People watch sc2 because it's directly competitive. Watching people play against each other is a much different thing from watching PvE content (even group-based runs). | ||

After seeing this Commentary from ForceStrategyGaming, I see myself watching some 2v2 games though. I did watch some D3 streams of the beta but mainly because I don't have access myself. And I just needed a D3 fix, | ||

They don't watch first person view of someone playing sc2 for that reason. When you watch any competition, do you watch from the player's perspective or do you watch freecam, where you can see both player's location? | ||

I can't say I'd be interested in watching someone play D3 in the initial weeks since I'll be playing myself, but I could see people who don't buy the game on release watching. | ||

Best memory was running into him in 2v2 and seeing my hunter buddy 3 shot him. I guess he wore the wrong gear into the match. Best of luck to him, and like people have said, if you're going to be playing that much with a monster computer then you might as well stream. | ||

Did anyone who is saying "what is the point of watching when I can play it" stop to think that he's awesome when he streams? If not just skill wise him and his friend krippi are very funny. I will be tuning in on my second monitor while I play not just to support him, but to enjoy his commentary and his insight into the game. People can stream more than just eSports... Get off your high horse if you think otherwise. I watched a little bit last night and you are right that they are both quite the characters. I too will probably have it on a secondary monitor just to see their progress. One thing that I don't like though is their overuse of "bro" so I might just have it muted. Hah! | ||

Thats ridiculously easy to test, just get two identical monsters, nova 1 4 times and nova 1 once and then frost beam both with identical wizards and time them, compare times. That seems like a really obvious thing to want to know, and they didn't know it. | ||

That seems like a really obvious thing to want to know, and they didn't know it. Frost nova doesn't inherently increase damage done to its targets; it's a rune (and a passive) that cause that debuff, neither of which were available in the beta. So I'm not sure how he would go about testing that, apart from simple guesswork. | ||

I am glad there are people like you in the world. First thing I thought listening to those vids where , this guy knows his games and seems really intelegent. Then the "bro's" started and I couldnt watch it with a streight face anymore. | ||

I will run through all of Normal in Single Player first, just so I get all the lore and rp'ness ofc! Then I'll probably start tuning into streams and checking who will become worlds first etc etc | ||

Best of luck to him, and like people have said, if you're going to be playing that much with a monster computer then you might as well stream. Kripp is a baller, and his Exodus videos on WoW were cool. I got to raid casually with Exodus on Ysondre for a little while. Kinda wish I wasn't bad back then, though. Kripp's content is high quality and underrated. edit: unfortunately he started saying bro LOL | ||

Most of the tactics in this game will be situation based, and the situations will come from what affixes the unique mobs happen to have in nightmare/hell/inferno. | ||

And please stop using "must be trolling," because you obviously don't understand why he wouldn't need a move binding. Let me explain to you, and to him perhaps if he is reading this thread, why force move is the second most important bind in the game. If you played beta you must have noticed the gigantic hit box on monsters as well as their relatively fast movement already in the kindergarten bash of Act 1 normal. Now suppose you are at 5% life and need to get the fuck out of wherever you are, or there is a health globe you need to pick up (spawned by your ranged partner) or you just want to move rapidly and precisely like any skilled player would. When there are monsters adjacent to you you cannot move with "hold move" command because you will click on a monster hitbox and attack. If the screen is also filled with fast moving monsters, as it most certainly will be already in lower difficulties let alone inferno, clicking any point on the ground you consider "empty", if you can even find such a point since enemies are clearly seen swarming all over the screen in almost every gameplay video, incurs the risk of accidentally clicking the hitbox of a monster running, leaping or teleporting towards you. Even if you are melee, you will take at most a couple of steps (that's an extremely generous assumption), towards the monster and the place you in fact want to go before it reaches you, which will result in you attacking the monster and dying. In the video, Krip sounds like a guy who considers himself "leet" and "plays to win". How he could have missed such an obvious requisite for decent character control (while custom binding stuff like the skill panel) is beyond me. I hope this makes things just a little bit clearer. Unless you want to be a sloppy player with bad mechanics, you will bind this key and learn to use it, and fast. | ||

Then you use your leap ability, and jump on the health globe, or jump out of harms way. There is a thousand different ways you can escape and get out of harms way as a melee character, and there is absolutely no need for a move key when your main attack is a melee attack. The hitboxes on monsters don't cover half the screen and are in fact very small and very precise. They have to be, because there will be a lot of monsters on screen, so I don't know what you're imagining with those huge hitboxes. Without very precise hitboxes, this game wouldn't be playable as a melee class. There is absolutely no need for a separate move key when your melee attack does the exact same thing. | ||

Even a melee character can benefit because there are times where you have to leap out and GTFO, and leap->force move is much safer than the 1% likelihood that you leap->accidentally click on some random worm and die. For a gladiator-level hunter in a world-class raiding guild, I don't see any reason for why he wouldn't bind it, even if it's not used much. | ||
