kavazovangel: Preorder Diablo 3 and play something else until it is released. :p
timppu: Joking aside, for some reason Diablo 2 (fortunately) didn't leave me hungry for Diablo 3. Maybe it would have if I were big on online multiplayer.
In Diablo 2 it was already infuriating how you couldn't just save and drop the game on short notice without penalties, I just didn't feel like stopping the game 1AM because I wanted to reach the next waypoint so that I wouldn't neessarily have to fight the same monsters again.
Some Diablo 3 beta article suggested that currently Diablo 3 is even worse: it doesn't let you even pause the game, so if you need to go somewhere, either leave it running or exit the game (and lose progress, apart from maybe exp points and items).
I hope the other old Diablo clones didn't mimick those features from Blizzard games.
Jamyskis message reminded that I should really play the Metal Gear (at least Metal Gear Solid 1-3) games at last. Earlier I got distracted in the beginning parts of PSX MGS.
Diablo 3 will be a giant disappointment, it's just the kind of company Blizzard is these days, look at what became of the Warcraft and Starcraft stories in SC2 and WoW. Blizzard are utterly incapable of writing dark fantasy, hell they are utterly incapable of writing anything that isn't the most generic "good guys win, every time" sickening crap you've ever seen.
