If people are still having fun with it, then good for them.
Personally I raided for 3 years, and led a raiding guild for 1.5 of those years. I've had enough of MMOs, no matter what they are. For me I'm glad to be out of the scene. Too much time and effort, for very little real world payoff. |

Point of irony: Diablo 3 sold as well as it did, on the back of Diablo 2, which had a proper single player mode.
I predict any expansion for Diablo 3 will not come close to the original sales for the game. Blizz got fat and lazy, and I don't think they realize how much damage Diablo 3 did to them.

They know exactly what libraries Ubuntu is using, and it gives them a target that isn't constantly moving. People on distros like Arch, which update every day, will make do, they like tinkering with things.
I know one of the main contributors to Slackware has said he'll make sure Steam runs on Slackware. I think reasonable people see the logic in how Valve are doing this. |

nin wrote on Sep 26, 2012, 21:38: Ok, here we go:
Install Shock 2 from cd.
Patch to latest version (2.3).
Extract new_dark.zip and contrib.zip contents into main install folder (this overwrites shock2.exe).
Run shock2.exe
Optional: Read through cam_ext.cfg to see if you want to tweak anything. I recommend "d3d_disp_scaled_2d_overlay 640 480", as it makes the UI larger and easier to read from the MFD. Any of those changes you want to make go into cam.cfg file. (edit: Still monkeying around with the rez...it only seems to like 640 480?)
Extremely impressed. Works flawlessly on Win7 64, so far...there goes my weekend. Thanks for the heads up on that config file... Holy shit this person really added a lot of new features! Simply amazing. |

| I wonder who in the hell made these. It had to have been someone that used to work at Looking Glass. I installed System Shock 2, and am quite stunned how how nice this patch is for it. 1920x1080, and it's playing great. I know what I'm doing this weekend. |

As long as they're treating it like some e-sport that needs 100% balance, or tuning the drops to milk the AH this game will never be truly fun. I've sunk more time into than I care to admit, and have never found 1 useful legendary or set item. I can't help but think that without the RMAH they would be a little more forgiving with the idiot drop rates on those items.
After 2 days with Torchlight 2, my lvl 30 character has more "cool" gear than my 200+ hour witch doctor. |

They're doing this with Kickstarter because they can't get any publishers to fund a game in this style.
Wasteland 2 is using the Unity engine, and they probably saw the progress that had been made with it, and decided to use it too. The little scene they showed off from Wasteland 2 looks fine.
Unity engine added support for Linux a month ago, and one game has already shipped using its Linux support. It's no longer a hypothetical, it has happened.
A lot of strong opinions here, but you guys should read up on this stuff before you start criticizing everything about it. It's not like this is secret info. |

Recently someone asked them about being able to identify all of the items in their inventory in one shot, and someone from Blizzard responded with "We're trying to figure out a way to do this."
Oblivious. |

After playing this for 5 hours today, Diablo 3 is dead, buried, and uninstalled. If you're in the mood for an action RPG, I don't think there is anything better out there.
As a bonus Matt Uleman's music is there in all of it's glory, and really enhances the mood of the game. |
