I wasn't expecting it to be completely smooth for Diablo 3, but as it is it's really apparent that they just plain weren't prepared at all. It's like they're doing their stress testing on launch day.
These kinds of things are really hard to anticipate and provision for. If sales surpassed projections then that could be the answer right there. Friends of mine who don't even play PC games anymore were asking me about this. Actually one buddy of mine commented on picking it up for his Xbox on the way home, I didn't have the heart to break it to him.
Anyways back to the game for me!
