I bought a Collector's Edition simply because it was Diablo, not because I really expect to play it for very long. I'm really more excited about Torchlight 2.
Frankly, all of these "Activisioned" press releases about how wonderful Blizzard is are starting to look a little suspect.

with all the negative view on real money auction house, it looks like its not stopping people from buying millions and millions and millions of diablo 3 copies worldwide.
Told everyone I met that PVP won't be in the game at lauch, (because it won't be).
Saw a lot of shocked faces and people saying they were going to cancel their pre order.
Diablo 3 is looking more and more like a rush job cash grab. A real shame.
That's bullshit. Diablo 3 is not rushed. It's exactly the opposite. People were QQing about how it was taking ages and they postponed implementing the PvP bit because they didn't want to rush. It will be introduced in a FREE patch before you start QQing about DLCs.
Mission in life: Vanquish all MMORPG.com trolls - especially TESO, WOW and GW2 trolls.

Personally I don't care, nor play much PvP.
Thus, it is a win for me if they can release the game EARLIER without PvP. I really don't want to wait for PvP.
I agree. Also calling D3 a rush job is about the most ignorant thing I've ever heard.
Yeh, not only it is not rushed, it has gone through more polishing (i.e. total game mechanics system change) than most other games. In fact, i have yet heard another game having such extensive changes & polishes.

So you just started mentioning, to completely random strangers, that there won't be PvP at launch?
You sound like the annoying sales clerk who keeps hounding someone after being repeatedly told that no help is needed. It's not a secret that PvP won't be in at launch, and why the hell would people cancel a preorder based on the ramblings and ranting of a complete stranger?
A rush job? That's fucking hilarious. Could you be any more ignorant?
Blizzard deserved this for making top quality games....ONLY top quality games.
I have not played or heard of a bad game made by them. In my opinion, there is no other PC games producing company like Blizz.
I bought almost all their games and have never been disappointed.
Gratz Blizz, keep them coming...cant wait for Titan
Riiiiiiiight. The only thing Blizzard does well is dish out easy-faceroll-lol mode content.
Cataclysm was crap, MoP is crap, D3 is crap (in D3's defense, the devs that worked on D1 & D2 did not work on D3. But to anyone who has been in beta, that's blatantly obvious). And what makes you think the same development team is going to produce anything in the future other than crap?
Titan? Really? You don't even have a clue what Titan is gong to be so how can you be so excited? If Blizzard doesn't hire some real talent and change their whole way of thinking, Titan will also be crap.

Oh you missed the last Blizz-hate train of the day, be another by in the morning, but hey stick around we don't dont care how many internetz-points you have here.
apparently, D3 will be pretty hardcore on the harder difficulties. the only face-rollable games theyve released are the post TBC WoW expansions, which was just pure greed for more subs, i.e. mass appeal
Why couldn't they come up with a decent PVP system in 4 years of development? Answer is: They don't care about it. PVP isn't very good when just tacked on, good PVP games are designed around it. PVE MMORPG games get boring real quick, especially when players chew through content like they do. I dunno, I just don't get it.
Are you a Pavlovian Fish Biscuit Addict? Get Help Now! I will play no more MMORPGs until somethign good comes out!

Maybe this will help you get it:
Diablo is not a PvP oriented series.
Did that help? Or do you honestly feel that the hostile toggle button in D2 was "PvP"?
Any other game / developer drops PVP right before release, people would be up in arms and threatening false advertisement lawsuits. Blizzard does it, and they are geniuses. It's clear how people view Blizzard and the "games" they produce.

LOL Blizzard fangirls are the best.
No PvP at release even after 10 years of development. Less Character custimisation, and Diablow type cartoon 1998 graphics. Its too bad the more creative old developers left, the could have made something as good as this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8q-OV2ix_HU

You're dead wrong - TERA just did it and people received it just fine.
Blizzard must be doing something right to have this many blatant haters. As some comedian said, if you don't have any haters, then you're not doing it right.
Even putting "games" in quotations like they aren't games, they must be something else. lol.. haters are funny.

I'll echo this a bit..
It is one of those things where they either make millions of people happy and release without pvp or delay the game more months to please the 50 or so mmorpg.com haters who claim they won't ever touch the game.
Right, amazing gaming companies always take almost 10 years to develop a sequel, almost completely borrowed from their previous titles, and can't possibly fit PVP in for a timely, albeit 3 quarters late, release. Go Blizzard, you are setting the bar for mediocre.
Alot of fanboys, its not on the merit of diablo 3 being a decent game, because its not tbh. Its also the reason swtor got the amount of subs it has: fanboys. Don't even try to argue this please you know its true.
Being a pessimist is a win-win pattern of thinking. If you're a pessimist (I'll admit that I am!) you're either:
A. Proven right (if something bad happens)
or
B. Pleasantly surprised (if something good happens)

Blizz said at the start of the year pvp would not be in release and will be patched in shortly after release, loads of time peeps to cancel preorders. Let's not be silly.

Its Diablo 3..... its name hold a lot of power
Marketting is a HUGE part of mmorpg success.
Seriously my MOM (puts her blackberry down on the table and types out texts) and she is 61 yrs old....
knows Diablo 3 is coming out on the 15th.
I don't even like Blizzard all that much anymore... but geez hate all you want that's almost case study awesome.
I was at microcenter the other day.
Told everyone I met that PVP won't be in the game at lauch, (because it won't be).

I didn't buy a WoW annual pass, am not subscribed to WoW, and did not pre-order Diablo...
but I still play StarCraft 2

I'm extremely glad you won't be playing.
A rush job? D3 has been in development for almost 4 years. How long would it take if they took their time? 10 years?
the only thing worse than the hate posts are the absolutely retarded hate posts

So you kinda just walk around in computer stores bashing a game you don't like trying to get complete strangers to not play it?
What a fulfilling life you must lead.

-Battlefield 1942 is masterpiece...BF2 and BF3 is crap
-Diablo 1 is masterpiece... D2(i dint liked it) and D3(il not even try) are just regular not mmo games,so whatever
-WoW was a masterpiece...Blizzard just dint followed the mmo wrold evolution (sandbox contents,no nerfs,skill based,etc) today its crap
Blizzard is a master in 2 things...
1- make good games
2- Ruin them
WoW 4ys,EVE 4ys,EU 4ys
FH1942 best tanker for 4years
Playing WWII OL for some years untill now
many other for some months
