I don't think there will be realms like in WoW, since this isn't an MMO. WoW worlds have a limit as to how many people you can fit in one. It might be separated into regions though, like SC2.

Correct, you can have 10 characters max per region/realm or whatever it will be called. Will probably be split much like D2 ( USwest/USeast/EU/Asia ) However you can only use to RMAH at your own region.Last edit: 2012-02-08 23:24:11 |

There will be SC2-esque pseudo chat channels.
If you're referring to the bot infested cesspools of open channels, I won't miss them. |

I've had beta for about a week now and it's a very smooth game. You feel like you're playing diablo and I'm enjoying myself. Battle.net 2.0 still blows but the game content itself is great.
One question though.. I don't like the 'quest based' approach of making games. I hate that if you want to do skeleton king runs you have to do the crown quest first, over and over and over. Is this how the game is going to launch? We can never zone into a world explore around kill some bosses etc? Will we always have to complete some lame quest we've done 10,000x before we can get to the goods?
I wonder how endgame will work.. will we just load up a game with the very last quest so we can maintain access to the entire map, waypoints etc. and the bosses will just spawn for us? Or, to do a specific boss run or specific zone will we have to load quests in that area and lose out on our endgame waypoints?
It's early and im dreadfully tired but this seems awfu, please someone save me from my insanity. |

For the quests you set it to what quest you want. You have to do cathedral levels 2, 3, 4, and the tomb to get the king, not the quest before it. It's not all that different than having the closest waypoint at cathedral level 2 for a boss run.
Also maybe you haven't heard yet but boss runs are a thing of the past. The best loot chances will come from the random rare mobs. So whats likely to be the end game scenario is you picking a quest that you want to do and running it over and over, or a quest you want to start at and play through whatever section of the game you like. To me this seems better than running straight to the same bosses over and over.
I do hope there is more to the end game though.Last edit: 2012-02-09 03:46:08 |

I was under the impression it would be a mixture or real world exploring or boss runs, they wanted to add variety so people wouldn't only have to kill bosses allday.
I also think there is quite a difference in having a waypoint for cath 2 and having to do the quest over again. If you had the waypoint you simple teleport, run through the dungeon and into the tomb. In the current method I have to save that templar over and over.. BLACK MAGIC BARES OUR PATH BUT THE WILL OF A TEMPLAR IS STRONGER!! Dear lord, I'm not sure how many more times I can hear that phrase.
Either way I'm sure the game will be great, I just wish that once you clear quests and content you can move freely between it, your game should never be 'shrunk' depending on the quest you select. Last edit: 2012-02-09 05:34:26 |

There's an option under Gameplay options with the name "enable advanced tooltips." Check that. |

I even forced my GF to use it (she's casual among casual). I feel it is an insult to one's intelligence to consider it's too complicated for him.
I mean yeah if one's don't understand 200% of weapon and can't comprehend 50% is inferior to 150% then this is the right option which should be the option by the way: "IQ below 70 mode".Last edit: 2012-03-11 13:53:15 |
