Not to defend this game because I dislike the genre (click click loot) and hate the online requirement, but...
1) Moderators know nothing.
2) What is in the box is completely irrelevant now-a-days, especially for a game like this.
1. I meant Community Manager (ala. Krowen) so I disagree with you. They are given enough information to keep the community informed (that's their job). Sure I can understand companies not wanting to feed ALL the info to that positon but in this case, I find no reason that they would speak anything other than what's actually happening.
2. This I agree with... I forgot the whole online patching/updating, etc. It's not unusual now a days to purcahse a game 'zero-day' or even 'zero-hour', install it and find that the brand new shiney game you just purchased updates online before you ever get in the game for the first time... it's a good thing I supppose. As non-game developer, you can never have enough updates!
*** I admit, I'm
personally a big fan of D3 especially, after the open beta. I am also a huge fan of D1 and D2 but, after Monday I loaded up D2 to play and after about an hour found myself wanting to play D3 instead... maybe I'm part of Blizzard's target group
