Hang on, they are charging for the Necro? Really? Oh man, has Blizzard gone down the tubes or what...

yeh i thought this shit was free... WTF dude

They did say they were willing to put in whatever classes people wanted afterwards. Hoping for Druid and Assassin. Sounds like Druid is next on their list, potentially.

Haven't gotten into D3 much (since vanilla and the expansion), and thought seasons pointless, until recently... I'm sorta hooked...

Also playing HOTS and Starcraft 2 mainly, lately. All 3 blizz games. Very unlike me, lol.

Yeah $5 maaaybe $10 and I will consider it. But a character and stash space isn't worth any more $ than that if there's no new reasonable amount of new content to play through.

Wow, they are selling such a plethora of digital shit! Sign me up!!!

Has? Dude they been long gone for a long time now. Blizz is a former shell of itself, they dont make games worth a shit anymore. They are more concentration with over-watch now or hearthstone.

I've pretty much lost all respect for them, and dont support them any more.

The storytelling was nice, the lore objects and atmosphere were great.

IMO The storytelling was shit. The atmosphere and art direction didn't really fit together, it was like a kid game compared to Diablo1 and 2. The STORY itself was pretty good, however it was told in a Disney fashion. Which is I guess all the rage these days. Just look at Overwatch, HOTS and Hearthstone. The expansion act was better, but still kids stuff compared to the predecessors.

I bought it, I played it for quite a bit, but in the end it didn't hold my attention like the first two games did, and it left a bad taste in my mouth. The Blizzard of today may have retained the production values of the Blizzard of old, but there is something missing. The love of gaming and the game itself, is one thing that is missing. The respect towards its fans, and especially towards the legacy the older founding members of Blizzard left, is another.

And even with the Reaper DLC I think the campaign is ridiculously short...

Hoped they'd develop one more expansion that would make the whole game more of an experience. The storytelling was nice, the lore objects and atmosphere were great.

and after you have bought it for 15-25$, you start the season with him/her. ~3h until 70, 10h until GR80 solo clear, then paragon farm for.. reasons.

you buy a model with some new icons and a bit of new art in a game you completely know and where you'll be grinding away like always. the fluff will wear off fast.

it is sad.

The gameplay of the Necro is good enough to pay for, provided you are still interested in the game of course. Not 20 bucks....maybe more like 10 or so? I am sure it will be more than that though.

I'd pay 5.

I'm betting it'll be 20 or 30 though. They've been hyping and working on this too long to not charge an absurd amount of money for it.

Path of Exile's beta for the expansion starts in 2 days! So hyped for it.

Basically selling stash tabs in a fully priced and paid for game.

Blizzard, go and F........

$20 for adding a character class?? r u krazee brah?!?!?!

Doing the beta for this now, I could see maybe 20 bucks for this and that's about it. If it had a story like the last expansion I could see a little more.

If they roll out a new expansion I might be interested, but I don't see myself paying for this.
