From what I've seen, Diablo 3 has a similar feel to what it used to in Diablo 2. The only difference I can tell is in the soundtrack. It has that "wayyyy less epic than the previous version had" feel, gnome sane? I'm gonna go ahead and stick with my guns though - I'm still buying this game.

Yeah the diablo 1 and 2 (particularly 1) soundtracks were amazing. I could listen to those songs all day.
Nostalgia, lol.

Well, this thread inspired me to re-purchase Diablo II. I lost the CD key a looong time ago. Goes for 20$ online, so I'm gonna call gamestop tomorrow. Hopefully they have it cheaper.

i hope and kind of know in the back of my mind d3 will have epic music. i love the d2 music too. it's burned into my memory from all the hours ive spent playing.
If you guys had to pick 1 character out of the diablo 3 characters at current, and one only, which would it be?
I think my starting character will either be a Sorceress or Barbarian

Tristram village theme. (Diablo II) My personal favorite. All of them are very brooding and dark, with classical type guitar picking of an asymmetrical type. Soooooooooooooooooo ambient.

the tristram theme was my favourite too. i was trying to find that song to post. thats really the emphatic diablo 2 song really. thats what i assosciate with diablo 2.
you know the diablo 2 sound track is so good that i think it might actually be pretty awesome to set it as the background music for a CEV session at some point in the future during a trip.

This thread makes me want to install D2 on my Macbook and play again.

Sorc was my first and favorite. It will be a tough choice between that and one of the new classes.
By the way, is the release date still completely in the air? Is it too greedy to hope for it to come out in 2013?

hammerdin/sorc/trapsin were my favourites on d2. i also enjoyed javazons/ww barb with e botd thunder maul 1300 dammage .
my strategy will be to pick the most imba and powerful character in the game to start, conquer the game and find all the nice items i can along the way, and then let my items and trading dictate what class i chose to progress into next. it's all about the items. i used to start with hammerdins and go from there, because hammerdins own just about everything , even without items.
i'm fairly sure the game will be released for 2012. (the world is ending after that anyway right? ) because they have set the beta for late 2011 if im not mistaken, and the beta will probably only run 3-6 months, before they prepare it for open release.
so fear not ! the wait should not be that much longer !

After I'm done filling out more job apps and lifting tomorrow, I think I'm going to reinstall D2. Being back home for the summer from college is so boring without a job. If anyone still plays this, hit me up.

I'd probably pick a barbarian or a witch doctor. They just seem the most interesting to me.
I just beat D1 again awhile ago, and it was easier then I remember for some reason.

Yeah, that was my experience with Warcraft II. I played through the whole game a few months ago. Made it through the entire Tides of Darkness campaign without any cheats, and only used cheats two or three times to beat Beyond The Dark Portal. And not god mode, just gold and lumber cheats.
The games are a lot easier when you're not 12.

Been playing torchlight to pass the time recently, it's a lot better than I expected. It's a diablo clone made by some of the diablo devs that got tired of waiting for blizz to release d3.

I still log on every once in awhile to keep my characters active so I don't lose all the good stuff I've collected over the last couple years. And remaking and leveling all those characters would be a pain, they are all over lvl 90.

I'm about to try torchlight. I have a feeling I'll need to find another game like this since the content looks short.

Magicka! It's another short dungeon crawler but really fun, especially co-op.
