I am considering leveling a toon on Diablo2 again
I just got done watching the trailers and such for Diablo3.

Sometimes mindless killing has its purpose. No plev, no necessary quest... just mindless killing.

Has anyone done this lately? Played Diablo2 that is.

Is it like stepping back into time, or is it still as fun?

:hi:

PS: oh.. and is Battlenet still full of hacks?

1. I never bought Diablo 2, but I still play the first Diablo sometimes.
I'll admit, I play it more to hear that music than anything. There are way better RPGs out there, but Diablo had the coolest music. It practically hypnotized me somehow.

2. you seen the Diablo3 stuff?
http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/

I wonder what route they'll go.

I hope it isn't a mmorpg. There is always such a class struggle ;)

:D

3. I still have a WoW character somewhere
I need to level it to 80 but I'm not ready yet to lose myself in a mmorpg yet.

7. Nah I'm a one kind of crack kind of guy
Everytime I'd try to play another RPG i'd feel guilty for cheating on WoW. But for me in WoW mindless killing of npc's got boring so mindless PVP was the way.

4. I played I and II but I cannot
beat diablo in II !

I'm looking forward to playing III when I get it :)
I only play private games with my nephews and my husband. I've never joined any open games on Battlenet.

6. The trailer seems cool
I remember seeing the "gameplay" video about the barbarian over a year ago.

They may never really do Diablo3 :D

:hi:

8. I know, but I really want mine
:)

We played a lot of different games WoW , Heroes of Might and Magic I thru V didn't like IV. I don't mind V but I really like #3.
Age of Empires was good too.

My favourite always will be Diablo.

18. I used to play Age of Empires for hours on end.
I would set up my own scenarios that would be next to impossible to win, then type bigdaddy 50 times and go to town. The only downside to that was when the other priests would convert them to their team. Then, I had to make more. Hoyohoyo was a fun one to use too.

20. D2 Socket fillers
Perfect sapphires. Ice damage. My favorite. My favorite in most games, to be honest. Not much better than slowing down your enemies at the same time as you do damage.

21. I installed it on my PC at work
I installed it on my PC at work and have been playing during my lunch hour. Kinda fun so far (I've never played it before), but I've only been playing it this week.

I have learned one really important lesson though-- when the hot receptionist asked me what I was doing as she passed by, I should have said, "just surfing..."

But noooo-- I had to go and tell her what I was actually doing. Now all the twentysomething hipper-than-thou guys are telling me to do this and this and this in the game, and all the hot girls are rolling their eyes at me.

Being a nerd-- "every time I try to get out, they puuullll me back in!"
