Just to be clear. I agree with you. I find the always online aspect outrageously stupid, and completely pointless. The only benefit belongs to Blizzard, it benefits in NO FUCKING WAY to end user. |

if it means no(or way less) dupes, hacks, bots then in d2, i DO benefit as an end user.
So you are wrong, garus.
And if the RMAH helps finance the servers for ever and ever, i again benefit as an end user.
And if i at some point find a really awesome legendary with just the right stats and can sell it for 50 bucks or whatever, who am i to complain about blizzard taking a cut from my FREE MONEY.
So, yeah , garus, you are wrong, oh so wrong

yeah, tell that to the 99£% who dont see it as a singleplayer game.
Even sabin isn't playing it "sp" anymore, since using the AH makes it MP.
So yeah, i feel so bad for the 1% out there who plays it as a sp ...
Or the people who cant afford to buy the game and whine because it cant be cracked haha.

You could play D2 with other people too. You could play Internet Hearts with other people too also...
This multiplayer "excuse" to turn the game into an MMO is bull.

I am not buying Diablo 3 because of it's DRM. I earn enough money to buy it but I won't touch it. If I support Blizzard with my money for this type of DRM on a single player game, I'd feel guilty if other game devs adapt it too, because it was/is a success.

so far, i played alone. Only in nm so far, Hell will probably require some teaming up. Maybe.

They can apply a significant amount of hotfix and balance changes without requiring the player to download a patch.
That's one of the perks of having so much of the data on the servers, something they've been doing with WoW for a while.
It doesn't remove the need for actual patches (obviously), but it gives them the ability to release many smaller changes immediately, instead of holding them back while making one patch. That's a great tool toward creating a smoother experience.
Now, I don't think it warrants the lack of a offline mode, I don't think ANYTHING warrants the lack of an offline mode, but I wouldn't say that there's no benefits to the end user.

As an ex-WoW hardcore player I understand fully Blizzard's goals with D3, as I see a lot of WoW-inspired both art, gameplay design and mechanics.
Translation - for me - of D3 features is taken from someone else but reflects exactly how I see it myself too:
- RMAH - legalized gold selling - oh boy, how much money Blizz lost through farmers, but not anymore!
- pay-to-win AH - got gold/money - you own, as there is no need to farm and play countless hours
- always-online DRM for a game that has a clear, major and distinct SP component!!
- no more free-spending attribute points - a component of the whole itemisation equation and full control for each class by Blizz and ofc, not the player
It wouldn't hurt for some people to reconsider corporate bullshit and treat it for what it is.

Nearly done with the second act now, level 24 and things are going considerably better now that I've found higher level items with vitality and regeneration attributes, nearly 2000 health and constantly healing has really helped though I'm going to need significantly better weapons.
(Level 18 requirement is the highest I've found so far but they still do very low damage.)
EDIT: Still the game feels significantly easier than the previous Diablo games although it has a number of improvements as well.
(It's completely pointless but I like the destruction you can accomplish and the ragdoll deaths, some more gore aside from just decapitation would have been nice though.)
(Latency is still pretty high but ~150 - 200 is far better than earlier.)
