hype definitely died down for me. will still buy and play it heaps, but haven't followed it religiously since the first week of beta.

like others said, i don't even care about getting into beta any more, finish skyrim into dota2 into diablo 3 release for me.

D3 did exactly the opposite thing SWTOR did. SWTOR had a NDA for really long time of Beta and this produced a huge hype! D3 released a 30min Beta with no NDA, so everyone knows the Game and this and absolutly no news destroyed the hype D3 had before the Beta.

If they don't at least follow the last step and let nearly everyone into the beta before release I probably won't even buy the game.

Well, the games just handled their marketing and hype differently. That's what we were discussing. Whichever game is better is irrelevant and remains to be seen.

I've played both betas and I came to the exact opposite conclusion (I played D1 and never tried WoW though).

I'm disappointed with my Diablo 3 beta experience. It lagged horribly on my new and very capable PC, so I had to play it on my Mac (where it ran very well). I was really hoping for another D1: a gruesome and brooding game that terrified and captivated me. Instead, I can't take D3 nearly as seriously because it feels cartoonish and bland (though that might be because I'm now much older than I was when I played D1).

By contrast, my swtor experience on a friend's computer was brief, but it felt majestic and interesting (I love voiced dialogue and any cheesy story ever). Again, this can be chalked up to our different backgrounds and personal experiences, but the bottom line is that for me personally, if you compare how I feel about the two games now to how I felt 6 months ago, my excitement has plummeted for D3 and jumped up quite a bit for swtor. I'll try D3 again once it's released because I still don't want to give up on it though. After how much I loved D1 it would be unreasonable to write off a new Diablo game simply because an early beta did not meet my high expectations.

Still super duper hyped, haven't lost 1 bit of excitement. Blizzcon got me a lot more hyped with the panel of the ingame Auction House and design process. Still considering buying the collectors edition though.

SWTOR beta is absolutely horrible... it's understandable as MMO beta's are very shaky, but it's probably one of the most unpolished /underdeveloped gameplay experiences i've had as of late.

I'm honestly not sure what expectations you had for the Beta. They never intended on having the Beta a full Act and huge amounts of gameplay, but rather just as a very small amount of Act 1 to give players a taste of what to expect.

People just expected the full game out of the beta. Then they blame Blizzard for "destroying the hype", when they destroyed it for themselves by thinking the beta was a lot more than just a beta.

I'm hyped as hell, D3 is gonna be awesome.

Not interested at all, Bought SC2 and i stoped playing it about 5 months ago, probably permanently.

Becouse of this i dont plan to buy D3 (saw many streams and i like more D2, Guid Wars...). Ofc i might change my mind eventually, but so far, 0 interest.

Well, it's so close to release that you CAN expect almost the full game out of it. It won't be changed much for the release at this point, they're 98% done. Considering how long they've been working on the game.

I'm very hyped after reading about the skills on the site. Definitely buying. I spent thousands of hours on D2, no beta though. ;(

Except you can't, because it's a beta of a game with a heavy single player/story component, which they obviously won't want to reveal.

A beta in a game like this is pretty much the equivalent of a Demo, but with the invites.

at this moment I haven't seen enough improvements from start of beta to justify buying it over say POE or Torchlight2
