Why would I buy an inferior ARPG with drop rates that were nerfed to hell, is Always Onling and costs me $100+ NZD?

Especially when I could get games like:

Torchlight 2: Made by Blizzard North refugees (the guys who made the first two Diablo games) costs $20 USD.

Grim Dawn: Made by Iron Lore refugees (makers of Titan Quest).

Path of Exile A free ARPG.

The Diablo 3 port will be top notch, but at this point I don't care about D3 anymore.

No, and here's why:

The PS4 is a glorified Bluray player. Sony said that it would support 4K ressolution, BUT NOT FOR THE GAMES. So they put that expensive hardware in the thing for kicks and giggles. Not interrested.
this is all coming from a guy who has zero interest in console gaming at all and is NEVER buying a ps3:

1. how on earth is it a glorified bluray player - it HAS a bluray player but that is FAR from its only function. its like saying a TV is a glorified digital picture frame.
2. 4K TVs are not going to be affordable in this console lifetime, so why would that be something thats important - not to mention, blurays wont be able to support 4k resolution - they literally do not have the capacity for a video that detailed.
3. you mean the hardware that actually plays games? the stuff that makes it a console?

dumb post is dumb

Diablo 3 was such a letdown was because of the auction house. I played through Diablo 2 over and over again because the chance to get rare or unique drops was always exciting. With Diablo 3, i just didnt care because i could always just buy whatever I wanted on the auction house. I avoided the AH for a long time because of that, but it only served to cripple my character because the game was kind of designed around using the auction house.
You used it because you wanted, diablo II had a shitload of trading too, Blizzard just lessened scams and damaged trading sites profiting from their product. I thought the main complaint was the build thing even though we all had identical builds on DII.



OT- I liked it, still play from time to time but was never big on replaying Diablo for ever, will surely play it again in a while or something. There's absolutely no reason to get it on another platform and I can't even begin to imagine a comfortable Diablo without a mouse.

It can be done.
Having a block button would be a nice addition.

i really didnt want to use the auction house though. for me the fun of dungeon crawlers like the diablo series has always been killing things and discovering new gear that your enemies drop. with diablo 3 you can definitely still play that way in normal mode (because normal mode in diablo 3 was absurdly easy) but the game was designed around using the auction house, so as you play higher difficulty levels, you can no longer rely on item drops for new gear (because even rare item drops in diablo 3 had extremely mediocre stats 99% of the time) and pretty much have to use the auction house in order to survive, particularly if youre playing a melee character.

I would. I always wanted to play it, but my computer was never good enough to run it particularly well. If they take off the always online stuff, it's a definite, because I've been looking for a good co-op RPG since I finished Dungeon Siege III.

The PS4 won't be released till like Christmas so we're talking late 2014 before Diablo 3 drops to $30. By then the new games out will make diablo 3 look like a dried up poop behind the couch.
...like torchlight 2 and path of exile? :p

Short version: No.

Long version: Not getting a PS4, so no.

Pun version: Hell no.
DON'T YOU MEAN...

INFER-NO?

OT: Maybe. I really don't know. My PS3 is just sitting around right now, so if it has split screen it could be a bit of fun.

For all those who picked the middle option, does that option seem to have a word missing?

For me I would put 'lacklustre'.

I have put a lot of time into my PC characters so there is no way I'd start over. If somehow I could use the same account I would. Love the idea of playing with a console controller. For some reason this game always kills my wrists. The idea of no auction house sounds exciting as well.

Nah, I doubt I'll be getting a PS4 anytime soon and I already have the game on PC. I still remember how awful the controls were for the original Diablo on the PlayStation and I highly doubt time will have improved them.
