I am extremely sorry cause i made a post calling you all Fanboys.I told you to get over something which is obvious but im clearly not a judge of what you should get over,no matter how obvious it maybe.Its your life. I apologise humbly(Imagine me sitting like a chicken and making chicken noises and apologising to you,or imagine whatever you think humble)

    This is addressed to all Fanboys including Blizz fanboys,D3 fanboys and any other fanboys whatsoever.

    Note to mods:- Here the word Fanboy is not used as an offensive term,but to classify the group of people i have hurt. I used this word because i'm apologising to this particular group who were hurt,and this word is used only to make them know that i'm talking about them,not using it offensively.

    Your very first post consisted of calling anyone who didn't agree with you fanboys, and making fun of them / laughing at them.

    Exactly my point my very first post was harsher than the infraction post so why didn't they give me an infraction then?Ok anyways im typing an apology post write now.
