this, the game is pretty much a remake of d1 and d2. the scenarios, the mobs, overall is a sweet game, but i think everyone was especting a little more. i wonder how long until the pvp patch hits.
and yeah, god damn the dialogue is awfull t.t

Got up at 3 this morning. Struggled for about an hour to get online. Played non-stop all day, with the exception of a 2 hour nap at 2pm. Beat the game about an hour ago.
Overall, the gameplay is incredible. Can't believe I didn't see a single unique/set piece throughout all of normal mode.
Story was bland and predictable though. Won't spoil anything, but don't even let that comment bother you because the game is worth playing through regardless.
Belial boss fight? WTF? Heh... I think Blizz likes putting the hardest bosses in Act 2.

EU Down for ~1hour
We're implementing the same fixes the Americas region got for EU now, and expect maintenance to last for about another hour.

finished Act 1
+ Show Spoiler +I think Blizzard definitely did The Butcher justice. I think I died 4 times soloing with my Witch Doctor and switched a skill or two to better prepare for the fight. I wonder how many people died to him when they first met him on Hardcore.
I figured the Fallen Man was a fallen angel but I didn't know it was going to be Tyrael although that would have been the obvious choice.
on to Act 2

My verdict right now is: great gameplay, awesome environments, but bad story-writing. The story is just a hodgepodge of recycled classic Blizzard tropes and storylines, and the story dialogue is not very enticing. IMO the followers have the best dialogue in the game - they feel just barely similar to a real person, compared to the quest characters who come off completely flat. Also, all of the plot twists are obvious as soon as a character is introduced. I hadn't even spoiled myself that + Show Spoiler +, but come on, how the hell do you explain + Show Spoiler +him appearing in all your meetings with Kulle. Since when was the kid a magician?

I've witnessed the death of 4 HC characters so far :O It's still normal difficulty and I'm getting scared XD
|
I was routinely bouncing between 150-450 ms for a couple hours. But during non peak hours I almost always got sub 100 in the beta. Servers are a mess atm.
down for maintenance.

You need to get ahead of the gear curve. Thats the only way to make it through it on HC. Im playing on normal but with just a few lucky item drops I went from 8k Health to 14k and 1k dps to 2k. Was dieing all the time before and now I'm just steamrolling the game. Even now I have to pay attention not to die since some things can basicly 1 or 2shot you. With around 9 k hp I was oneshotted by belial in NM.

i randomly got kicked off about 10 minutes ago and now i'm getting errors 75 and 3003. i have my friends on skype and they're still in the same party, playing as if nothing happened. this seriously makes me wish i didn't waste my money on this fucking game. so fucking frustrating i can't even stand it
