If they were ready by now, then they would have announced the release date to be 18 of march 2 months ago  .Patience dude. People waited 10 years for this game.. and just seeing a date actually makes me jizz my pants. | ||

Day 1 patch dude, it is not a finished product and also they want people to all preorder the game, hyping it up. And then on release day they can announce 2mmillion copies sold, even though its over a course of 2 months.

Rush through to nightmare and above? Play slow and absorb it all? Gather your party of friends and venture forth? Unlock hardcore mode and hit that instead? I can't wait  | ||

After that I'll start a HC character and level him in tandem with my normal (now nightmare) one, and focus on finding fun encounters and loot. | ||

I can't wait Absorbing the story, exploring on the 1st play through then going for fastest progression after normal. One character for myself, one character for friends (I usually play a lot more than friends). Hardcore after at least one softcore character into inferno | ||

I can't wait I'll definitely play through normal solo, talking to every NPC and basically trying to get everything unique out of it. After that the actual challenge slowly begins and I might join up with some people from work and uni for the fun of the fight. Definitely planning on getting to Inferno kinda quickly and then play party only. | ||

On release you'll install it, then you'll download all the patches that'll actually finish the game to release standards. | ||

Probably it's true, cause Blizzard is a big company, while Grinding Gear Games is a new little company. It's normal that they can't compete with the graphics for example. But I'm pretty sure, PoE is an Action RPG game with real builds, and an interesting game overall. Diablo3 have a cool graphic or gameplay, but nothing more. Blizzard is not interested to social aspects (watch the chats of d3 beta and sc2 or lack of clan features), not interested to RPG Aspects (only items builds in real money and too easy switch skill), not focused on PvP aspects (I can agree about this, but maybe they should to care more about it, because that is a funny part of the game. The PvP delay is significant), not overall interested to the end game, what remains of the game? After 1 month maybe you killed all the monsters, and then? D3 remain a farming based game, just u have to farm, and improve ur items without a real objective, because farming should to be not an objective but should to be a passage for realize one or more objectives, that they could to add with patches or expansions. What I watch, Blizzard is not caring about a lot of important feauters in order to make a longeval game, but to follow the new market wich is optimized to gain more money possibile in few months. This is my opinion. Hey yo I don't play games but I hear and judge. Yeah, so I hear that there's this company right and another little company. SO the big company must make a mass-market product and the little one creates a low-production good game. Serious now: I've played the betas of both games, D3 is better. End of story. | ||

While I completely agree that this guy judging games he's never played is foolish and makes his opinion completely irrelevant, I'm gonna have to agree to disagree with your statement, going off of my alpha and beta experience of both games I see D3 as the challenger looking to prove something against POE here. No doubt D3 will out sell POE no questions asked, you could put the Blizzard and Diablo title on an empty box and it's pre-orders alone would out sell nearly every other game on the planet that doesn't have a COD sticker on it, but will it last? Will D3 be able to keep the fanbois playing for more than a month or two after the next random popular title game comes out? Will POE completely fold under their marketing strategy and never be heard from again, we don't know. So making arguments over things we don't know is pointless. Comparing the two betas I see the game appealing to two different extremes while of course there will be some overlap and like myself many people will simply play both to satisfy their needs. I see D3 as the causal time killer, from the second you press create character you are an unstoppable killing machine, a god in the world. You can do the beta naked hc without ever dropping below 90% hp, who knows maybe there is some massively steep slop coming up that just throws everyone off the deep end and the game ends up relatively challenging before wasting too much time, but probably not. In all likelihood it will be a slowly ramping up of difficulty that doesn't get to relatively easy before the end of normal. No worries of having to build a character, everything is done for you, stats, skills, talents, all you have to worry about is picking up shiny loot and kicking the shit out of demons. PvP is still "Soon TM" so hard to really count it into the mix cause it could be a normal soon or a blizzard soon aka we'll throw it in the next expan to get people to come back to the game. A pvp that resides only in arenas. On the other you have POE which aims towards the more hardcore crowd and focus on the point of character customization to an extreme, to a level that can be seen as alienating to causal gamers, literally hundreds of choices to tweak a character to your play style. A game that throws you into the not so shallow water from the start, today there was a beta HC ladder race and chat was full of people dying before ever getting to lvl 6 and forums full of vet players giving stories of how they lost their top characters and theory crafting on ways to tweak them so they can hopefully make it further next time. A sample of PvP is already in the game and is quiet entertaining, with more in the works. If I've never played this game before and you told me it was D3 from Blizzard I wouldn't even bother to think twice about it and would just continue enjoying an amazing game. A pvp system planned to include everything from dueling, instanced war grounds to all out world pvp in which you can hunt down your enemy, kill the bastard and loot his gear. Would go into more detail but the wife is rushing me out the door to go drink green beer... | ||
