In D2, public games were played at your own risk, you never knew when someone would turn hostile, the thrill of the hunt/being hunted is one of the most intense moments i've felt on a game. Dunno, I consider that a pretty stupid risk. "Oh look, some other asshole player killed my hardcore char, haha... that was so great..." I think Diablo 3 has a way better implemented hardcore plain and simply duo to the fact, that you can't just instant quit out of the danger if you want so. Your character stays on for 5 or 10 seconds, which means you cannot easily cheat the system like in Diablo 2. | ||

Your character stays on for 5 or 10 seconds, which means you cannot easily cheat the system like in Diablo 2. The stupidity was in the flaws(wp/tp traps, exit packets, mh, loot lock, etc). But a battle in the middle of an seemingly peacefull chaos run, damn, those were the times. Yeah it sucks when you die, but once you get your first kill, you never go back. ''There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.'' | ||

anyway, this is my idea for a HC WD. It might not deal dmg, but its supposed to tank/swarm while my friends go for more DPS oriented builds. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/witch-doctor#dWQYPT!VaW!YabcYZ | ||

1) It raises the stakes, so you have to be alert all the time. All your actions are taken to reduce risk. No charging into a mob unless you've made sure they aren't lightning enchanted. No forward teleporting. No running/weaving through monsters. Someone doing things like that make me cringe in the same way as when someone in Starcraft A-moves up a ramp without checking to see if there are sentries/bunkers at the top. 2) It makes your stats and gear important. You can't get away with having one majorly low resistance, and you notice the effects of damage reduction mods. You care very deeply about the difference between that last 10-15% chance to block. Softcore player (who don't PvP) can mostly muck by with whatever combination of gear, but you don't survive hardcore with that kind of carelessness. Regarding the "it's a waste of time if you die" argument: (1) All hardcore players understand that the value of your time spent playing a game is in how much fun you have, not how many items you collect. (2) As long as you're muling off extra items, it becomes gradually easier to create new characters as your gear collection grows. | ||

The leveling is way too slow to support it, D2 you could could play 100% legit and get 80 in a day so losing a char to a dc or something stupid sucked but it wasn't that big of a deal. Wow would be way much more of a time investment considering most take a couple weeks to get to that same level. | ||

it gives players a challenge, bragging rights, an amazing adventure. Why do people play hardcore? are you scared because you might die and it is permanent? some people like the challenge...seriously | ||
