Open Beta weekends are terrible for poor students who have to work.

Won't bother downloading, no time for it unfortunately, would've tried a Demon hunter though.

Are you trying to say that people play Diablo games for a reason other than collecting better and better loot?

I'm not saying that at all, I'm just saying I don't care about playing 30 more hours so I can have 15% more magic find, and the game itself is sub-par at best. So I will not be getting it, and you are not missing out on anything if you cannot play it this weekend.

Pre-purchase Guild Wars 2, and see a real beta event next weekend.

Just got forced into playing this by some friends

What an incredibly boring game

Click enemy - click enemy - click enemy - click loot - click loot - click loot

Takes no skill, no interesting story, boring characters, dull setting...

In other words, it's Diablo 2 with marginally better graphics.

Just played until rescuing Cain as a Wizard. Pretty cool. Graphics are dated, but the rest of the presentation is really nice. Controls are great, sounds are amazing, animations and environmental destruction and such is cool. My favorite thing is how you can get combat achievements like killing 15 monsters at once or 5 monsters in 1 shot, and your guy says something. It's a good touch. I'm not far enough to see what the new skills system has to offer, but right now it seems far more limited than D2. Seems really solid, though. I dunno if I will actually buy it when it comes, but maybe.

I think you misread my comment. I'm saying that collecting better loot IS the reason people play Diablo games. I mean, it's fun too, but the draw is getting better and better. You know what other games are like that? MMOs. I don't see how saying 30 hours to get more magic find is any worse than 30 hours to get better items in an MMO. It's exactly the same. In the months that I've been playing the Diablo 3 beta, I've never gotten bored.

By the way, I have the Guild Wars Digital Deluxe version pre-purchased since the day it was available and I plan on playing the **** out of both games. I play games to have fun, not to simplify things and think about how I'm spending my time.

Diablo 3 is fun.

Guild Wars 2 is fun.

I will play both games. Simple as that.

GW2 is technically a MMO, and it's really got nothing to do with loot. Stats wise anyway. I mean I get the draw I have been playing MMO's since Ultima Online, however I just don't understand how re-skinning a 10 year old game is fun. I also never said you couldn't buy and enjoy the game, I just said I wouldn't. Sorry for having an opinion. I'll work on that.

If GW2 looked and felt exactly like GW1 then I would be giving that game crap too.

The original Diablo Team is now the team behind GW2.

I guess there's a little of that.
