Diablo III Clubhouse

well diablo has never had a very thick plot to it ... D2 I think was less that that ...

No seriously I NEVER played the first games. Why is a game like this so short and if its that short why all the hype? I have no idea about this series or how it works in game. Like BF3 single player is like 6 hours long but the multi I have almost 200 hours in. Thats worth 59.99. What makes this game so epic? Not trollin here. Learnin'!

its got a cult like following ... I think the fun in D2 was hunting down all the gear for your characters. You could easily get power leveled in like 2 hours be ready for baal runs ... then hunt for gear for months.
I think $59 is askin too much but the majority of games are going to that price segment anyways ...

Thank you. So you play the same plot over and over again to max out each class? Is this how it works? Seriously I'm a noob to this game.

In D2 they have 5 acts ... then 3 hardness levels (later on they patched in different things but I quit before that) Once you beat the 5 acts you went on to the next hardness level. Once you beat the final act on the hardest setting you were basically there to just farm for gear in a few different locations

Now in D3 they supposedly got rid of most that and are letting you find good gear anywhere. So you can play whatever act or region you like to run through and still find the good stuff.


But the same thing will probably be in D3 is that when you beat the game fully, you will not be max level either ...

Hmmmm sounds like a game you play through once and put it on a shelf. I love Titans Quest but I only played through it once.

eh, it could be for some people ... if you are not much for farming gear and having fun that way, this may be a questionable game for you.

If you want story and plot ... Guild Wars 2 may be your game ...

I just thought it was more vast then what I understand. I thought it was like a 100 hour game or something just to finish it the way people have been talking.

 

[copenhagen69]

It could be with D3 ... maybe not 100 hours but a lot longer than 15-20 hours. They have shaken up the diablo we use to know. So no one really knows for sure until the game is finally released.

I'm kinda dedicated to buying it as a fellow TPU member is gonna be down due to shoulder surgery and D3 is a simple click game (Not a FPS) and that's all he will be able to do for a while. I said I would buy D3 so he doesn't play alone. Just not liking how D3 is sounding so far. Has me worried.

Don't forget doing it all again with a different class

MM, if you didn't go through Titan Quest a second or third time with a different class because it would be "too much of the same", there's a good chance you won't go through D3 more than once. Until the price drops, might not get your money's worth. Torchlight I/II are pretty cheap!

 

[TheMailMan78]

I'm depressed. I'm already dedicated to buying this damn game. I hope there is mods or something to make it last longer.

I'm getting this, so Dave won't be by his lonesome regardless. looking forward to a good loot game.

LOL, yep doing with it different classes was part of it too. Although D3 you wont need 2-3 sorcs or zons or barbs anymore ... One class can do it all this time.


Torchlight would be fun but it seems to cartoony and bragging about your amazing gear in torchlight just doesnt seem the same lol :shadedshu

 

[AsRock]

do you remember what items? I ran through that dang level probably 1000 times and never saw anything worth keeping lol

Same here, the only thing i found was friends gear due to a lighting cow or some thing lol..

just like BF3, its all about the multiplayer.

And you can do it with totally different builds within each class: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/2868800573. They are a "tad bit off" but if you read the topic, you may get more detailed info about this.

I put hundreds of hours into d2, and only made maybe 3 characters. ok maybe a few more, but actual use, was only 3 chars.

as mussels said, the time spent comes from multiplayer. it is really hard to explain, but it is definitely not a long game because there is SO much content (there is a lot though) - it's a long game because you get addicted and can't stop.

just one more run, that's all. i might get that awesome sword, or helm, or shield, or ring, or boots, etc. just one more run, i'll get enough xp to try that new skill. just one more run.

and the 20 hours is if you play solo and do nothing but bang out content the whole time. i highly doubt you will have beaten act 5 normal in under 20 hours, and once you do beat it that's only a 3rd of the game - you play nightmare/hell to get more skills to try, and better gear to use. there's still more new stuff to experience, but the main story will be over. it's not just replay for the sake of it though, you will actually want to keep playing into nightmare and hell, as it does feel different. monsters are harder and smarter, and it takes different combinations of skill and strategy to survive at later levels. that's where the real fun starts

i would look at it this way mm, if you only put the 20 hours in, then you lucked out and didn't get addicted to a game that most people will lose the next few years to
