Please will you tell me the meaning of them? Please tell me the one and only reason that video games are fun and enjoyed by so many people? There has to be an incredibly brilliant philosophical response coming from someone who clearly DOES understand games. | ||

If I were to somehow in a perfect world be GUARANTEED that the game would always run smoothly, I would play hardcore. The risk of lag adds to the challenge. In WoW I played on PVP servers only, because sometimes when the Alliance was present in a contested area, I had to go somewhere else to play. This made the game more unpredictable and added to the fun. If you get online in D3 you will get a feeling about the "online weather" (lag conditions.) If it is not too good, you can decide to play in lower level areas only, to farm some blue items you can break down to get more crafting materials. Or you have to decide to play a softcore char instead or not play D3 at all and rather ladder in SC2. If you still can get a D3 hardcore char to level 60, you will feel great. | ||

I'd rather enjoy long term and get to explore all endgame possible to me, instead of having to make characters over and over and over and over again trying to play in inferno | ||

Also they cant add RMAH to HC just becasue imagine situation where Battle.net goes down (and we all play sc2 and we know its not impossible) all HC chars that are currently ingame are dead, they would be sued to refund money that people spent on items. | ||

I'd rather enjoy long term and get to explore all endgame possible to me, instead of having to make characters over and over and over and over again trying to play in inferno Why should I quit the game? At the time my level 45 HC char dies, I have a large stash of items I can use for other chars. The rule that any chars which is played will die eventually could even lead to play more since it keeps things fresh as one need to create a new char more often. If you play softcore, you will probably end up having each class in either gender and maxed to level 60 and play only inferno. The only real loss when a char dies in HC is the items lost on the character. But this keeps the economy going since there will be a constant demand of items. | ||

i love hard games, i want to be punished if i fail, and i want others to be punished when they fail. i love to have to consider risk vs reward. and i love the feeling of fear to lose everything, and the adrenalin that comes with it. all this together makes a game so much more exciting for me. (i have my roots in a pk-based MUD, without any loot-restrictions) i've played for about 3 years, always like this: * HC for some months - lost everything / ladder-reset * then/between a LITTLE bit softcore to relax or with some friends rinse and repeat so, after doing this for 3 years, i made the decision to stop with hardcore. it was a mixture of boredom (3 years is quite a time), new time-schedule, and, yes, also frustration. following, i TRIED to play softcore casually, but it felt like the most boring $hit i had ever done. it didnt feel like "relaxing from hardcore" anymore. it was just random stupid senseless button-smashing *without ANY risk*. so i didnt play HC anymore and couldnt play softcore, i felt nothing, my friends really tried to make me play, but it didnt work. thats how d2 died. (yes, i will play hardcore in d3) | ||
