I hope that it is Diablo 3 and it comes out soon so that people can stop spamming "wut PC game to get?
??" threads with the yarringly antiquated Diablo 2.
Diablo 2 is still the King, baby.
I can't go back and play it. The acts of the game were always are really up and down in quality (the biggest challenge in any diablo 2 replay is making it through act 2 and 3 without falling asleep), the game is missing tons of what I now consider "essential" loot and level RPG features, and it looks really AWFUL, it looked dated when it came out but now the low-res everything is even more of an eyesore with our fixed-resolution displays. The closed server multiplayer model is an unregulated, casual-unfriendly mess at this point, with powerleveling and a cryptic barter economy the norm.
I'd like to see Diablo 3 with the same sort of area/level polish as a game like WoW, with a WoW-styled item auction house and closed economy with a actual measurable currency, Mythos/Hellgate style hub grouping, and at least 2005-era graphics that actually scale to real people resolutions and don't like like feces filtered through a dirty sock. Oh, and skill respecs so I can actually experiment with my character instead of going with fixed, web-posted builds every time in the worry that I might be gimping myself.
