Diablo 3

[Rooks Bailey]

Well, today is the big day. Blizzard has released their next magnum opus, Diablo 3. Has anyone pre-ordered it? Or, even better, playing it yet? If so, what do you think of it?

Here's a "What is Diablo 3" vid:



Also, a cool intro:



I have no doubt I will be picking this up at some point. In the mean time, I am going to *try* and wait a week or two and give Blizzard a chance to squish some bugs and let the servers cool down. I'll keep busy by finishing my Torchlight campaign.

PS: Just realized I put this in the RTS forum for some strange reason. I think I read RPG. If a mod wants to move this to general gaming, I would be most appreciative.

Looks like I dodged another launch day fiasco. But seriously: who didn't see this coming?


Diablo III Launch: Error 37 Gains Infamy

Diablo III's launch difficulties ran well into today. It seems Error 37 is the new arrow to the knee.

Diablo 3 had over 2 million pre-orders, 8000 midnight launches.

As with SotS II, I can sit back and enjoy this as I wasn't so foolish as to jump in on Day 1.

BTW: last I looked, the entire D3 website was offline.
