Now this is probably for people who have:
1. Played the beta or
2. Has watched a lot of youtube videos and have a good idea of how the game will play.
Now I've played the beta for about a total of ~3 hours. Except for some huge hitbox issues that a recent patch has fixed, the game looks like it will be the 'next big hit' in its genre. On the other hand, being a huge fan of LoD, this game just doesn't give me the same satisfaction. How would you rate the game right now as it stands since this is the product (expecting no major changes) we will be getting for release?
I myself would rank it a 3. Now if someone asked me this question when Diablo 2 was about to launch, it would've been an easy 5 for how excited I was. Maybe I'm just no longer in middle school? What are your opinions

just whole overall gameplay doesn't really suit my taste, but for the sake of diablo and its plot, i'm buying it, much like sc2 :<
rated a 3

I'm really excited and I know it will take a lot of my time.
Haters will be haters: Try playing 1.00 vanilla D2 and compare it with 1.10+ and up LoD... you just played 5% of a beta build, ffs.

4.5 stars, would be 5 with more content(more skills, rune options, PvP at launch, not 0.2, but the game is SO DAMN FUN).

Taking a week off from work to set up the most epic LAN.
I'll make a thread with pics once everything is done.

Wait, did you say the hitbox mesh issue has been fixed? I guess I need to login to have a look, that was annoying me to all hell.
|
Give me runes back and I'll give it 5/5, till then 3/5 should be enough

I'd do this if LAN actually meant something. But as the game is now, LAN means nothing.

i like diablo series , and hack & slash games to play with friends so ill get it.
BNET could be better and theyre surely not reinventing the wheel with D3 , some nice additions here and there but hack & slash its what it is.
im MUCH more excited for gw2 , but doesnt matter ill play both and keep up with sc2 in the process , hope my friends dont forget me while im not there with them doing wathever they do xDDD

3 stars. i'll buy it only because it is diablo but blizzard should know that they are quickly pissing on the franchise in my mind.

5/5, because the developement team seems to understand the meaning of what hardcore gamers want. If what they are saying is true, the game might be fucking hard, and IMO that's what gaming is all about. I have not played sc2 for 1 year and a half because the game is amazing (I think there is some really obvious gameplay flaws and interface flaws), thus I had a fucking blast, I will never forget the joy I had when I achieve master(starting from silver), I will never forget my first match versus a pro.
I hope that d3 will gives me that passion that I lost, I hope to feel like a fucking boss upon killing the last boss on inferno, I hope to scream like a madman when I drop some super rare loot. At last, the teamplay in D3 might also be a great aspect that sc2 lacked.
TL;DR If the game is as hard as I think, it should be enjoyable.

5/5. There are a few small tweaks they could make to make the game a bit less clunky. But not enough to make my lower my rating to 4/5.
Best example I can think of is the screen where you choose your skills. I would much prefer to have the 6 skill slots on the left and to be able to see all the available skills (As a list or even buttons with mouseover text) on the right and drag them to they skill tabs. I really feel that being limited to only seeing 4 skills at a time and tabbing between the types of skills limits my ability to see the class as a whole for no real gain. They could still keep all the spells grouped with little subheadings like 'defensive' etc if they want. I just don't want to have to tab between them all to read them. Especially when some classes (ie monk) even have 2 separate tabs of skills which generate energy.

3 Stars. No pvp on launch? What joke.

What would make you happier, if they release without PvP or wait to release until they consider it ready?
5 stars for me. The only game I can think of that might pull me away from it is Guild Wars 2. I'm looking forward to playing either of them while watching sc2 :D

im getting rdy to set up a 4 person 4 day lan at my house with my buddies on may 15 gonna be sick cant wait 5 all the way
|
4 Stars.
Game looks very good but I have a few things I'd like to be fixed/improved through patches (like the no pvp)
If they manage to give a great PvP before Q4 and the game doesn't disappoint, 5 stars.
|
Having not played it but pre-orderded, I'm a little disappointed in recent announcments but I'll reserve judgement until it's out and properly patched.
|
I've not played the beta, but D2 is my favourite game of all time, and I'd be blasphemous not to blindly assume that D3 will be of similar quality, so I have to rate it 5/5 just by my own hopes and dreams
