Diablo III is available since yesterday so we offer you not less than six gameplay videos from the beginning of the game. Thanks to Salocin for capturing these videos for us.

You have to be online to play a single player game (unless you want co op).
Such an idiotic decision.
And if its busy, you have to wait on a list so there is free slots lol.

Nice artwork though.

To be honest, i'm a bit disappointed at how short a distance this game is from D2 given that it's been 11 years. It's fun, but, not sure it's worth the $60 price tag.

Indeed, I played a while in the beta and decided it wasn't worth the $60 and the always-online bullshit. Unfortunate; I really wanted to like this game.

But guys, its sort of a MMORPG.

You already knew this, is your fault.

Don't blame Blizzard, they are awesome!!

I wish I could pay at least $100 dlls for this game and I think is just so amazing that even though you can own the game I mean you payed for it, you can't play it offline.

Thats like the future I want to go next gen.

Wow, you're a tool.

But so is anyone else who is bitching about online only and who bought the game anyway. Make informed purchases and don't support shit you don't like.

Complicated, I know.

YES! Know every single thing about a game before buying it! You should know what you're getting into, you signed a contract!

BTW, none of us have bought the game because we knew. But what about the not-so-hardcore people? No sympathy for them?

Why would I blame anyone but the consumer for being uninformed? If you don't know what you're buying than you deserve to get shafted.

I'm not really a big fan of D3's online only design, but there is no reason to defend stupid consumers. If you buy something you are actively approving it. And if you can't be bothered to do a little research into the product you're purchasing, well, you probably deserve to go home with a box full of shit.

I think that's basically what Raip was saying in the post you quoted him in, wasn't it?

It was, except he was sarcastically mocking my comments from the "what's up" box earlier.

I agree you all knew it's online, none of you liked it, yet you supported it by buying it. Smart. You encouraging them to use this shit in their feature games. What's worse, you showing other developers that this trick works. So next time you buy your usual single player Elder Scrolls or whatever, you'll get this.

I seriously didnt know this until it came out and i read it on Neogaf D3 thread.
I just looked at alot of gameplay videos to know I was liking what I saw and wanted to play it since I was getting into the genre, then this crap news came at me...i laughed and all interest went away.

Say your broadband company comes with a few issues and you were online and playing diablo 3. Internet goes off (yes it can happen, imagine that) and so does your single player game and now you cant play it and get kicked out lol

yes yes yes we all know how online DRM works nothing we can do but take it up the arse i'm afraid so pretty much STOP GOING ON ABOUT IT!
and discuss more pressing issues like

the is "ok"...that is all :( act 3 is the best by far, the other 3 acts are just ...meh.

The problem is this game IS diablo 2 but pretty, which is bad because.. ITS DIABLO 2 BUT PRETTY! the genre has not moved on, the franchise has not moved on

its stale, and a bit Mass Effect 2 in terms of the RPG aspect.

To me, the game is good, like D2 ? dunno...
I like it (i don't have it), i have my computer always connected to the web, but,
sure if i need to wait a free slot to log in.. well... that's bad, rly bad..
Someone saysD3 is a mmorpg, in wich way ??? it's just an online co-op nothing more...
still a good game to me, but there are a lot of real mmorpg out there, and i'm sure you know we need to play just 1 mmorpg (cause an mmoprg takes a lot of time).. well.. maybe 2.. :D just my 2 cents..

No you DONT have to wait for free slot, thats just internet bullshit.

The only issue regarding logging on was launch day "error 37" lol but that has been patched now.

So what...there is no "queue" list? You can play anytime as long as you are connected to online? Thats atleast one good news hehe.
