Gonna be missing the launch party, I’m out of the country until the 27th. Judging by how fast you guys have been owning up the Beta imma need a Hell rush from someone to help me catch up. :lol:
For those who played the beta, is this game too easy? The monsters don’t pack a punch and those dumb little health picks ups really make things easier. I had like a stack of health potions and only drank 3 all during fights with King Leoric. I understand it’s a beta, but I’m afraid that I’m going to have to beat the game once to unlock the harder difficulties which will remove the thrill of getting to certain bosses or events for the first time. I played the shit out of the beta and I don’t even know what death looks like.
I remember in Diablo 1 when you open that door to The Butcher… You’re basically fucked if you don’t know what you’re doing. He’ll come charging out of there and won’t stop chasing you till your dead. He walks as fast as you do and will never stop between his attacks. Going further down, I remember some areas that had walls of those acid spitter guys accompanied by a boss and you had to find some way to get close to them safely (if you’re a warrior at least). Even further down. Those damn Knights would kicks your ass especially if accompanied by those advocate dudes that teleport and shoot fireballs. Sometimes they are even paired with those succubus sluts that shoot blood star.
I just hope the difficulty is challenging like it was in the previous games.
You’re missing the spirit of diablo. It’s not like your regular console game where you pick “hardest” on your first playthrough and enjoy the story, imo diablo isn’t really about that. If you could start hell without equips or levels you’d be eaten alive.
All that said, keep in mind the beta is like 2% of the actual game (few chapters of the first act), so things should get a little more challenging further on.
Was anything really hard in D2 at the beginning?
Like did you ever die at anything before Blood Raven?
That’s how far this beta was. Until Blood Raven.
Actually the beta used to be easier. Theyve made balanced tweaks to the monsters a couple times.
Inferno is going to be stupid hard… They rebalanced the whole thing from what a read recently to make it linear instead of flatlining everything. Before since essentially every monster was lvl61, Inferno all played the same from Act I to finish.
I cant wait for the QQ. If I dont break a keyboard then I’m gonna be disappointed.
There was this article saying that they made the first chapters easy but the 3 and 4 shit get real
I suck at D2 I died two times during the first arc but shit got real in the sand(at players 8 by myself)
