[THG] Diablo 3 Beaten in Just 7 Hours? - Page 36

post #351 of 423
I think Diablo 3 is a very good game. My only concerns/wish is that it would have had more levels in "hell" and "heaven" , when i hear the word diablo, i think of the blazing lava and fire pits of hell. The previous two games D1 & D2 did have more hell levels/maps and longer/larger hell maps thus increasing the players duration of time in that hell atmosphere which is the most fun area of all diablo games to be playing in. Atleast for me, and probably a lot of other players, we cant wait to get to that part of the game and play/enjoy those areas the longest.

That area of concern would probably be my only semi-disappointment, cause Diablo 3 has very limited time in hell dungeons, i think consisting of only having 3 hell levels in which are a circular pattern with a descending stair well and 1-2 levels of making your way to destroy a heart. I just wish they would have made twice as many hell maps to really "signify" this is the biggest challenge/crowning/defining area of the game/franchise, that really show the embodiment of what makes the diablo franchise so special is your fight and struggle through the depths of hell.

I really hope they do release an expansion in which you have to fight that evil mage character that you helped bring back to life, but that leads me to believe those will be similar to arcane santuary maps from d2 and the ones already in d3. I wish they could incorporate that fight in mostly exclusive hell atmosphere for close 1/2- 3/4s of the game with the other areas leading you up to those defining stages/levels of the game. Who knows maybe the dark mage will revive the bosses of hell again.

All in all i think the game is very fun to play, just the amount of hell maps are very limited, also i think the diablo demon model used in this game looks like a skinny version of the alien queen from the alien movies, in diablo 1 and 2 he was a thick strong looking demon, now he looks like he has anorexia and is malnourished. At one time when i first saw him I kind of thought he was a talking velociraptor dinosaur then his name appeared as diablo. tongue.gif I will keep playing and look forward to a release of an expansion story line.

People who play diablo don't play it to "beat the game." They play it to build an awesome character, and that means getting awesome loot (since training skill trees and alotting stat points is out). True diablo fans will play the hell out of this game till they have all 5 classes with the best versions of the best gear available for that character. Anyone else is just a casual player.

I do not care what difficulty it is at. To beat a game that took years of development and finish it from 5 to 16 hours shows how little content there is. I think the real focus will be in pvp or they probably have more content and are waiting to release it as DLC to milk us even more.

And yet another person who has no freaking idea what he is talking about, yet feels the need to throw in his worthless 2 cents without finding out the truth.

I finished the nightmare difficulty with a monk and enjoyed the difficulty ramp up and better loot.  Started all over with a demon hunter since I got a little bored at the end with the same game mechanics (based off the same toon type.)  Love the game with a new toon.  Makes me look forward to rolling all types and going as far as I can stand with each.

The game is not worth the price. It would have been a better deal at $29-39. I for one quit shortly after joing the beta program last year. I just didn't see the value of paying for D2 again.

I could argue that no games save indy ones nowadays are worth the price you pay at $69 a pop, but what can you do, mommies kept buying kids games at console prices so the rest of us gets anally screwed.

you have to admit though, he does have a point. It's like there's a year of development per hour of content tongue.gif.
