show me source where it says its made by d2 developers? can't find any info on that.

their website: Grinding Gear Games

don't see anything related to d2 or blizzard. please elaborate

Gone back to Diablo 2 when not playing LoL,....love the fact that I get bored of D3 in 1 month....but not of D2 in 10 years.

Yeah his gas cloud is a little too insane atm... 1100 all res and 10K armor on my barb and he drops me in 15 seconds if I try to tank and spank...

Had to use a cheese skill build to beat him after 2 deaths.

I played open beta weekend a while back, the skill system/grid is insane

I think you have this game confused with Torchlight 2.

Path of exile is pretty good but the skill tree is a little too overwhelming. The new end game feature they added looks promising.

Looking forward to Grim Dawn

no real info on the sys req. on their website.

My friends have been trying to pull me over to this other game called TERA ... since I'm getting pretty bored of D3 now ... maybe I should give that a try ... or start up Battlefield 3 :considered:

^ bf3 is a must try. If you like CS and don't get motion sickness from FPS games, then BF3 will be one of those games you can't really get bored of.

^ i disagree,

when your forced to buy every expansion that ever comes out for it, because every server requires it,

it gets boring real quick

TERA is a good looking game and is one of very few MMORPGS with a hit-detection based combat system that works well. The main issue with TERA is that it is -extremely- grindy, but that was what I heard months ago. Could be fixed now or for launch.

I just started bf3 and damnnn! I must say. Its better than mw3 fmo. I don't even touch d3 anymore. I'm starting to think that It was a waste of money... :(

its really hard to stay entertained by d3, i do feel like it was a waste of money =\

i felt that way till i realized i spent over 100h on it.
ive spent the same for games that lasted me a lot less.

same.. I beat diablo on inferno last night finally .. now I have no urge to play it anymore.. wish there was lvl 99 so at least if i grind for items I can lvl up a bit. Right now grinding for that one item to kill the stuff a little faster is not end game for me.

ya I hit a wall today too... Tried leveling hardcore but so sick of leveling and killing the same shit during the same story for items that only last me a few levels.

I have a 60 wizard which is pretty geared and did everything... Without ladder, pvp or any sort of decent loot table the game is going to be dead in another few months.

i wouldn't give up on this game yet. i haven't played it in a while but i still have hope that blizzard will fix it. d2 was shitty when it first came out too

for now its just sitting on my hard drive, waiting till pvp patch comes :)


how accurate is this? i was thinking about picking up bf3 soon cause i got a new gaming rig and can finally handle it but am i really limited if i just want to buy the game and not the DLC's?

im pretty sure i've spent more. but it really doesnt feel like its worth the money when it feels almost like a chore to play. i still try to play a little bit, but i'm lucky to be awake for 10 mins before i start getting drowsy

congrats. sadly its all just items... which is really boring to just grind it out for that weapon that does a tiny bit more dmg

personally feel like the game is pretty dead already. before i'd log on, see pretty much all my friends on d3.
now... i log on and i'll have 2 friends online... who are playing wow or sc2


people keep referring back to d2. i never played d2 until maybe 5 years ago when the expansion was already out, but d3 honestly seems like its gone the opposite way in my opinion. its only been a month yet people have basically set it aside, while d2, people were still playing. i know i was itching to play just last year but i lost my cd key a few years before that.

For anyone who quit, mind giving me your account so I can play with it? heh

Just sold my first item on the RMAH for $55, so after all the fees I got about $46.

Random thought of the day:
So I've spent about 150+ hours (probably about 90 of those hours are actual "fun" hours, the rest was just doing the same shit and trying not to doze off) on my Monk and about 20-30 hours on my DH and WD.
After selling my first item for cash this thought occurred to me. So other people playing this game actually grind for items to sell?... isn't it extremely boring to be running through the same level, listening to the same people tell the shallow storyline, beat up the same monsters, leave game, rinse and repeat?
At this rate (well at least for me) ... so for simple calculations sake, let's say I only put in 100 hours, I would still need to sell 4 items worth max cash of $250 (that's if you are extremely lucky) in the RMAH to make $1000. Take into account the tax that the goverment (in this case Blizzard) skims off the top and you are left with $850. So in reality you are "working" since you are getting paid for what you are doing - at the rate of $10.00 per hour (less than minimum wage) before "taxes" and only $8.50 per hour after deductions.
Since it's super tedious, repetitive and boring to be farming the same runs ... you might as well get a real job (Accounting comes to mind) and just "pretend" the Excel spreadsheet squares on your screen are monsters, click on them, punch in numbers (similar to using spells/abilities in D3) and voila, you are more likely than not making a guaranteed double payment of what you would be doing on D3, AND it's not a gamble because accordingly to the Blizzard Patch notes, super good items drop at the rate of... what 1.3%? Higher odds on a scratch'n win ticket.

Just thought the road that these big game companies are taking to "commercialize" Video Games is pretty sad. Hackers, farmers, everyone ruining this game.
Haha excuse my random rambling, just died 20 times in Inferno Act 2 and paid 97k in repair costs. :noob:

What item was that? It is so hard to sell items on RMAH now since the drop rates were tweaked after 1.03 patch. I can't seem to sell things on gold AH either.


PornMaster should donate some gold to me ;)

It was Rare Pants with 200+ dex, 200 vit, resist all and resist fire ... now I'm naked LOL... I guess I'll pick up a "decent" pair of pants for gold in the AH again, I've said it before and I'll say it again, not spending a single penny to buy anything in the RMAH. I can't believe it actually sold for REAL cash... lots of idiots on the interwebs... I pretty much made the money back that I used to buy the game... lol :hat:

The idea of spending money for in-game stuff may be new to many especially since no game has incorporated it like D3 but its more common than you think. Lots of gamers buy gold, items, and even SKINS(look at League of Legends, it only changes the looks of characters). People buy "content packs" all the time I dont really see much difference. They both enhance gameplay experience for the player.

Its also an investment. My friend spent $500 in D3 so he can use the items to farm in inferno faster. He sold over $1000 so far. For him ,its a "summer job" lol. This was pre-patch though so I dont know how well he is doing now

i sold my account for $220 alone

...Sigh... miss the game

Oh I'm aware of buying expansions and DLC packs in many games. Most of the time though these skins and packs are just a few bucks here and there. It's just that it was never this "mainstream" where it's basically like an in-game eBay... and I'm still in awe that I sold one ITEM, a pair of pants, 1 measly piece of equipment out of 11 possible slots, for $55!... :seriously: ...

Then there are the other "gamers" who spend countless hours trying to "buy low, sell high" in the AH ... lol at these people ... it's like low-end stocks for kids ... training to hit up Wall Street? :suspicious:

Ridiculous ...
