My experiences and thoughts on Diablo 3!

I remember playing the beta a few months ago. I thought it was so boring and repetitive. I knew that I wasnt going to buy it. Months later, the day comes. Diablo 3 comes out and I am pummeled by all the hype. I couldnt hold myself anymore so I bought it the next day. Damn, was I impressed. I rolled a wizard and started playing with a friend. We finished it (not including inferno) in 2-3 days.. I was so hooked. I guess it was because I was playing with a few friends and the end game content was much more exciting.

I feel like the game has no skill until inferno. Everything is a gear check and then it becomes a "how well can you kite before you die" game. Almost everything in inferno one shots you. I only got passed Inferno act 1 and that’s when I decided to re-roll demon hunter because of their smokescreen ability which makes them invulnerable for 2 seconds(WORTH IT). I find it brilliant that as time goes by more and more overpowered gear enters the auction house. So essentially as people keep farming in inferno, the time will come when completing inferno will be possible. I guess they had that in mind when they were making the real money auction house(hasnt been released yet at this time). Money is tight and so far the best way of making money in the game is through merchanting the auction house. Buying low and selling high. Farming takes too long since the drop rate is so low and the difficulty is so high. I am still excited about the real money auction house since its the first game to have one implemented. My true goal is to see if I can make money with it. Well until then. Back to Diablo!!!
